| Help quick!! !Please--- Vomiting Brown Liquid OH MY GOD! All of a sudden i woke up today and there was brown liquid on the pad and i thought it was diarreah but she just now vomited on me brown liquid. i am so upset i can barely type. she was with me 24/7 these past few days. i have been raw feeding for about a week to 10 days and shes doing great-no diahreeah. im trying to think of what happened yesterday. i took her to the doctor with me yesterday,, walked her for the first time in the park, but it was very hot out even at 6pm. lets see-i did pull her a bit on the leash to encourage her to walk. but she wears one of chattiesmoms harnesses. i was eating some beef with ketchup, but i never gave her any. she might have licked some juice or ketchup off of some fabric. um-when we came home from the doctor the rugs had been cleaned-but we tried someone who does safe organic cleaning and she wasnt down on them any way. and she was not walking much-i carried her alot and when she did walk she was wearing her leash because im trying to potty train her and keep her with me at all times. i cannot think what this could be. |

| She might just have a little stomach upset. Mine have had times where they vomitted maybe once or twice in a day then they were okay by the next day. I would just keep an eye on her

| She may be purging her system of crap from the new raw eating. This is not that unusual and can happen up to two weeks after feeding raw. Keep an eye on her and if she appears to be okay and does not continue vomiting, I wouldn't worry about it. If she continues, she may need to see the vet to make sure she doesn't dehydrate. Occasionally, you will hear someone say that "raw can be too rich" for them, which is not necessarily the case. Hope she is just fine!!!

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | I don't think it's the raw, since it's bee 10 days. Heat stroke (or, even mild) can happen very quickly - or maybe it was just enough to make her queasy. She may have grabbed something in the grass. I would feed her if she'd hungry bc food can settle the tummy. Or, feed her some saltine crackers first - that can help too - wait 30 mins, then feed the raw.

| Could she have some how eaten poop - as this would cause a stomach upset and the brown vomit |

| I wouldn't say it is the food too fast. If is is only one day of vomiting, it could just be a bug. If the vomiting stops and you start raw again and it starts again, then I would say it is that. Although most dogs can handle it, some can't. Do you know if she has a compromised immune system?

| She just went potty (wee wee) and it looks a little like yellowish with a verry verry light brown - or I don't know, maybe I'm imagining it. I just fed her her lamb and she went for it like GANG BUSTERS. I'm wondering if one meat is richer than another. The lamb seems verrrrry rich. Maybe I should do the chicken and only give her the lamb very occaisionally. I've been feeding lamb every day now for about three days. should I switch back to the chicken? Or does it not make a difference? |

I would be forcing fluids as long as she isn't throwing them up. If it is dark after rehydrating, I think I'd see the vet. Are her gums pink?

| To force liquids you use a syringe. When I've have to do this in the past, I usually give 2 cc's at at time, once an hour.
