He can go for several months with nothing, then have these spells for 2 or 3 days, with no diet changes. There is really no rhyme or reason to these episodes. |
Is he actually vomiting...or is he regurgitating...? Vomiting is when they hack, hack, hack, hack and then boom, vomit. Regurgitating is when it just immediately comes up w/out warning - and it's usually yellowy/runny bile.
Reflux is not uncommon in dogs. For that, you give 5-10mg Pepcid twice a day. Works great.
