Both my big Audi and little Tangtang have vomited. I remember the first time I saw them vomit, I was very nervous and wondered if they were sick. Urgent rhythm. Later, after understanding the reason, I was relieved. Generally speaking, dogs often vomit when they eat foreign bodies, eat too fast or are hungry.
How to distinguish the situation? I think it can be well distinguished according to the vomit.
Make a preliminary identification according to what the dog vomits:
1. Food
Most of the food they spit out may be eaten too much or too fast, and the burden on the stomach is too heavy to digest.
This is the nature of dogs, and if they survive in the wild, they are likely to eat the food they spit out to help digestion. (Don't feel sick)
At home, it is recommended to continue to observe, do not rush to give the dog food, and gradually resume diet. If you still have vomiting, you can eat some intestines and stomach treasures to take care of your intestines. It is not recommended to go to the hospital for a long time.

2. Liquid
Dogs spit out colorless and tasteless liquid, often after intense exercise, dogs drink a lot of water, drink water too fast and so on.
Don't worry too much, just observe it.
At the same time, it is recommended not to exercise immediately after drinking water, and to add a small amount of water each time during exercise, which is actually the same as people.
3. Yellow foam
This situation happened once or twice in my family. I took it to the hospital, and the doctor said it was because I was hungry. I think carefully, because he did not give him goat milk powder mixed with food, he was picky about food, did not eat dog food, and then vomited.
Dogs on an empty stomach for too long, excessive gastric acid secretion, often spit out yellow foam.
Therefore, to avoid dogs picky eaters, dog food should be fed according to the proportion of body weight. If this happens many times, either shorten the feeding time or increase the amount of feeding. Avoid this situation as much as possible. Frequent excessive gastric acid secretion may cause gastric ulcer.

4. Yellow-green
Yellow-green vomit is a component of bile, which may be gastric ulcer and liver, kidney and pancreas problems. In this case, it is suggested to go to the hospital for examination to avoid delaying treatment.
5. Parasites
If you vomit parasites, then needless to say, you must not have done a good job of deworming.
Regular deworming is really important, both inside and outside the body!
If this happens, it is recommended to take the dog to the hospital, according to the doctor's instructions, give the dog anthelmintic, dosage according to the doctor's instructions!
6. Retching, wanting to vomit but unable to do so In
this case, it is likely that the dog eats a foreign body by mistake to block the intestinal tract or has volvulus. If it has lasted for a period of time, has not vomited anything, or the pet's expression is very painful, it is recommended to seek medical treatment immediately.
Another situation is that the dog's vomiting is accompanied by diarrhea. It is suggested that you observe the symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea. If you can't describe or distinguish them, you can take pictures and then see a doctor immediately to help you understand the condition.
Tips:
If the dog's stomach is not good, you can always have a little stomach treasure at home.
If you have vomiting and diarrhea, you can give your dog a little. You can eat directly, mix food and flush water, but the water temperature should be low to avoid losing the activity of bacterial colonies!
Daily eating a little gastrointestinal treasure can also regulate intestinal health!
Raising a dog is like raising a child, and as a shoveling officer, we are growing up! As long as we work hard, we will be able to become a qualified shoveling officer, and pets will grow up healthily!
