In the process of raising enough dogs, sometimes dogs get sick. When dogs are sick, they will vomit and have a loss of appetite. However, dogs vomit not only food. Let’s talk about why dogs vomit yellow liquid? Generally there are 4 reasons.
1. Prolonged hunger or overeating
If a dog is hungry for a long time or overeats, it will cause damage to the gastrointestinal tract and cause vomiting of yellow liquid. In this regard, it is recommended that owners adjust their dogs’ eating habits in a timely manner and feed their dogs regularly and quantitatively.
2. Gastroenteritis
Dogs suffering from gastroenteritis will frequently vomit yellow foam in a short period of time, and will also be accompanied by symptoms such as listlessness, loss of appetite, high fever, stomach pain, and even blood in the stool and vomiting blood. If the dog is found to have the above symptoms, the owner should take the dog to the pet hospital for examination in time and use anti-inflammatory drugs for treatment. If the dog has severe diarrhea or vomiting, antidiarrheal or antiemetic injections are needed. In addition, owners should feed their dogs some foods that are easy to digest and absorb to reduce gastrointestinal burden.
3. Swallowing foreign bodies
If your dog accidentally swallows plastic, foam, chicken bones, fish bones and other foreign objects, when the foreign objects irritate the intestines, it may cause the dog to vomit yellow water. At the same time, the dog may also suffer from loss of appetite, salivation, scratching of the throat, etc. If it is suspected that the dog has swallowed a foreign object, it is recommended that the owner take the dog for a pet check in time to check the location and size of the foreign object. If necessary, the foreign object can be removed through surgery.
4. Infectious diseases
If the dog is young and has not been vaccinated, it is important to consider that it may be suffering from canine distemper, parvovirus and other infectious diseases. In addition to vomiting yellow water, dogs may also experience symptoms such as elevated body temperature, continued decrease in mental status and appetite, sneezing, and coughing. In this case, it is recommended that the owner take the dog to the pet hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
