<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nDogs vomit more often than human beings. However, sometimes vomiting is a signal that something is seriously wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Common Causes:<\/strong> A fast ingestion of dry food, a sudden change in their diet or the ingestion of something that your beagle\u2019s body cannot digest can cause acute vomiting.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAnother possible cause of vomiting is worms and parasites and worms (roundworms, Giardia, Coccidia).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A foreign object can block your beagle\u2019s digestive tract and this can cause sudden and repeated vomiting. The ingestion of poison can also be a cause for sudden and repeated vomiting. Other signals of obstruction are lack of movement and bloating. If this is the case, you should consult with your vet immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What signs to watch for<\/strong>: When vomiting is a serious health issue, it is often accompanied by diarrhea, lethargy, behavioral problems, etc. Plus, when a beagle vomits several times, it can indicate that something is worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThese are the two forms of vomiting that you should worry about:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Acute Vomiting<\/strong> \u2013 If your beagle vomits several times suddenly, it may indicate an emergency and should get immediate treatment.<\/li>
- Chronic Vomiting <\/strong>\u2013 If your beagle vomits every week without fail, it can be a signal of a chronic problem connected with another illness or allergy.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
What to Do<\/strong>: If your beagle vomits more than once or shows signs of additional illness, see a vet immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThis is the treatment that Pet \u2013 WebMD recommends:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nIf your dog is healthy and has vomited only once, you should withhold food and water for about 12 hours to give your dog\u2019s stomach time to rest.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nAfter that, give your dog a few ice chips or a small amount of water (a quarter to half a cup, depending on your dog\u2019s size) to see if they can tolerate it. You also can give them a small amount of pediatric electrolyte solution with the water.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nIf your pet seems fine with the water, offer a couple of tablespoons of bland food, such as boiled chicken breast and rice, every few hours. If he keeps it down, you can slowly reintroduce his regular diet. If he throws up again, see your veterinarian.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nYour veterinarian may prescribe antibiotics, a diet change, antiemetics (drugs that help control vomiting) or other medications. Follow your veterinarian\u2019s recommendations on what is best for your pet.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
