So my puppy just threw up after drinking two bowls of water. She chewed up a ball and swollowed the pieces earlier along with some paper. Is that the reason she threw up? Her stomache was HUGE! And when i press down on it, she acts as if she's about to throw up. He tummy is all full of AIR though. I can feel it. So now she's outside eating a lot of grass. Should i let her eat the grass? What should i do? She does not have parvo because she already had it.

Let your dog eat the grass. This can help them to throw up the things that are making her sick. If your dog ate plastic I would make your dog throw up. The plastic can cause serious problems such as blockage in the digestive track. To make your dog throw up get some Hydrogen Peroxide 3%. Force 1 tsp down your dogs throat. This will cause your dog to throw up.
Try to keep the toys that she can rip into small pieces away from her.

I would say that her stomach is very upset right now and that because she ate the ball her belly is going to be bloated. As far as the eating of the grass-that is normal. All dogs eat grass when the are sick. If the problem doesn't clear up by bed time or definately by morning go to the vet asap.

No don't let her eat grass!!! I gaurantee that will perpetuate the vomiting. If you are really concerned, call your vet in the morning. Pieces of the ball could become lodged in her stomach or intestines and cause a blockage. Vomiting in a small puppy could lead to dehydration and if not corrected death, or the pup could be perfectly fine and get over this with no ill effects.

Yes, cats and dogs eat grass when they have a tummy ache. Let her eat the grass it soothes there stomach. IF she keeps throwing up then take her to the vet.

1st off for dogs grass works like Advil. let her eat the Grass as long as there is no kind of pesticide on it. it is most likely the ball and water making her sick. if i where you i would just give her a little bit of dinner and then tomorrow try and get in to the vet. good luck

Never Press a dog or cats or any animal's stomach after it has eaten!!!
second never let your dog eat grass
His stomach might have felt like i had air in it but it really had stuff in it plus the air and the air hlped push out the food
But either way its normal for a animal to throw up, my cat throws up all the time:
Suggestion give him some food, water and let him rest

No wonder she threw up if she drank that much water and swallowed some of the ball. It's normal for dogs to eat grass, that's what they do to settle their tummys.

Umm I'm not sure about the first part of your question, but i know that her eating grass is bad.. My dog actually threw up the other day because i let him eat grass... They eat grass because it tastes sweet to them.. I think they have pseudo grass at pet stores.. try Pet co.. they should have it.. Good luck
