My mum's friend brought my puppy over without any food or anything, so I bought that Puppy Beneful food with fruits and veggies. Could it be the change of food/atmosphere? She's really playful and doesn't seem to be sick.

My mum's friend brought over the puppy on Thursday this week w/o food or anything so I bought Beneful for puppies. Plus, I have a cat and the puppy seems to like cat food now (Cat Chow). Could it be that? The puke is not frothy or foamy. Just plain gooey. Could it be the change of food/atmosphere?

The puppy might be eating to fast, if you happen to see chunks of the food in the vomit than she is eating it too fast. I know this because my cat does the same thing. Also I have heard from my vet that the Beneful dog food brand is not nutritious for dogs, he said it was like candy for dogs. So maybe you should consider something like puppy chow.

she's having problems with throwing up because she has got such a delicate stomach and digestive system because she's so young. the fact that you or your mother's friend didn't find out what food she was having before didn't help either. you put her straight on Beneful, which has upset the balance in her stomach. she's still playful and doesn't appear sick because she isn't ill, just delicate :p

puppies get nervous too..she is in a new home and a cahnge of food suddenly will upset her tummy...go back to the original food unless it was beniful.try adding water just a lil bit and watch her eat.... she also might be eating to fast....that is bad.... and can cause an intestine to twist then it will be 15 minuts to get her to the vet to save her.

She is just a little thing, barely weaned if that.
Eating too fast is a very real possibility. Don't let her have too much food at once, but make sure she has plenty of water.

cos the pups just left a litter its used to possibly one bowl of food for maybe for 6 or 8 pups fighting over it,powdered baby milk and small portions of dog meat now and then(not to much) and gradually build up to 2 small size meals a day.If you over feed it and then let it run about and play with a belly full its going to be sick.dogs are carnivores i don't think fruit and veg will help get proper verbal advice,but don't worry to much pups and small babies are alike prone to be sick now and then.... get worming tablets all pups need wormed.

You need to get your dog to the vet. Six weeks is to young to take a dog from its mother and in most states it is illegal to sell one that young. Yes, I know yours was a gift.
