My dog threw up blood and foam after eating a bone. What now?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Golden Retriever | Female | unspayed | 2 years and 9 months old | 60 lbs

My dog just vomited foam and blood 12:30 AM. She vomited last night in the middle of the night as well... Yesterday she ate an entire bone that she received as a gift fro somebody. The throw up from last night consisted of nearly ALL of that bone in tiny pieces. She has eaten both of her meals today and has drank water throughout the day.

Poor girl. It sounds like Lemon may have a stomach ulcer or even just irritation of her esophagus. She really needs to see a vet soon to have this treated. If she otherwise seems stable and isn't extremely lethargic or have pale gums, then it may be ok to wait until morning to get Lemon seen. There are regular clinics open on Sunday such as Banfield or VCA, so its best to call them first before resorting to an EC clinic. Its best to feed her a bland diet of boiled plain chicken or lean ground turkey and white rice to help settle her stomach somewhat until she can be seen by a vet. I do hope that Lemon's vomiting episodes resolve soon! Best wishes and take care.
