Default Vet visit

We just came back from the vet a little while ago. So as I mentioned earlier, Maggie vomited this morning but then not 15 minutes later, had her usual Wellness puppy food for breakfast and was okay. She wasn't lethargic and was playing crazy as usual so I wasn't overly concerned. However, when I came home from work, I noticed 2 small circles of vomit but she was excited and playful - about an hour later she vomited white foamy stuff 3 times.

I called the vet and took her in to be checked out. No temperature, otherwise healthy and energetic, so she gave her a shot of Pepcid AC and if she's sick again I'm to take her back in the morning.

I agree about the allergies - no matter how many times I clean, if the windows are open that layer of yellow pollen reappears in seconds!! The vet agreed with that too.

Sorry for the lengthy update When it comes to Maggie, I can never say enough!!

Also - if there is anyone in MA looking for a great vet, I have one! Dr. Rachel Illingworth at the Acorn Animal Hospital in Franklin, MA is WONDERFUL - so gentle with Maggie that she doesn't even so much as wince when given a shot. She's patient and doesn't rush me with all the questions I have (and I always have a ton).

I feed Maggie a combo of different things depending on the day:
Wellness puppy food (wet)
Solid Gold puppy food (dry)
Cesar puppy food - only if I have to mix medicine because I know she'll lick the bowl clean
Boiled chicken with white rice and carrots (i tried peas but she picks them out)
Vanilla low fat yogurt for upset tummy
Frozen pineapple chunks for a treat
