Hello! My 11 week old puppy is a yorkie-chon and he has been throwing up his kibble today(he only eats a small amount). I made sure he didnt have a cough, his waste is solid, drink plenty of water, and is active and is acting normal. I just want to make sure hes okay please help!

Poor Benji! If he's only vomited once or twice, it is best to keep an eye on him. You can also offer a bland meal of boiled rice and chicken to help settle any minor GI upset. Small breeds are more prone to issues such as hypoglycemia, so making sure Benji is fed several smaller meals throughout the day instead of larger ones may help, and may also decrease vomiting so he isn't eating too much all in one meal. If he continues to vomit, or shows other signs of illness in addition to it, a vet visit is best to rule out other issues such as illnesses, parasites, foreign body ingestion, etc that can also cause vomiting.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. If he is eating, playing, and otherwise himself, I’m not too concerned about one episode of vomiting. Withold food and water for 2-3 hours to let his stomach rest. Then continue as you have been, but make his next meal a bit smaller to make sure he keeps it down ok. If vomiting persists, he is lethargic, or loses his appetite, see a vet. Best wishes to you and Guido!

Poor Guido! It could be that he's eating his food too quickly, the increased heat is upsetting his stomach, or he is playing too soon after eating. Given that he has no other symptoms and is otherwise acting normal, I'd keep an eye on him for now. Portion out his food during meals to slow down his eating, giving him a little bit at a time. Make sure he is kept indoors where it's cool, and he always has access to cool water. If the vomiting continues and/or he develops other signs such as lethargy, diarrhea, and anorexia, I would take him into a vet immediately. Best of luck, I hope this helps!
