• Everydog is different too. Shadow basically throws up every day or every other day. Sugar may throw up once a week or sometimes more often.


  • CMD, is the throw up bile like, yellow? Or is she throwing up food?

    usually food. I started giving her biscuits throughout the day and she hasn't thrown up since last week. Again, its been nice out too so its possible I just did see her.


  • IMO, throwing up food is more serious than throwing up bile. The latter is usually what we see with the empty tummy syndrome. But if they are throwing up food, there might be something more serious going on. Could be the flu, or a partial intestinal blockage. If it doesn't clear up soon, I would definitely get her in for a check.


  • Well I fed my dog that ceasar wet food cause I couldn't get to the spurmarket (yes I'm a bad mom) plus we fed him some of our fast food hamburger yesturday and today he vomited bile. I used to feed my toy poodle mighty dog and he didn't have a problem (now I'm the wiser), could this just be a B thing?

    I've got a call into the vet. She threw up again this morning. It was mostly liquified food. Its odd, some times she starts the whole smiling face look but if I catch her in time and pet her, she often stops. I noticed this when I grabbed her and ran with her to the door once…. maybe she just likes to barf on the carpet only.


  • can dogs get a stomach virus from humans? my B has been throwing up though I think it might be due to a new treat i started giving him. I am going to stop and see if it clears up. he throws up food but today he threw up immediatly following the treat. Other then that he seems fine.


  • Jazzy has thrown up in the morning a couple of times – she is so awesome, she tries to wait until I get the back door open and then bolts out to throw up in the yard 🙂 -- anyway, this is yellow bile-y stuff , but there are chunks of the new treats I've been giving them at bedtime.

    Actually, it's Carry-outs, which I give them every night in their crates, but a different flavor. I usually get the beef or cheese ones, but last week I accidentally grabbed pizza flavor. They are even shaped differently.

    Once was okay, but this is now twice. She won't be getting any more of those treats.


  • yeah champ does the same..they r really smart. i was just wondering at what point do u consider the throwing up seriouse enough for the vet?

    When they don't eat/drink or everything you give them is coming up for more the 12 to 24 hours…. you must be careful about dehyration....


  • thanks, i guess it's just the snacks
