Unhappy Advice on vomiting please - very worried !

Hi

I have a one year old Jack Russell x bitch (spayed). Yesterday evening, she threw up after eating a pigs ear, which I didn't worry about. She carried on throwing up about once an hour until just bile came up. I put her to bed last night, with no food, and she seemed OK this morning but still not hungry. I had to work all day today and she seemed OK when I got home at about 6pm but she seems very listless and has thrown up twice - both just watery (no blood or bile). She seems to be drooling quite a bit. Her stomach isn't swollen or distended and she doesn't seem to be in any discomfort if I feel it.

I rang the vets but they said it's not an emergency but she seems quite dull and listless and not like her at all - she's always hyped up and on the go.

I'm probably over worrying as I was recently widowed and my two dogs are my life ..... but can anyone put my mind at rest. I can't find any fresh vomit in the house or garden today or diahorrea.

Thanks

Mandi

Hi Mandi,
I was talking to somebody just the other day who's dog had exactly the same symptoms after a pigs ear.
Their dog recovered and was fine but the pigs ear did make her pretty poorly for a few days.
I don't feed them myself as i feel they are too fatty.
I'm sure she'll be fine,just hope this puts your mind at rest
