Lexi has had several bouts with vomiting. The Vet said that dogs are programmed to eat everything and they vomit up what isn't good. He advised giving her 1/2 a caplet of pepto bismol. The caplets are rounded and go down better. Also, pill pockets by Greenies are a Godsend! The bout before last I had her spayed and it upset the bacteria in her stomach and had to be on antibotics to balance out the bad with the good. She got better within a day or so. The latest bout she ingested something poisonous which I think was a mushroom. I pulled one from her mouth when she was outside. The mushroom had hardened and really looked like a piece of wood. She spent two days with an IV flushing out an inflammed liver and is now back on another round of antibotics.

Try the pepto and go to the Vet. These dogs go downhill very quickly. Hope your baby is better!!!!!
