Dogs vomit for a lot of reasons. If the vomit appears normal, ie it is yellow, yellow and foamy, white and foamy, mostly water, or food, then it is probably okay so long as he doesn't keep doing it more than occasionally. However, if he vomits something dark, something that looks like coffee grounds, worms, blood, or something else you cannot identify, then he needs urgent veterinary care.

How do you tell if a dog has parvo?

Symptoms: Diarrhea, foamy vomit or just normal vomit, lethargic, not happy or 'not in the mood', not eating or drinking water, usually can't stay in one spot for too long. If the pups stool is black and runny this means the pup has blood in the bladder caused from bleeding somewhere in the organs. This is a very serious matter and you should consult a vet for help. There isn't a cure for Parvovirus but there are some treatments that help speed up the treating process. I currently have a dog with Parvovirus and she is really slowly recovering with Noroclav and small amounts of water forced fed to her. She has yet to approach eating. Please see a vet and help your pup, it's serious!


Why does your horses have foam coming out of its nose?

This is the way a horse can clean out its lungs of things like dust or dirt that it inhales. Discharge from the nose is normal but if there is a large amount of it and if it is a tan or green color it is time to call a vet in.

What does foamy yellow vomit mean in a dog?

Umm, does your dog have rabies? Maybe you should take it to the Vet...... O.o That's just not normal, dude. And I study to be a vet, and: 1) I have NEVER in my life heard of foamy yellow vomit from a dog, and 2) Know that's not natural and not good at all. If your dog has foamy yellow vomit, you need to probably take it to the Vet immediately. That would scare me half to death, i don't know about you.

Why does your Jack Russell vomit so much?

Dogs vomit because they can. Mechanically it is easier for dogs to vomit than it is for humans so they do it more often and usually with less serious cause. Dogs vomit when they are excited, hungry, carrying for or around puppies, just drank too much water, ate something that didn't quite agree with them, and yes, also when they are sick. If the vomit appears normal, ie it is yellow, yellow and foamy, white and foamy, mostly water, or food, then it is probably okay so long as he does it occasionally (once a week or less). If he vomits often, it may indicate allergies. Consult your vet. If he vomits something abnormal, ie something dark, something that looks like coffee grounds, worms, blood, or something else you cannot identify, then he needs urgent veterinary care. If it's just yellow or foamy, then it's probably because his stomach is empty, so increase the frequency of his meals or serve a snack between meals to keep a little something in his stomach and keep it settled. If it's very watery, then he just drank a whole bunch of water. They're more likely to do that when they drink after exercise. That's not good for him, so monitor his drinking when he is hot. It's the fast drinking that usually causes it so you need to slow him down. Let him have a short drink (a few laps), then wait a minute, a short drink, wait a minute, and so on until his thirst is quenched.
