Dog being sick (picture)

[MrAndyW]

Sorry about the image, 3 yr old Cav King Charles. Been sick 3 times today,
It's this bright green/yellow colour, small bit of grass in there that she's been eating in the garden today. But rest of them just bile type stuff, same colour,
Never seen anything thins colour before, She keeps wanting to go out into the garden and eat grass.
Is it something major or just keep an eye her and hydrated.

Thanks, a worried Andy.

Just looks like bile, my retriever/collie cross has a sensitive stomach and usually has a 'being sick and eating grass day' once every few weeks with no obvious triggers.

As you said just keep her hydrated and keep an eye on her, maybe give her chicken and rice and steamed green veg for a day or two as something lighter than her regular food.

[MrAndyW]

Thanks Mike. Just the colour of it worried me. Will give her chicken n rice Thanks Andy

I've also started giving my dog a couple of digestion supplements... Lintbells Yudigest and Animology pro-biotic (one of each a day) it does seem to have decreased his number of sick days he has

Our Cav has a really sensitive stomach and she often just yacks up like this it's mostly because shes snaffled something up on a walk that doesn't agree with her.

As said bile.

My working cocker eats grass and pukes. It looks just like this.

Thanks gents and ladies . It’s been 5 times today so still a bit concern.

Chicken and rice is what we used to feed our dogs if they were upset. When producing bile like that there was usually a piece of bone or wood that was the cause of the issue. Hope it recovers soon.

How's she feeling today?

Also try not to leave her unattended when she's feeling sick, when my dog is feeling sick and wanting to eat grass if he doesn't have access to grass he'll eat anything to hand in a bid to self medicate his dodgy stomach... including newspapers, cushions or mesh fly screens!

Our idiot German Shepherd also does this every few weeks. I tell him he's an idiot, and then make sure he gets lots of water.

[MrAndyW]

She's quiet this morning, Will keep a close eye on her as we can't go anywhere anyway !!!
not touched her dry food at all.
Luna says woof and Thanks for all your help and advice. I hate it when she's poorly.

Bless her, she'll eat when shes ready if shes anything like ours.

They make fantastic pets, here's ours.

Don't want to be a doom monger, but keep an eye out. This is how Bruce started, and it turned out he'd got a toy squeaker stuck in his guts (perhaps from before we rescued him, who knows).

5 days is a long time to have a vomiting dog without contacting a vet in my personal view

[anonymous-user]

Have you changed feeding times at all ?

One of hours was bringing up bile overnight and it was to do with feeding times.

[MrAndyW]

She only started this yesterday,Keeping a close eye on her, she's sunbathing outside at the moment. Just watching her and trying to judge when/if it becomes a vet job.
Been outside eating grass again this morning and been sick once.

Edit. She's not eaten anything yesterday or today apart from grass.

[Gone a bit AMG]

Just to echo one of the points above, our Samoyed did this when she was younger and had to have a tennis Ball, three socks and a ball,of twine cut out of her.

Fingers crossed for,you.

Grass is no good, indigestible it'll make her puke. Try a scrambled egg.

That's bile, no food in it her stomach is completely empty. If she chucks up the scrambled egg vet in the morning. If she doesn't then build with a little regularly.


Is she in discomfort when she vomits?

[Challo]

Ours have the same when they have eaten some bark or wood that doesn't agree with them.

Keep an eye on them, feed them some chicken or egg and it should settle down.

When ever I have taken him to the vet they just check they are hydrated, and give them a anti sickness injection. Back to normal in no time.

[MrAndyW]

Doesn't seem to be in any pain. Not eaten anything all day as we haven't put anything down.
Hasn't been sick since about 9,30 this morning, but drinking plenty and keeping it down. Will try her with some food tommorow.
Still keeping a close eye. Once again many thanks to everyone for the advice.

[PositronicRay]

I'd try her with something light this evening. Not kibbles, something easy to swallow and digest.
