My doodle and his tummy!

[Jayd (Dempsey)]

Hope someone has some suggestions. My Dempsey keeps throwing up! It's always at random times, 8, 10 even 15 hours after he's eaten. I've tried everything from Pepcid in the morning (vets suggestion) to pumpkin paste with his kibble. To a raised bowl. He eats one meal a day and its a limited ingredient kibble called Signature, made in USA and its turkey flavored. He just threw up again nearly 16 hours after he last ate and there were still bits of kibble. He's not under weight remarkably and because there is no pattern to his throwing up the vet seems stumped too.... Any thoughts?? Oh, he's 2 1/2 and 78lbs. Thanks!

Karen hope you don't mind me asking but are the Stella & Chewys good? He really likes them. How many should I be giving him..20 seems like a lot!!

You should join the Food Group here on DK. It has a list on approved food.

I buy the frozen Stella & Chewy's patties for my boys.

I am in the food group. But my pup had just thrown up so I posted on the main page. Thank you for reminding me though I appreciate that.

Stella & Chewy's is not meant to be fed as more than a topper or treat for dogs over 30 lbs, for that exact reason. They don't provide enough calories unless you feed tons and tons of them; unless you have an enormous freezer, you'd have to be at the pet supply store every day, and the costs would be astronomical.

I don't recommend introducing or feeding a lot of different foods when there are digestive issues. It clouds the issue and you end up not knowing what helps and what makes it worse. Pick one canned or dehydrated raw formula and stick with that for now. No toppers or add ins. 

Speaking of treats, what kinds of treats and chews is he getting? 

[Jayd (Dempsey)]

He doesn't get treats really. I usually use his kibble but on occasion I'll give him cheese or Charlie bears but it's not frequent and there is no correlation to him getting sick. I do give him a tablespoon of peanut butter everyday (with his Pepcid)
