My 3 month old AS just threw up five times. I am not sure why but I did catch him eating the cats' litter (with feces) yesterday. I also noticed that a bucket containing decomposing snakes (non poisonous) and full of dead maggots was turned over and half its content missing..... which means he must've ate some of it.
So what should I do.... all animal hospitals are closed today.

What is he throwing up? If there is blood in it find an emergency vet. Other wise take him out to some grass that you know is clean and free from pesticides if it is just something bad he ate and has an upset tummy he will eat the grass and it will usually make him barf again but will bring up what is making him feel bad. If he is throwing up yellow stuff with foam this is usually what happens when their little tummies are empty. Has your puppy been dewormed? Worms will also make a puppy throw up. Take him out to eat some grass and watch him carefully and check to see how he goes to the bathroom. If there is blood in his stools or in his vomit take him to the vet. Dogs eat cat feces all the time , they shouldnt but they like the taste I guess. Make sure he drinks plenty of water and keep checking his stools and what he throws up. The grass should do the trick. Even though it is none of my business but maybe not leave dead rotten snakes laying around where the puppy could get them.

Well I hope your puppy is more than a month old. You should not take puppies anywhere until they have some shots and the sick puppies could indeed have Parvo, coccidia, Camphylobactor or any number of icky things. If you puppy eats some things but then pukes and is NOT pooping - may have a blockage - some times they work out - sometimes they need surgery. Assuming you are real and not a troll there are a lot of things that your puppy has access to that are bad for it.

Why on earth so you have something like this laying around??? Especially with a puppy around??????
Most towns have emergency vets. You just have to open up the phone book and find them. If they don't, there are usually vets on call. Try calling them and seeing if they leave a "for emergencies" phone number.
And please, don't leave anymore dead things laying around your house. It's a health hazard for your dog and for you.

Wow i'm glad that you noticed that your dog was sick soon enough... Some people don't notice for a few days. If your dog did swallow maggots and snakes than he is bound to have a stomach ach. I highly doubt that any of this will be of much long term harm to him, but he could catch a virus or something from the decomposing flesh. Sometimes to get all of it out ( I know this sounds gross) You have to force your dog to drink (temporarily of course) A little bit of hydrogine peroxide. The fiz and chemicals in it will force yourdog to throw up the remainder of it's stomach content. He/She may be queezy for a while... But in the long run it should be fine!
Good LUCK!

The Vets in your town should be on call. You REALLY need to call one and have her looked at. She could have pacreatits or blood poisoning, both of which are fatal.

He might have swallowed something plastic, eaten something bad... My dog swallowed a ball and was throwing up for a week, he'll be fine, but bring him in tomorrow. If your grass is clean, not sprayed, let him eat it for now... There's medicine in it for dogs.
Good Luck!

keep an eye on the pup and see if there's an emergency clinic is open. depending on the size of your town you MIGHT have one.
and puppy proof your home!
