Dog vomiting yellow bile in the morning?
My female greyhound has been vomiting yellow bile early in the morning
or in the evening when she hasn't eaten for a long time about once or twice a week. She eats a lot of grass from the back yard and will throw up big clumps of grass or will pass clumps of grass in her stool. She has vomited bloody clumps of grass a couple of times and had bloody diarrhea with grass in it a couple of time. She wil sometimes act sick after vomiting and not want to eat or she will be fine and want to eat. She has had a complete work up at the vet ( x-rays, blood work, ultra sound, stool sample) and everything is normal. Is this all from eating grass? Could it be reflux gastritis? |

You don't say what sort of grass she's eating but some grass is rough to downright sharp. I remember chasing a friend through an overgrown field and ending up with bloody weals on my legs. Since she enjoys eating grass you may want to provide her with a tray of nice soft, tender bluegrass specially planted for this specific purpose. This is also good in the winter as it can be brought inside when the weather turns cold so that she can continue to graze. Also, since you mention throwing up bile when it's been a long times since her last meal, she may do better being fed smaller, more frequent meals. Kathleen |
