he'smyhero Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Hero vomits a fair bit. Usually after alot of exercise or if he gets over excited. It's just clear with foam and sometimes grass or bits of food if he's just eaten. It doesn't smell or anything. Is this something I should talk to my vet about? Or am I just being over paranoid? My sister has started calling him Spewy Spewington! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Her Majesty Dogmad Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 hmh - be grateful for small mercies!!! My foster dog Mabel (she is very beautiful and I thought very rehomable) has been diagnosed with a condition called "mega oesophagus". It is incurable and she spews up a lot. There is a dip in her oesophagus and food/water/saliva collects in there and comes up - silently, on a regular basis. You turn round and there it is. Luckily I have tiles everywhere, the two potential adopters both had carpet but even if you have tiles, it is heaps of work. She doesn't always vomit on the tiles, she vomits on me with regularity, the sofa, and the other night at 4 am I heard scrabbling about and found she'd vomited on my shoes and was thoughtfully trying to clear it up ....

he'smyhero Posted August 17, 2007 Author Share Posted August 17, 2007 The other day he vomitted on my bed and he's spewed on my BF's leather jacket. We have wooden floor boards but still not a joy to clean up!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have wooden floor boards but still not a joy to clean up!! hmm do your dog have the problem of eating too fast? mine used to wolf down her food and would vomit like 5mins after eating.. i did some research and found this bowl designed to slow down dogs' eating time which really helped her slow down and the vomiting stopped. check it out at www.dapperpetstore.com. i also bought the dog bowl which prevents mistys mouth from getting all wet and brown from water stains. hope this helps! bludog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
