Years of research, even experts don't agree if grass makes them throw up or if they eat grass to throw up because they feel sick or if they like the taste of grass but it makes some of them throw up. If grass were in any way involved, you'd probably see grass, not just white foam.
Vomiting

Yeah he said it was an inflammitory infection. I really have issues with this vet because we have been in his office three times and he still hasn't fixed the problem. I think we are going to try another vet and see what he/she says. Anyways I try to feed her every night before bed so she doesn't have an empty stomach in the morning.

I just put on here for one that had diarrhea to try this and you might also dry toast,rive and bananas, I would use baby food bananas. You can also buy for babies Pedlite liquid that might help the tummy.
I think I would get me a new vet something not correct we have the golden rule strike three and your out. We have not had trouble with our dog and cat vet but we did with our bird and we changed vets.
Let us know take care and have a nice day.Rita Jean

I would feed the last meal later in the evening. My vet usually prescribes Reglan for nausea. I had never heard of Cerenia so I looked it up and it is a new medication for vomiting/motion sickness.
I posted this on another thread but thought it would be appropriate here.
His symptoms were spitting up but not projectile vomiting and diarrhea. He gets fed twice a day but as a pup was fed three times a day.
I had a young B that I thought had IBSID because he had some of the symptoms but not all. This started when he was about 5-6 months old and I thought it was food allergies at first. He had been on Prednisone which did not help at all and I thought it made his symptoms worse. It turned out he had an esophagus problem, along with acid digestive problems, and is now on prescription intestinal dog food, Prilosec, and Reglan. He has to eat his food with the bowl elevated so he is not bending down to eat.

jonny does this about once every other week, sometimes less. hansel has done it a couple of times. usually after eating grass when we walk. they are SO fast!

Is your B any better? My vet had me add Purina ForiFlora to my B's food once a day. She had intestinal issues when she was around Akeyla's age & the Fortiflora would even things out quite nicely - maybe you could ask about that?

This is an unpleasant question to ask, but I'll put it out there … when one of my Bs throws up the entire bowl of food that she just ate, she then tries to eat the regurgitated food. My first instinct is to not let her, but I wonder if, from a nutritional or medical standpoint, is there any reason to not let her eat it?
This is not a regular occurrence; I've had her over a year, and it's only happened twice.
All advice is much appreciated.

When a bitch has puppies, that is typically in the wild how they feed them.. and some bitches will do that with their domestic litters, my Mickii did… My Maggii did it once with her puppies, quite by accident..she had just eaten her dinner and got in the puppy pen with her pups.. they ran up and batted her in the throat.. which was a trigger for her to regurgitate.. pups were happy, she was PISSED...gggg so IMO there is no reason not to let her... sometimes the regurgitation happens for no reason... just like a "knee jerk reaction".... I let mine eat theirs if they want... of course when you have more then one... you usually find "all" of them wanting in on the "goodies"....

Ha, ha, ha…ain't that the truth! Rarely have to do a cleanup at my house when it happens for that very reason...I usually can't get there quick enough before the others start feasting away! :D:D:D
