    Should I Go To The Vet Hospital?

    I got home form work and found my dog has thrown up 5 or 6 times. Most partially digest food. I did find what appears to be part of a stuffed toy mixed in one pile. Then he threw up again in front of me, it was mostly clear fluid with just a touch of pink in one area. Should i be worried and go to the vet hospital!

    Your dog needs to be examined by a veterinarian.  Hopefully he vomited up all the pieces of the toy.  If not there is a big concern for a foreign body obstruction.  This is when foreign material (toys, socks, rocks, etc) are eaten and get stuck in the stomach or intestines.  This is an emergency.  If intestinal obstruction is present the intestines become stretched and may start to die.  This is potentially life threatening.  Your veterinarian will start with survey x-rays and may need to do a barium series to determine if your dog needs surgery to remove pieces of the toy from the stomach or intestines.

      You should take the pup in. He could have that stuffing in his intestines, and that would cause a huge problem for him. Hope this helps you out, good luck to you and your pup.
