Any and All Thoughts welcome.
Here is the scenario:
My dog is throwing up bile in the mornings. Since January it has been four times in one week and fours days.
I am watching her diet etc.
Otherwise she is playful, eating and potty normal, sleeping normal and A+1 check at the Vet at the end of December.
haven't mentioned the trowing up yet because I thought it was diet related.

1. When we are out of town she doesn't do it.
2. This morning, I seen another bile throw up in the parking lot of building we reside in. Fresh. Either dog or cat.
3. Heard this morning another dog has began throwing up for past three to four days. Is said that "Last night" was last time.
Also said do has 15 sec. seizure yesterday and is in to see vet at 4pm ..
Asked if that dog threw up in back parking lot and answer was no. So is a different dog or cat.
4. Other dogs here, not throwing up.
5. A woman's indoor cats were reported to be throwing up bile, a lot.

Roxy started doing this as of October 2010.
Other than throwing up bile occasionally and always just first thing in the morning, she appears to be normal. No other signs of sickness.

First I thought diet. Not enough food in her belly at night when she goes to sleep. Have given her extra food nearing bed time. Some times she will puke in the morning and sometimes now. So do not think that she is starving to the point that she needs to throw up bile in the morning.
Second, thought allergy. I have been carefully watching her diet, as I cook for her. She eats the same as she does when she is out of town and doesn't throw up then.
Third, thought it was her tooth paste but she has the same brand and flavor when out of town and doesn't throw up then.

What are your first thoughts after reading this?

Since I have saw and learned this morning that it isn't just my dog, I am clutching straws.
A Virus? Worms? What else can be contracted from dog to dog that would cause this sort of belly upset? With no other signs of illness?

I do worm my dog once a year. Perhaps there is a specific parasite that needs zeroing in on?

Concerned and a bit worried. Thanx bunches in advance.
