| Vomiting Our little Dewey is 16 months old. Over the last week he is vomiting everyday. He has been on the same food, Nutro lamb and rice for the past 6 months. He chews on raw hide chew sticks also. We a kind of worried because he has never vomited much at all. It is alway partially or whole undigested food. |

| Well, that's not good that he's vomiting so much. I can't imagine what could be causing it, but hopefully the vet can figure it out quick. I've not heard good things about the rawhide chew toys so you might want to make sure he doesn't get any more for now. Hope he's back to normal soon. |

| It could be as simple as overeating. Does he have to compete with another dog for food and therefore may be eating too much too fast? I would also worry that he has a piece of rawhide in his stomach that he is trying to get rid of. I would begin by taking a rectal temperature - normal is 101 to 102.5. Here's an article you can read on the different causes of vomiting. http://www.vetmed.wsu.edu/ClientED/vomiting.asp |
