Welcome to YorkieTalk!
You have receved some great advice. Here is mine
1. Change her diet to a higher quality kibble. Some brands that I would consider feeding: Acana, Fromm, even Wellness, Blue Wilderness. Kibbles n Bits is really garbage, so that might be her problem.
2. YES, heartworm meds are important. We order ours online at
Pet Supplies | Dog & Cat Supplies, Pet Meds | DrsFosterSmith.com Pet Products or
1800-PetMedsŪ - Huge Savings and The Best Guarantee I usually shop around and find the best price, but make sure you purchase from a reputable site.
3. As you know, get her spayed when she is done with her heat. Talk to your vet about this now.
4. Flea/tick medication is also important. I only use these during the warmer months because we don't have problems during the winter, but some people give them year round.
5. Get her a harness if you haven't already. Yorkies are prone to collapsed trachea, and walking her on a collar is not a good idea. I recommend Buddy Belts from Kristin
Designer Dog Clothes, Dog Accessories | W. Field's Dog Boutique
I would not start the flea/tick or heartworm meds until she stops puking. You don't want to introduce more things to her system until she is okay.
