My bf got a frenchie two weeks ago. Over the past five or so days the dog has been vomiting. After multiple vet visits there is no sign of the cause. They have tested his blood, stool and done X-rays. He’s on a chicken and rice diet for now but is still throwing up despite being fed in small incremental amounts. We have also made sure he doesn’t drink his water too fast. There is no blood in his vomit but the frequency is alarming.
The dog seems fine, happy and playful in between bouts of getting sick. He has occasionally seemed slightly lethargic but perks right up after throwing up.
Has anyone had a similar experience?? We are at a loss as to what to do and any help would mean the world.
Edit: Not sure how much this matters. He will get sick hours after eating even with nothing in his stomach.
Edit: Thank you for feedback regarding food and food transition. Please know that a slow transition wasn’t possible originally. Don’t want anyone to think bf was careless about anything to do with the little guy.
He was also fine with the new food (before chicken and rice) for over a week before he started getting sick.
There’s no sign of inflammation. Vets just keep giving him fluids and anti nausea meds.
Edit: Thank you everyone for the feedback! In the hopes that this isn’t a more serious problem it seems most likely to be a combo of food change, chicken and now his stomach is stuck in the cycle from irritation.
Will try og food, no chicken and talk to the doc about antacids. Then ultrasound and more specific blood tests if problem persists.
Seriously thank you so much!
