My puppy is 8 weeks old and hasnt had her puppy shots..She just spit up some foam..Any advise or info?

One word:


V-E-T, and NOW. It could be parvo, which is fatal if it's not found in time.My puppy is 8 weeks old and hasnt had her puppy shots..She just spit up some foam..Any advise or info?
Well occasional vomiting IS common with puppies. It was probably foam because all she had was water in her stomach...That's usually what happens to my dog when we bring him in the car...





Sometimes puppies vomit because they ate something they shouldn't have, and sometimes its because they ate and then jumped around too much and upset their stomach.





Does she seem okay now that she vomited? Or is she acting funny or sick?





You may want to call the vet if she doesn't seem okay, and if she vomits again definitely make her an appointment.My puppy is 8 weeks old and hasnt had her puppy shots..She just spit up some foam..Any advise or info?
She is probably fine. Puppies throw up and that it probably all it is. I would get her shots. Parvo is where they are usually passing blood and won't eat or drink. They are usually very sick acting as well. Rabies is were they have to come in contact with an affected animal's saliva. (This happens by being bitten licked or drinking the water that an animal with rabies has drunk out of.) There is probably nothing to worry about, but you might want to call the vet to be on the safe side. We have several dogs, and throwing up slimy foam stuff is common in puppies. (Especially if they haven't eaten for a little while, and they get car sick.)
Your dog might have PARVO, which can kill your dog! Or it might be rabies EITHER WAY take your dog to the vet!!!!! Also my dog sometimes accidentally chokes on spit or chokes on some type of food, and then she will be ok, just let her be. Think back . . . Has she ate any thing big? or did she make a weird coughing-type sound and scrunch her neck together a couple times before spitting it up?


When i first got my puppy she barfed 7 times on the way home, some times dogs barf when they are stressed or nervous or uncomfortable! Maybe let your dog sleep in your bed, give your dog somewhere special and comfy to relax/sleep in! Make her feel special, like a petite doggy princess!





THIS IS THE #1 DOGGY NONO!!!!!!!





NEVER EVER MAKE YOUR DOG EXERCISE AFTER EATING . . . IT KILLS THEM, THEY CAN GET A TWISTED STOMACH. (ever seen/read Marley %26amp; Me?, yes, thats how Marley dies )': )








I just say you go to the vet like everybody else said, she could have something serious or something harmless, you never know what is going on with animals because they cant talk! So who cares about the money go and save your dogs life . . . maybe try to find an emergency dog hospital!
Puppies spit/throw up for many different reasons... switching to a new food too fast, drinking too much water, eating grass, etc.


Feeding her rice could help soothe her upset tummy... You could try it and see if it helps. If she doesn't feel better in a few hours and/or has a fever, bloody loose stools, is lethargic, etc I would take her to the vet to ASAP get her checked out because she could have parvo.


Parvo can be fatal to puppies.
You better take her to the vet b/c without getting her puppy shots, the dog will get sick.





Why are these puppy shots so important. The answer is simple - puppy vaccinations save the lives of puppies just like yours every single day.
You better get her in for her rabies shot, I think she has it if she spit up foam. Also, watch again if she foams at the mouth, or gets a bit agressive.
Keep a very close eye on her. and get her puppy shots! If she keeps vomiting she may have parvo which an kill her! Make a vet appointment ASAP!
where do you live? i have a human sociesty where i live it it charges 15 bucks for all his shots including microship!!
My advice is..you should take the puppy to the vet. It should have seen a vet by now for it's first health check up
i would take her to the vet now!!!!!!!!


good luck!
might be rabies probably take her to the vet
taker to the vet IMMEDIATELY!!!
