Why are all my dogs sick with vomiting, diarrhea, and not eating?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Female | unspayed | 2 years and 2 months old | 50 lbs

My girl has been sick for 3 days now. Started with no eating and now has some diarrhea and is throwing up it's a yellow foam. It started in my youngest puppy and now all my dogs are this way, though the youngest who had it first is all better, but the others are taking longer to recover it seems, they do still drink water, their nose is still cool to the touch but dry. No blood that I have seen. What do you think this is? Will they all recover like the youngest and she is 5 months old.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding your dogs. I worry that they have an infectious problem if all dogs have the same symptoms. It is best to seek veterinary care if the others are not recovering. I worry that they will become dehydrated from losing fluid in the stool and vomit even if they are drinking some. Fecal testing may be recommended depending on the exam findings. If an infection can be diagnosed, preventive measures an be instituted to prevent a recurrence. I hope this information helps!
