| he may be hungry and it is causing him to get sick. just a thought but maybe a healthy later night snack might help to reduce his stomach issues in the morning.

| I feed him 3x a day and usually his last meal is around 6.30 or 7.00pm...in the morn he eats around 8.00am.....could it be too much protein or could it be because of heat or dehydration? i always have fresh water out but i do notice he doesn't drink a lot...thankyou for any input |

Even older pups and dogs will do this from an empty stomach. Feeding a snack or a small meal just before bedtime usually alleviates the problem.

| There are two dogs here that will do this from time to time. I began feeding them 8 to 9 am,a snack during the day (usually a BB cookie),sometimes a carrot stick when I am cooking dinner and then they eat their last meal around 8 in the evening. If I feed them their dinner to soon in the evening they cannt make it all the way to breakfast. When Mina was growing alot,she just needed more calories during the day. |

| Doing this occasionally may be normal but on a daily basis is not normal. The yellow he is vomiting is bile that comes from the liver. Sometimes the liver will secrete additional bile when there is a problem with digestion. I can't tell you what he is having an issue with. It could be his food or it could be treats you are giving him. I would watch this carefully if it get worse speak to your vet again. |

| Emy does that too....not every morning, but she throws up that yellow stuff, and then goes right over to her food and starts eating....I'm trying to narrow it down, cause I give her a bully stick for about an hour in the morning, then I take it away from her, I put it in the refrigerator. I'm trying to see if there's a correlation or not....though yesterday she had her bully stick and this morning she was perfectly fine.....she finishes her food about 5:00 pm, she likes to eat her food when we are eating dinner....so maybe I'll give her a few kibbles of her food in her dish right before we go to bed, though she might not eat it or be hungry, she'll eat a treat though....its not something that happens regularly the throwup....just every now and again, so maybe her stomach is empty.... |

| 13 hours is probably just to long for him. I'd try either feeding him a little later at night or earlier in the morning, maybe both. I've never had problems with Yumi doing this, but Yuri did it a lot as a puppy. He was always a crazy picky eater, so even leaving kibble down for him, he would refuse to eat it and end up sick. Yumi on the other hand has only puked up bile a few times, and it was full of Yuri fur from when he started shedding this spring/summer |

| Ziva still does this if she is being picky about her dinner and I forget to give her a latenight snack. Also happens if she eats to many green beans the day before.(3 is ok 5 is too many) |

| I think I'd talk to the vet about this. I don't think it's normal.

Senior Yorkie Talker | My yorkie Kagan did this most of her life she passed away a few years ago. When she did this I noticed it would help if I gave her something like bread which helps to absorb the acids in her stomach which lessoned the occurances also if she ever had loose poos I gave her a slice of bread and it really helped

I would just feed a small snack before bed to keep his tummy full. If it continues, I would express your concern again with your vet.

| It is not normal as a daily thing. Being a little puppy the vet may have thought it was something minor that the pup was having trouble adjusting to a new food. Something that happens as a daily occurrence over a period of time is not normal. If feeding a small amount of food before bedtime does not help then it needs to be taken up with the vet. The liver should not be over producing bile as a regular thing and bile can be very destructive to the stomach lining over time. Possibly there is something in the food that does not agree with his particular digestive system but that is only a guess. I'd check the fat level of his food first. Certainly you don't want this to go on over a long period of time. |
