| I agree with EVERYTHING mimimomo has said! As far as healthy treats, simple as cut up veggies or fruits will do. I give mine cucumber, carrot, watermelon, tomato, green beans. Even hard boiled egg (not the whole thing just a few bits). But remember do NOT give onion, garlic, or any cousin of those including green onion, scallions, shallots, etc. NO grapes or raisins either. They are toxic to dogs. About those store bought treats. They have a lot of preservatives in them to be able to sit on shelves for so long. Also look at the ingredients. If it says something like "meat", but not specifically saying what kind such as beef, chicken, lamb, etc, that is a big red flag. Also do give any treats made in China. Many many recalls, and many pet deaths!

| If she's throwing up in the mornings mostly, I'd try giving her a late night snack, to make sure that is or isn't the problem. Allergy testing can get expensive...

| Sometimes she trows up in the morning, other times in the evenings or nights.. It varies all the time. I will stop the commercial treats and see if it helps. If it doesn't I'll make an appointment with the vet and see what she advises me to do

| Try to keep a food diary too. literally write it down, bc just by memory is hard, for me at least! You may see a pattern as to what she ate, and then when she throws up.

| Perfect! Yes I would! And try to feed meals and snacks at as close to the same time everyday as you can, just as mimimomo suggested earlier. If you forget, the dogs will remind you for sure.

Yeah I know, there's just so much out there to think about. I give mine a grain free kibble, but on occasion they get some snacks that are grain based. I feel the grain free helps a tad with their watery eyes.But every dog is different,s o keep that diary and try to figure out what works for yours.

| I will start making a list of healthy treats ![]() The kibble I give hem contains grain so I think it'll be better to give them treats that don't contain grain

| Keep an eye out on the kibble too. If the ingredient list has that mystery meat on it, you should probably toss that out too. I don't know what you have available in your country, so I can't really give any recommendation, but just look at the ingredients, and if you don't know what it is, just Google it.

| I will keep that in mind. I give them Hills Science Plan and the vet said it's good food. But I'll definitely keep it in mind

I think you left out a very important word loll! But we know what u meant. ![]() Mine also love sweet potatoes, slice them in half & bake them in the oven for an hr. Store them in the fridge. I give them over-heaping teaspoon as a treat & it's good for you too (healthier than ice cream...I lub ice cream but my belly not so much)!
