What if my dog vomits yellow stuff and it's hot and lays around like normal?

Question

She is usually active in the morning and lays around from noon until late afternoon.

Answer 1

call the vet and get her checked out, she could be very sick!!!
how many times has she vomited? and is up on her shots?

Answer 2

I also had this problem with my male pekingnese. As you know Peke's have the pushed in face and every so often (though more in the warmer months) he would just puke up this whitish yellowish foam. Not alot and not a little. We asked the vet if it should be something to watch and worry about .. and he said that most dogs with pushed in faces dont get enough air through the noses and get congested? or something along those lines. There's really nothing that could be done for him. It was just a spot here and there every couple of months and as long as it wasnt too frequent the vet said that I didnt have to worry about it. I just hate cleaning up puke though! I have to admit, it does gross me out! But anyway, what type of dog do you have? It could be just flem (congestion) or .. do you notice that he pukes a little after you take him outside? It could also be an allergy to something outside maybe. You can ask your vet to also check for allergies. Hope that Helped a little!

Answer 3

Vomiting once is not a cause for alarm vomiting a lot is. You should be fine, my dog vomited up grass last night after running around in the heat, I just kept an eye on her and she didn't seem to be bothered by it.

You'll know if your dog is acting differently, that will be your sign to take him to the vet.

Good luck

Answer 4

He might heave eaten something outside but if her behavior is normal the she should be fine my dog is the same she lays around too until it's a little bit cooler outside since this heat wave has hit us she has been hanging in there on her daily walks if I let ther walk w/o the leash she would just run back into the house she doesn't like being outside in this hot weather hehe.

Answer 5

My dog does this too. The yellow liquid is actually stomach fluid. The only way the dog can get rid of it is to throw it up. Don't worry, this is normal for most dogs. If you are particularly concerned, feel free to go to your local vet office. They can give you medicine to feed your dog to prevent this from happening again. However, once the stomach fluid is out of the body, so is all of the other liquid. Make sure you fill your dogs water bowl, and give him access to it at all times. Good Luck!!

Answer 6

I would call the vet just to be safe. It is probably the heat, so I would make sure she has plenty of water so she does not get dehydrated.
I don't know is she is outside a lot, but if she is and you live some place really hot, you could look into getting her this mat as well:

But again, I would call my vet just to run it by them. It's normal for a dog to vomit, but not for them to vomit every day or over and over again.

Answer 7

Your best bet would be to call the vet and ask. Vomiting is never 'normal'. What color is the food she eats? is it yellow? It could be the heat that is bothering her, but still I would call the vet and double check.

Answer 8

Well, the vet's is always a good idea in this sort of situation.
Dogs tend to eat stuff they shouldn't and puke a lot.
There are nuts out there who put out poisons, too.
So to be on the safe side I'd go to the vet's.

Answer 9

You should ask your vet. She could have eaten something poisonous to dogs and the only real way to find out is to setup a vet appointment.

Answer 10

Yellow is bile, and an empty stomach. Check with your vet to be on the safe side.
