My dog is thin and vomiting. How can I help her gain weight?

It sounds as Vinny is suffering from a gastrointestinal condition, possibly an infection. it could also be due to ingestion of a foreign body material. i would recommend taking him to the vet the first chance you get, he will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection he will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better.

Mojo needs to be examined by the veterinarian right away. A sudden change in body mass can indicate many diseases and conditions. This could even be an intestinal blockage which requires surgery or could be fatal. You need to play it safe and have Mojo examined today. Best of luck.

It sounds as Gottit is suffering from a gastrointestinal condition, possibly an infection. it could also be due to ingestion of a foreign body material. i would recommend taking him to the vet the first chance you get, he will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection he will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better.

This is obviously very abnormal, unfortunately this symptom is very general and could be caused by many diseases including intestinal worms, cancer, IBD, pancreatitis, kidney failure and many more. i recommend taking her ot the vet ASAP in order to get it checked and treated.

If the weight loss is more than 10% of the her body weight, this could be abnormal and should ideally checked. Gastrointestinal abnormal absorption of nutrients may be present and should be investigated. Usually chronic gastrointestinal inflammations/infections are responsible for it. I would start with a blood test and some imaging procedures of the abdomen (an ultrasound).

Poor Prince sounds extremely ill if he just throws up food and is extremely skinny. In my opinion, this is a medical emergency and he should see a vet right away. He could have a foreign body preventing him from keeping down food, or a severe GI illness. He needs veterinary care now to diagnose what is causing this problem so he can be treated. Please take him into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website.

Noticeable weight gain in a short period of time is indeed cause for concern, especially if Danika has always been thin. An exam with your vet followed by abdominal x-rays are strongly recommended. Contact your vet and discuss payment plans or alternative financing options such as CareCredit (www.carecredit.com). You can also contact local humane societies for information regarding low cost clinics in your area. You may also be able to obtain financial assistance through Red Rover (www.redrover.org).
