First, call the vet.
Second, to keep her worm free when this is all over and she's better, keep her on Interceptor year round (very affordable).
Third, keep the water intake to small, frequent amounts. When she has been able to hold this down, slowly give VERY small amounts of cooked rice, you can even cook it in fat-free chicken broth. When she is able to hold that down, you can add a small amount of boiled chicken.
Most importantly, call you vet and ask for advise about the de-worming medication.
Good luck.

have you tried giving her chicken (ovened) or how about some canned puppy food, i dont understand because most dogs that have worms are very greedy, are you sure she has worms? anyway to stop her from getting dehydrated scoop water out of her dish with her hand & into her mouth, if you dont then she will dehydrate & go into shock & thatll kill her, if she wont eat anything but you can keep her hydrated then she will eat when she feels better. but if she isnt eating & is throwing up her water she WILL be very dehydrated, do that with the water every half an hour & you will save her life. can you get some glucose powder tomorrow and add about 2 tablespoons full to her water, that will keep her energy up because she isnt eating, even put a little bit on her tongue , you will see her perk up. do everything you can & best of luck xx

It isn't WOOP worm it is WHIP worms. If your dog is not eating or drinking it sounds like your vet needs to keep the dog for observation and continual fluids. Dehydration is a bad thing.
Keep calling your vet until he/she does something

first what kind of worms is she being treated for and where did you get the dewormer. if you bought something over the counter get her to a vet now she is poisoned. if she is being treated for heartworms get her to the vet now before she dies on you. she is a very sick dog take her to the vet if she can't keep anything down she need to be on fluid therapy.there is noting that you can get to stop the vomiting only the vet will have that kind of medicine.

all the above solutions are incorrect. hear to a vet. Your canines became taken care of and exceeded a roundworm (the long one). The small ones are segaments of a tapeworm. Tapeworms do no longer usually ensue on established fecal assessments that are performed interior the health center. they are additionally contributors of the "flat" malicious application relatives... all the different worms are "around" worms. Tapeworms require a various drugs to kill them. call your vet and he will prescribe the propper meds for the tapeworms. good success.

This is NOT normal. Please call the Vet right away and tell them what you gave the dog for treatment. If the meds came from the Vet, they will handle this emergency quickly. Don't let it go any longer. The animal is probably dehydrated and needs fluids right away.

Go to your vet and ask for help your dog is probably having a reaction to the treatment.

Get her back to the Vet. Some dewormers can be toxic to sensitive dogs.
