    I'd get him to the vet and have him checked over thoroughly. Blood work should indicate any problems. What kind of puppy chow are you feeding him. My girlfriend has a year old shepherd that didn't eat much at all considering she's right at 100 pounds. My friend changed dog food and Heidi has an appetite for the first time. I hope all goes well for you and your puppy.

    A heartworm test won't do any good until the dog is at least 6 months of age. Parvo test can be done but they usually aren't unless you suspect the dog has parvo.

    Is this just one isolated case of vomiting or is it happening quite often?

    I wouldn't worry too much if it was just this once. If it is happening often I'd get him right to the vets.

    What type of food are you feeding? If it's a decent brand I wouldn't worry too much about that either, he's probably still adjusting and 2 cups of a decent food should be sufficient anyways for his size.

    How has he been?
    Soar high & free my sweet fur angels. I love you Nanook & Raustyk... forever & ever.
