can anyone offer any answers to why my 1 year old shih tzu keeps throwing up stomach acid Not enough2007-11-25 2:59:26Answers:

I would suggest that you take him to a vet because that can be serios! I dont know but just to make sure that he is alright! Or you can go on a website and look it up to see if it is anything! What ever you think is beat for your dog.

is he throwing up every time he eats or drinks? Has he been pooping? It can be a sign of an intestinal blockage.in which case he needs surgery..quickly..so call your vet.

have you been t a vet and ask them?

As my prince says, it could be a blockage. Please have a vet see him asap.

If this is all the time you need to see a vet. Two cups sounds like a lot of food for a Shih Tzu. Is he a healthy weight? Overweight dogs will also throw up because they can't handle the food. Also, some dogs tend to throw up bile when fed poor quality food. There are a lot of issues, many that can be quite concerning, with dogs throwing up regularly, and you probably need to see a vet, but that gives you some ideas.

Is it just stomach acid? A light to neon colored yellow? You are certainly feeding him/her enough, I would think much too much. My dogs had some problems with that and I added plain low or non fat yogurt to their twice daily meals. I have three dogs ranging in weight from 14 pounds, (part Lhasa) to 45 pounds (Collie/Beagle). I add at least a tablespoon to my little guys food for each feeding, who is probably quite near the size of your shih tzu.
