Anyone a vet?

Or at least stay at a holiday inn express last night?

My dog has been puking on and off for two days. She stopped for a full day so we decided she had gotten into something and didn't take her to the vet. I have been watching her all day and there is nothing she could have possibly gotten into and she's at it again. We are actually going to the vet tomorrow, but what should I do tonight?

    You can give her some pepto bismol (the pink stuff).  Use this website for dosage recs:

    Rice and chicken...no dog food until vet tells you what's up.

    I'm a vet tech..

    Is she still pooping regularly? If she isn't pooping and is also vomiting, she may have a blockage which can be an urgent emergency.I would try to get her to the vet asap, if not tonight than as early as possible tomorrow morning. Since she is vomiting a lot, I would just give her liquids and try to keep her as hydrated as possible. I wouldn't bother with any food, she probably won't keep it down anyway and it might further irritate her stomach if something IS wrong and if (hopefully not) she needs to have emergency surgery for anything tomorrow, she will need to have an empty stomach. Good Luck, hopefully its nothing serious.

    She is still pooping like normal. It's not as much since she isn't keeping anything down though. I can definitley bring a sample in a baggie tomorrow, I didn't even think about doing that.

    What breed of dog is she? Are her gums bright red or flesh colored?
