My yorkie is about 5 years old. We leave food out for her all the time because we never know when she is going to eat. She only seems to like to eat when both my husband and I are home. When he switches to night shifts, we aren't home together for very long, and it's like she forgets to eat or is too excited to eat no matter how mauch we try to get her to eat. So, then what happens, is after about a day of not eating, her stomach starts making these gurgling sounds and then she eventually vomits. If I can get her to eat something when I start to hear these sounds, it's usually only a treat or two or cracker, she ends up vomitting that up. If I can't get her to eat anything, she ends up vomiting bile and sometimes blood.

What can I do to stop this from happening? Is there something I can give her to calm her stomach once I hear this gurgling sounds? Anyone else have this problem with their yorkie not eating regularly and then vomitting because of it?
