Puppy threw up, stomach noisy. Is this normal? What can I give him?

Question

Puppy eliminated this morning, threw up about a half hour ago, ate it, then eliminated again. Seems normal otherwise, stomach is making noises. Is this normal, can I give him something to calm his stomach? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Male | unneutered | 2 months and 18 days old | 30 lbs

This is not necessarily normal, but is quite common. This is not specific to any disease, but indicates that something is either directly upsetting his stomach, or generally making him feel nauseous. It's best to just give his stomach a rest for now and it's not necessary to give him anything at this time. I reccomend not letting him eat for the next six hours, but provide plenty of fresh, clean water. Feed just a small portion at his next meal and wait two hours to see if he keeps it down. If he does, then you can feed a little more and then as normal at the next meal. For more information about vomiting and when to take him to the vet, I recommend you read the article at the link below. https://www.petcoach.co/article/diarrhea-vomiting-in-dogs-when-to-call-your-veterinarian/ If you have further questions or need further clarification, then you may consider having an online consult with one of our vets on Petcoach. This way, you can send unlimited pictures and have a text conversation with a vet. I hope that helps and Jorah gets better soon.
