My puppy is vomiting daily for 5 days. Is she dehydrated? Vet or home?

Updated on September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Beagle | Female | unspayed | 2 months and 16 days old | 3.3 lbs

My puppy mocca has been vomiting at LEAST once a day for 5 days, i thought it was because i changed her food brand when i adooted her and i wasnt able to get a sample of the previous brand because it was imported. She vomits a big amount, looks like all the food i give her but she poops and pees normally... the vomits its light brown, doesnt look like it has blood or anything. It worries me she might be dehidrated or something... can i treat her at home or should i go to the vet? Thanks

It sounds as Mocca 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 her to the vet the first chance you get, she will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection she will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better. if the vet thinks it is more serious she will need a blood test and possibly an ultrasound in order to find out what is wrong.
