I HOPE IT TOOK! i think it probably did. Theres a followup treatment for 2 wks from now...so anything we miss should get fixed then but as much as this poor boy has been dewormed in the last few months HE BETTER NOT get them again. We'll see i guess. Sometimes i do get a little worried again about his throwing up..he doesnt do it when i feed him slow with pauses for burps..but i thought we were making progress with his chewing each piece, and that i wouldnt have to do this feeding FOREVER, but when things like today happen, it makes me wonder/worry once again if i will ever be able to feed him like a normal dog..or if he has something we need to find out about.
i am going to look into stress colitis, though i dont think this is the reason for throwing up..cuz he is terrified of everything, and i dont know if he'll get over it. I mean, he sees a leaf or pinecone, and cowers away scared..like hes NEVER seen any of these simple items..is he going to get over this? or does he need some anxiety meds? cuz he jumps/cowers every time ANY noise happens, if i cross my legs he jumps..and pretty much any other random thing scares him.

Sounds like kennel cough. My two male yorkies both react to the vaccine with these symptoms. It is respiratory and can be treated with antibiotics. Did the Vet mention this?

nope, he has never said that. i did think of that tonite for some reason, which is very ironic..the shelter wrote in his records book that they vaccinated him for bortetella when they got him...that would have been early feb cuz i got him feb 7th, and i noticed the throwing up starting about a week after i got him...still sound like its that??!! im gonna look it up, but since you have experience id love your advice:)

have you tried the ear or eye wipes as well cuz i can get a 3 pk for 20 dollars (ear, eye, and teeth) that has 90 pads for each and i was thinking that would be better if they work:)

I didn't always associate the mucousy vomit with eating. The two dogs just seemed overwhelmed with secretion. I likened it to excessive post nasal drip that had to come up because their heads were too stuffed up to eat and breath at the same time.?

talked to vet. he doesnt think kennel cough or reaction to vaccine. he was reluctant to do bloodwork bc he thinks it'll come out clean, but we're going to do it anyway on friday! we'll talk about our options then i guess. im still considering switching vets bc he doesnt seem to be trying very hard to find out what it is, and he CLEARLY doesnt know.
