Vomiting in dogs is very common, and it can be a sign of lots of things, from mild to serious. Some dogs will vomit once and then seem fine afterward, while others will vomit regularly. Some dogs will be fine all their lives and then become really ill with vomiting. The consistency of the vomitus and what it includes, as well as other symptoms your pet is experiencing, can all be clues as to what’s causing it.
I’ve been a vet for over eight years, and in that time, I’ve seen hundreds of cases of vomiting dogs. Some have just eaten something they shouldn’t have and are right as rain in a day or two, while for others, it’s the first sign of something more serious going on.
