Dogs vomiting yellow water and not eating or feeling energetic may be caused by ingestion of foreign bodies, indigestion, parasitic infection, gastroenteritis, pancreatitis, canine distemper and parvovirus infection. If the dog exhibits these symptoms, the owner should take it to the pet hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible to determine the specific cause and obtain appropriate treatment. At the same time, owners should pay close attention to the dog's diet and living habits to prevent similar problems from occurring.

1. Swallowing foreign bodies:

If a dog swallows foreign bodies, it may cause gastrointestinal obstruction and cause symptoms such as loss of appetite, vomiting, and diarrhea. It is recommended to take the dog to the pet hospital for x-ray examination in time to confirm the type of foreign species and provide targeted treatment.

2. Indigestion:

For dogs who like to overeat and have a fragile stomach, they may suffer from indigestion, leading to nausea and vomiting.

3. Parasitic infection:

If the dog is not dewormed regularly and refuses to eat and vomits yellow water, it may be an intestinal parasite infection. It is recommended to observe whether there are parasites in the dog's vomit. If it is not possible to determine, you need to go to the pet hospital for professional examination and targeted deworming.

4. Gastroenteritis:

It may be caused by improper diet, viral infection or drug side effects. Sick dogs will have symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, and lethargy.

5. Pancreatitis:

When inflammation occurs in the dog’s pancreas, it manifests as vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, etc. Pancreatitis may be caused by improper diet, viral infection, etc.

6. Canine distemper:

This is a common infectious disease in dogs, manifesting as vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite, convulsions, etc.

7. Parvovirus infection:

See if the dog is infected with parvovirus, which is usually accompanied by other symptoms, such as fever, eye mucus, coughing, shaking, etc.

If the dog shows these symptoms, it is recommended to take the dog to the pet hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible to determine the specific cause and obtain appropriate treatment. At the same time, owners should pay close attention to the dog's diet and living habits to prevent similar problems from occurring.
