All that you will accomplish is your poor pup will continue to be ill and the cycle of vet bills and office visits will continue. She needs to go back to the vet, you need to explain to the vet that she did not finish a prior antibiotic and that she is sick again.



And, besides all of that...I really doubt an antibiotic is needed for vomiting.

She needs to be seen and evaluated by a vet.
