My dog is wheezing and throwing up. Should I take her to the vet?

This sign could be compatible with an upper respiratory tract inflammation/infection or eventually to a chronic tracheitis (inflammatory, allergic, infective possibly kennel cough). A clinical examination at your local veterinarian is essential to confirm these clinical suspicions and treat appropriately. Antibiotics may be needed. Please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.

It sounds like Snoopy is suffering from an upper respiratory infection. Since he is obviously having a severe cough, it would be prudent to take him to your veterinarian for an exam. This could be a simple kennel cough, canine influenza, or even a heart problem (congestive heart failure can cause pulmonary edema which in turn can cause wheezing and coughing). Please make an appointment with your vet before the weekend.

Wheezing noises could be a sign that Popcorn is still nauseous or has abdominal pain. If she aspirated when she vomited it is also possible that she is having some difficulty breathing. If she is still making these noises you should see a veterinarian as soon as possible. If the wheezing has resolved it is likely nothing to be worried about. I hope she's feeling better!

It sounds as Zazu 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.

Labored breathing and vomiting are very concerning signs. In an older, large-breed dog like your girl, I would be worried about bloat as a possible cause of her symptoms - this can be a life-threatening emergency, so needs to be treated right away. Many other things can also cause vomiting, including pancreatitis, liver or kidney disease, exposure to something toxic, or an intestinal obstruction. Based on your description, I would recommend taking her to the emergency vet tonight - she may have a serious problem that can't wait until morning.

Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. Venus could be dealing with a respiratory infection. I would recommend having a veterinarian examine her so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. She will likely need to be on a course of an antibiotic to help fight the infection. I would also recommend having chest x-rays taken to assess her lungs. 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.
