gracie is sick!
i knew Gracie hasn't been feeling too good because she's had the "squirts" and just wanted to sleep all day. then just now she threw up the biggest pile i've ever seen. it was all the feed she ate this morning and possibly from last night. there was even the egg i put in her food for more protien.
she's sleeping in her crate now, but i'm worried about her.:( since she just threw up all the food in her belly should i hold off on food for a while or feed her so she has something in her belly?
i'm freaking out! my baby is sick!:(

Has she had the Big D for more than a few days? If so, I would schedule an appointment with the vet.
As for the food issue, you should withhold food for 24 hours, but ALWAYS leave a water source. You might even want to give her a little chicken broth to entice her to drink more. Your primary concern for now is to keep her hydrated. I would also give her two teaspoons of Pepto Bismol. Chances are she just ate something different and her stomach flora isn't used to it, but a visit with the vet wouldn't hurt. Better safe than sorry :)

Sending Get well wishes for Gracie to be better.

Chances are she was just being a puppy and ate something she shouldn't have. However, like Giselle said, it's vital to keep her hydrated. If she stops drinking or starts throwing up even after drinking, she needs to go to the vet immediately. Dehydration can kill any dog quickly & especially a puppy.
Hope she's fine soon.

I hope it's just an upset tummy and she's all better tomorrow.

Oh, I hope Gracie feels better soon!:(

I hope Gracie feels better soon.

Please keep us posted on Gracie. I hope she's doing okay. She probably ate something the disagreed with her. Get well soon Gracie.

If she isnt drinking well she really needs to see a vet. She needs to go IMMEDIATLY if she has a fever, too.
We thought we could wait out Jillians fever, D, and vomit, after only 2 days we had a nearly dead puppy.
-
I hope she is better, soon.
-
Hopefully, it's just a temporary thing, I hope she gets better.
-
I hope that gracie feels better soon!:(
I agree with the other poster,chicken broth will be easy on her stomach.

Poor Gracie! When you start to feed her again, add some canned pumpkin to her food. It will firm up her stools.

i've given Gracie some pepto, but she threw it up. she has thrown up about every half hour for 3 hours now. i called the vet and he said if she is still doing it in the morning to bring her in. i'm not going to get any sleep tonight. i can't sleep while my baby is hurtin.:( she's drinking plenty of water and whether she's still vomiting or not we're taking her to the vet in the morning.
