My puppy Marley had a training class yesturday where the instructor feed him chicken and some hot dogs as treats. He was okay last night but this morning he woke up and threw up yellow. And just recently he threw up all of his food. I am not sure what to exactly do. We just went to the vet for his tummy issues and I still have some digestive care wet food but he has been okay for over a week now up until this morning and what happened yesturday. Please help!!

Poor Marley! It could be the hot dog has upset his stomach, leading to the vomiting. I can give you a home remedy to try to see if that helps. Withhold food for 8 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet. If the vomiting continues in the absence of food, he vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, he will need to see a vet right away. Best of luck, I hope this helps!

    I would recommend removing all food for 24 hours, but try to get Beaulah to drink a small amount of water frequently. You can check a rectal temperature, if it is over 103 the illness could be caused by heat stress or heat stroke and your dog should be seen by a vet for appropriate treatment. Other causes of vomiting include bacterial or viral infection, food intolerance, intestinal blockage, intestinal parasites, or other causes. If your dog continues vomiting tomorrow it should go to the vet for sure.

My dog just threw up like this, what could it be? He has never thrown up like this. He had not eaten anything, yesterday i got him new treats, and earlier today i gave him a few kibbles duck flavor as treats that he has never had before.
Poor Iker! It could be the new treats you gave him causing the vomiting. A sudden change in diet such as new treats can causing GI upset. I can give you a home remedy for him to see if that helps. Withhold food for 12-24 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet. If the vomiting continues in the absence of food, he vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, he will need to see a vet right away. I hope this helps!

My puppy got into dog food bag and ate so much he got bloated. that same night he threw it up and cleared his system, but he began to throw up yellow after that. he drinks water but can’t seem to hold his food dow now. I am not sure what to do. He st
Marley is probably suffering from gastritis and an over distention of his stomach from eating some much food all at once. The stomach lining is probably very irritated and is making him vomit up anything else he eats or drinks. I would recommend withholding food for about 12 to 24 hours. If he does not vomit during that time then you can start to re-introduce a bland diet, like plain boiled chicken and rice, and see if he can keep that down. If he is not able to stop vomiting, becomes lethargic, or has diarrhea you will need to take him to the vet to be examined. Small puppies like this can get dehydrated rapidly and he may need fluids support and medication to help stop the vomiting. I hope this helps. Thanks for using Boop by Petco. Best of luck.

No, I wouldn't make either of them vomit. Keep an eye on the puppy for now, and I can give you a home remedy for Elke to see if that helps. Withhold food for 12-24 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in her normal diet. If the vomiting continues in the absence of food, she vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, she will need to see a vet right away.

Poor Maxiie! He could have a GI illness, may have eaten something rotten, could have a foreign body, or could have pancreatitis. I can give you a home remedy for him to see if that helps. Withhold food for 6 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet. If the vomiting continues in the absence of food, he vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, he will need to see a vet right away. Best of luck.

A change in diet can certainly be a cause of vomiting, and since Sunshine had a new food recently, that may the reason behind her vomiting. I can give you a home remedy to try to see if that helps.

Hi someone gave my dog raw meat he threw up four times ate some grass and drank water atm he's not vomiting but sitting quietly
Poor Dobby! It sounds like the raw meat has upset his stomach, and I can give you a home remedy to try to see if that helps. Withhold food for 12-24 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet. If the vomiting continues in the absence of food, he vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, he will need to see a vet right away. In the future, I would refrain from allowing anyone to give him raw meat. Good luck, I hope this helps!

I got a dog friday and he ate some food saturday and now he is throwing up do you know what it could be?
I'm sorry that new dog is sick! The food that Loki ate on Saturday could be causing his vomiting. He could also have a GI illness, foreign body, or pancreatitis. I can give you a home remedy to try to see if that helps with his vomiting before having to take him into the vet. Withhold food for 12-24 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in Loki's normal diet. If the vomiting continues in the absence of food, he vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, he will need to see a vet right away.

My puppy is vomiting
Poor puppy! This vomiting could be caused by a severe GI illness, eating something rotten, a foreign body, pancreatitis, or even parvo if she isn't fully vaccinated. If she has been vomiting for less than 24 hours and not vomiting multiple times per hour, you can try a home remedy to see if that helps. Withhold food for 12-24 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in her normal diet. If the vomiting continues in the absence of food, she vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, she will need to see a vet right away.
