New puppy threw up after drinking water, now drooling. What's wrong?

Congrats on your nephew's new puppy, but I'm sorry that Mia is sick! While puppies can have reactions to deworming treatments such as vomiting, dewormers are typically very safe. An allergic reaction to a deworming medication would be very rare. In addition, it should not still be sick from the deworming treatment days afterwards. To me, that suggests there could be something more wrong with her. Given her age, she won't be fully vaccinated, and one of the diseases I would be most concerned about is parvovirus. This is a very deadly disease of unvaccinated dogs, and it's extremely contagious. This causes vomiting, and dehydration from this vomiting will occur especially if she can't keep down water. Dehydration is the number one cause of death in these puppies. Because I can't see her in person to rule out parvovirus or another cause of the vomiting such as a GI illness, eating something rotten, or a foreign body, I do think having her seen by a vet now is for the best. Please take her 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. Best of luck, I hope this helps!

It could be some water went up Charlie's nose if he had a full bowl, or drinking too quickly after playing could have lead to nausea and a bit of vomiting. If he's otherwise acting normally, I'd keep an eye on him for now. Best of luck.

If he has indeed produced vomit (as apposed to retching without getting anything up), and he’s drooling but playful, it’s reasonable to give him through the night and see how he is in the morning. The drooling is probably because he’s nauseous. If he seems dumpy or lethargic in the morning, or if he’s still drooling or continues vomiting or has no interest in food, you need to take him in tomorrow. I hope that’s helpful! Thank you for asking Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!

Congrats on your new puppy, but I'm sorry Borris is having some issues. This excessive drooling could be due to the stress of the new puppy, and it's good that it's starting to get better. It could also be due to something like dental disease or nausea. If this drooling continues over the next 24 hours, then have him checked out by a vet. Best of luck.

Hello. It sounds like your puppy just got carsick. If she feels better after waking, & is able to hold down normal amounts of food & water, then she should be fine. If she continues to act unwell, do see your veterinarian as soon as possible. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

Vomiting can be a sign of a number of different problems ranging from minor issues like eating a non-food item from the yard to more serious diseases. Sometimes after vomiting dogs can feel nauseous or weak, so I wouldn't be too concerned about Poochie not responding to his name unless he also seems disoriented or extremely lethargic. If the vomiting continues or he continues to act very abnormal you should see an emergency veterinarian. While it is probably okay to drink a little water I wouldn't encourage him to drink too much as this can sometimes trigger more vomiting.

Hopefully, this is a viral condition that will be self limiting. However, if the puppy is not adequately vaccinated I would advise you have him evaluated by a veterinarian as soon as possible and tested for parvo.
