Puppy Vomit

[inbox]

Hi everyone

My 7month japanese spitz just vomitted. I was sitting there rubbing his stomach area and neck, then all of a sudden he just vomited. The thing that concerns me is that it looked like blood but smelt more like food. I'm thinking he may have some allegic reaction to the treats I give him which is the natures gift beef liver treats since it also had the same colour of it. Although I have been giving this for quite awhile and previously had a problem with him gnawling his feet and scatching his neck making, which the vet thought it was some food allergy. But we couldn't really pinpoint what was causing it and I just wanted to know how would I know if he has this food allergy?

I'm really worried it maybe blood and just hoping it was either because I was rubbing his stomach and caused it (has never happened before though..) or a food allergy to the long time(3months or so) treat. Before this he was just in his pen sleeping, so there wasn't any hard workout previously.

He's stool and pissing routine has been normal throughout and been feeding him the same thing which is the advance kibble and wet food.

I've attached a picture of what it looked like, well dabbed in tissue and also felt this jelly like substance in it.

Any thoughts? I just hope its not serious though.

If he is constantly throwing up then get him to the vets.

If it's a once off then more then likely he has eaten something his tummy doesn't agree with. Keep an eye on him.

As for how you would know if he is allergic to the treats? Don't feed them to him and see if the symptoms go away. Alot of dogs can also be allergic to dry food, because of the grains in it, and processed wet food because of the presevatives and other junk that is in it.

Also note whether he's bright and alert or acting sick. Dogs vomit easily and some of them do it far more often than one would like. Often it means nothing. If the pup is acting sick, then I'd see a vet. Otherwise, I agree with the previous post . . .
