Sounds like you have provided your own answers. I like to talk through my questions too. Overfeeding can definately lead to vomiting. I agree that a full cup of a premium dog food seems like too much for a 5 pound dog. The bags seem to always encourage overfeeding! When mine have been in heat, they do not eat nearly as much and do wind up vomitting some. My little Sadie was sick the whole time she was in heat. I felt sorry for her. She just looked miserable and did not want to play. I held her a LOT trying to reassure her. I kept thinking she must have cramps. You can ask the vet for a med to calm her stomach while in heat. It is a white liquid but I cannot remember the name.
