Dog vomiting white foam after pest control. Is it poisoning? First aid?

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. I'm so sorry to hear about Dapple! I am concerned about a few possibilities: toxin - I am not familiar with the plants and animals native to South Africa but we have a few in the states that can do this parasites- a worm burden in the stomach or small intestine can cause this bleeding disorder - certain tick borne illnesses can cause bleeding ingestion of an acid or caustic agent, heat stroke, bleeding ulcer, electric shock, and cancer of the stomach or intestines can all ado this. I would recommend seeing the vet as soon as possible. He or she may recommend bloodwork and/or medications to stop the vomiting and ease nausea. Best wishes to you and Dapple.

Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question about Gizmo. Poor boy. It could be he is experiencing an abnormal reaction to the flea medication, but it could also be he has a severe illness like kidney disease, GI illness, liver disease, heart disease, or even cancer causing his symptoms. He sounds extremely sick, and I do not think you should wait until tomorrow to take him into a vet. You need to take him into an ER vet immediately. Best of luck.

I would recommend that you have Jenson re-checked by your vet. This round of vomiting may be related to the previous episode, or may be something completely different. Possible causes of vomiting include dietary intolerance or indiscretion, food allergy, intestinal parasites, GI blockage, IBD, bilious vomiting syndrome, among others. Since he seems otherwise fine, your vet may start with an intestinal parasite screen and x-rays to check that it doesn't look like he ate something that may have gotten stuck.

Your poor pup! She may be quite ill. Vomiting in dogs has many causes, some serious and others not so serious. The amount of [vomiting](https://www.petcoach.co/dog/condition/vomiting-1/) along with her symptoms are concerning. This could be caused by [pancreatitis](https://www.petcoach.co/article/pancreatitis-inflammation-in-dogs), a [foreign body](https://www.petcoach.co/dog/condition/foreign-bodies-in-the-small-intestine-in-cats-and/), or a severe GI illness. Given the number of vomiting episodes in a relatively short period of time coupled with the fact she is bringing up white foam, ideally, she should be physically examined by your veterinarian or at the nearest veterinary ER. A complete exam and diagnostics (blood work, x-rays, etc.) may diagnose the underlying cause. Afterwards, the appropriate treatment can be administered. Supportive care (IV or subcutaneous fluids, anti-emetics, etc.) can be administered until a diagnosis is reached.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Coco. Unfortunately, we cannot access your previous questions so do not have any of her case history. You may wish to do a consult with a veterinarian here at Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach for more detailed information. If she is still sick despite seeing her veterinarian, then I suspect she will need a further work up. She may need blood and urine testing, fecal testing as well as x-rays of her belly. I hope this information helps!

There are many reasons why Koko could be vomiting. It can range from parasites to Parvo. It’s impossible to know what the cause is without a detailed history, a physical exam and testing for parasites and viruses. Puppies don’t have the reserves that adults and they do dehydrate and can have problems with low blood sugar which can be fatal if not treated. I recommend to have Koko visit his veterinarian to be examined. Feeding Koko a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken and boiled white plain rice can help to settle the tummy. Smaller, more frequent meals are also easier on the tummy. I hope he starts feeling better quickly! Please feel free to post any additional questions.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Cedar is very cute! I think Cedar should be seen by someone today. If he has finally settled down call your Vet first thing and get an appointment. If he is coughing the "vomiting" you are witnessing could be a the end of the cough. Sometimes a dog can cough so hard they trigger their gag reflex and bring up bile or white foam. So if every vomit follows a cough, Cedar may actually be coughing and not vomiting. Causes of coughing are kennel cough, pneumonia, allergies, bronchitis, heart failure. He is 8 months old so I would assume kennel cough is the number one possibility. If he has been boarded lately, around other dogs, at doggy day care or the groomer that will make it more possible. Causes of true vomiting are: dietary indiscretion, foreign body, toxin, viral/bacterial infection, pancreatitis, etc. I wish you the best of luck and a speedy recovery for Cedar!
