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?

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.

That could be due to gastrointestinal upset. Parasite infestation and dietary related vomiting could be the reason for the presenting signs. Antiparasite treatment may be needed. I would suggest to start feeding with a bland diet based on boiled chicken and rice in small portion every 6 hours for the following 48hours. Then gradually reintroduce the normal diet over 5 days. I would definitively recommend a veterinary check up if the signs persist or you notice diarrhoea, more vomiting, lethargy or inappetence. Please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation (where you can post pictures ) if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.

Hi, and thanks for your question. These signs could be compatible with an inflammation infection of the gastrointestinal system and surrounding organs (like pancreas and liver). A clinical examination at your local veterinarian is immediately essential to confirm these clinical suspicions and treat appropriately. Antibiotics and possibly further investigations (like abdominal imaging as ultrasound or radiographs) may be needed.
