However, last night after dinner, she threw up for the first time in days. Could this be because of the introduction to the raw diet? She is otherwise full of her usual energy and gives no indication of feeling sick.
Hope you don't mind if I butt in here, girl . The paw thing - could def. be seasonal - go to www.pollen.com - and check your area - right now it's off the scale in my area and Marcel is at his paws. So, it may be the time of year - or, it could be food related.

As for the nausea - I kind of doubt it's bc of the raw - esp. after a few days. Could she have gotten into anything? Is she still on antibiotics? If she is, the combo of antibiotics and diet change could do it (or, the antibiotic alone). So, see how she does and try to continue. Is she on lamb or? Give her a smooch for me!
