Why does my young dog throw up food right after eating and re-eat it?

It could be that Archi eats his food too quickly, leading to him vomiting. You can try feeding him out of a slow feeder bowl, which you can find online or at a pet store. I'd also recommend a check up with his vet to make sure everything is ok health wise. Best of luck.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Arnold. Vomiting is worrisome in a young puppy. Unfortunately, there are many causes. It could simply be due to the stress of coming to a new home. However, infectious causes are common in puppies. It is easy for a small puppy to become dehydrated. He will need to see as veterinarian if the vomiting continues. He will be examined and fecal testing may be needed. Based on these results, treatment can be started to help him feel better. I hope this information helps!

Hello and welcome to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. I am sorry that Murphy is vomiting. I would be concerned about a few different problems including a persistent right aortic arch (PRAA), or a sliding hiatal hernia. These are congenital malformations that can cause vomiting/regurgitation especially after eating. I would try to get a video of the episodes to see if it is true vomiting vs. regurgitation as this will help narrow down possibilities. It is not normal for him to vomit that much. I hope you get it all sorted out soon! Best of luck with Murphy!

Since he is so young and this isn't the first time he has regurgitated I would recommend having a veterinarian take a look at Oliver. There are congenital issues that can actually cause an animal to regurgitate. Your veterinarian may want to do some chest X-rays to rule in or out these abnormalities. I would just make sure that he is actually regurgitating not vomiting since the list of differentials would be different for both. In the mean time you can try watering down Oliver's food so he has to chew it more and potentially sit him up after he eats. You can also add some wet food to the dry food to see if that helps. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

I am very sorry to hear that Maggie is experiencing these problems, There are a number of potential causes of such clinical signs, including pancreatistis, parasite infestation, infection, and ingestion of a toxin or poison, or even an gastrointestinal obstruction. It is also possible that Maggie is simply eating too much too fast. If the episodes continue over a 48 hour period, Maggie seems dull or depressed, in pain, ha sprifuse diarrhoea or vomiting, I would take her straight tot wh vet. Your vet will be able to perform a physical exam and run diagnostic tests such as bloodwork to determine the cause of Maggie's vomiting. In the meantime you can continue to monuitir her at home. Rest her stomach for a few hours. Then try smaller meals three times a day. Try a bland diet of boiled chicken breast and white rice for a few days and provide plenty of fresh water. I hope that answer was helpful and more importantly that Maggie feels better soon. Warmest regards to you both.

This is definitely something that can occur as a result of how fast food and water are ingested. The maze dog food bowls work great or the bowls that only dispense a small amount of food at a time. You can try and elevate the food bowl and see if this helps. If the episodes become more frequent then I would recommend having a veterinarian take a look at Pepper and consider switching to a different food. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

Hi there! I'm sorry to hear about Pola's troubles. I have seem dogs vomit because of their stomach being empty for too long in between meals. Vomiting after eating however could more likely be a sign of something else. Maybe Pola's food no longer agrees with her or she's getting a sensitive stomach. Also, can you think of anything Pola may have gotten into? Dogs can get things stuck in the stomach that can cause partial blockages or even chronic irritation. I would make sure you are giving Pola her total amount of food split into 2-3 meals every 8-12 hours. Also important is if Pola has started eating faster because shes being given less food to eat. Eating too fast would make her throw up too. She may need to eat from a treat dispensing ball or something like a pickle pocket to make sure she's eating slowly. If this doesn't go away in another 5 days or so I'd have her evaluated by her veterinarian. They can help you streamline her diet and also make sure she doesn't have anything else going on. Best of luck!
