Pet Knowledge
This article is provided by Veterinarian Dr. Sarah Davis
Dogs vomiting what they eat may be related to esophageal foreign bodies or intestinal blockage, gastrointestinal diseases, liver and kidney problems, food allergies or poisoning, parasitic infections, etc. Owners should take their dogs to the pet hospital for examination as soon as possible to find out the cause of vomiting and provide targeted treatment. At the same time, in daily life, we should pay attention to providing dogs with light and easy-to-digest food, avoid feeding human food and spoiled food, and conduct regular deworming and physical examinations for dogs.

1. Foreign bodies in the esophagus or intestinal blockage:

If the dog accidentally eats food that is difficult to digest or is too large, or there are foreign bodies in the intestines that are blocked, the food may not pass through the intestines, causing Vomit.

2. Gastrointestinal diseases:

Gastroenteritis, pancreatitis and other diseases may cause dogs to vomit frequently. These diseases may be caused by the dog's irregular diet, eating spoiled food, etc.

3. Liver and kidney problems:

Dogs’ liver and kidney diseases may also cause vomiting, such as hepatitis, nephritis, etc. These diseases will affect the dog's metabolic function, causing toxins to accumulate in the body and causing vomiting.

4. Food allergy or poisoning:

If the dog is allergic to certain foods or eats toxic substances by mistake, vomiting may also occur. It will also be accompanied by symptoms such as skin itching and diarrhea.

5. Parasitic infection:

If the dog is infected with parasites, such as roundworms, hookworms, etc., vomiting may also occur. These parasites will live in the dog's intestines and affect the dog's digestive function.

If the dog vomits what he eats, it is recommended to stop feeding immediately and take the dog to the veterinarian for examination as soon as possible to determine the specific cause and receive corresponding treatment. At the same time, you should also pay attention to your dog’s food hygiene and habits to avoid similar situations from happening again.
