| Yes we got Panolog cream. But he started vomitting today four times already and won't eat his food. I have tried Purina Puppy Chow as well and nothing. I don't know what to do... |

Luvs Lulu Donating Member | Well when a pup is throwing up a bland diet is best not changing his food. Give him some boiled chicken and plain white rice. It will help settle his stomach.

Luvs Lulu Donating Member | Offer him a bit of nutrical now and the bland stuff. A small pup at that age can have a hypoglycemic attack and that will be very bad. There are several top tier foods. I feed Merricks. A few other good ones are: Chicken Soup Wellness. Do a search on here and you will get a list of good foods.

| hope your baby feels better soon!! beth gave you lots of great info! do a search on premium foods, to feed.. you will find a ton of info! and like she said no corn, wheat, or by-products!! we feed a variety to our girls... we feed a RAW diet (nature's variety canned & RAW, ziwi peak canned and dry, the honest kitchen) and we leave a dry kibble down all day.. so they can eat if they get hungry! good luck!! get well soon baby boy!

| When the vomiting started, had you just changed foods? Is he up to date on vaccines? Any time a puppy is throwing up, unless there was a food change, the best thing to do is go to the vet. Even if you can connect it to a food change, four times is too many for a pup and you might need to go anyway. Are his gums pink?

| Hi welcome to YT i'm new too! i would advise you to call the vet and tell them about the vomiting see what they say, its best to be safe, they should give u some advice on him not eating also! becareful with a pup that age coz of hypoglycemia! as for food, when i first got my yorkie it took a while to find a food he liked and also i just changed him to adult food and it took a while as he had an allergic reaction to the food i changed him to so had to get one which is for sensitive tummys which he loves and is really healthy on! alot of yorkies have sensitive tummys! the food is from england so don't think you can get it over there but the flavor is ocean white fish and rice its the only flavor his tummy can handle.just some ideas for you. hope it helped! but i would definatly call the vet to see what they say! hope your little one feels better soon |

| Everyone thank you so much for your wonderful advice. I gave him boiled chicken last night and he ate every piece of it. But this morning he throw up all the chicken. So i'm about to call my vet and take him over. I'm so sad and nervous, this is my baby and i don't want my first experience with a dog to be this way. Pray that he gets better. I will keep everyone posted. Jen |
