| Pukeing Puppy Jeter has been puking bile for almost a week now. He does it once, sometimes twice a day. Other than that, he has no symptoms. He is eating well and playing. Any ideas? He is just over 8 months and just over 7 pounds if that is an important factor. |

| I am afraid to call the vet due to the fact that they want him brought in for EVERYTHING. I would spend my last dime on him, but dont want to unnecessarily. Thanks for your well wishes. |

| Sheryl, something is going on... Call your vet and just talk it over with them. Express to them the fact that you are on a budget, and just ask them for suggestions. If you do decide not to take him in, please make sure you are keeping him fully hydrated at all times. Is he choking on something he is chewing on? Have you switched foods? I have never known a pup to throw up for a week solid without some medical reason. I would bring him in if it were me... Good luck! Let us know how it goes.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | How many times a day is he eating? Maybe spread out his food in to more frequent meals.JMO

| He eats twice a day, breakfast and dinner. I have been transitioning his food since Sunday..gradually getting him off of Nutro and onto Chicken Soup. Is it possible for him to get sick from being around so many people? He comes to work with me and has lots of "friends". It is just so strange that it is just bile...not food. Called the vet, they are closed, just my luck. |

| Loki pukes up yellow liquid when he drinks COLD water too quickly. We make sure he gets room temp water.

Donating YT 10K Club Member | My understanding is they will puke bile when their stomachs are empty. It's happened a couple of times with Trace. Perhaps leave out some kibble for him to munch on during the day
