hopefully not, but he may of swallowed something, and got it stuck.
my border terrorist has done that trick and had to have a op, on the other hand, its been pretty hot, i dont know why they think its good to re eat it after its been thrown up!
sure he will be ok, maybe just needs some anti-b's or a jab of something.
i had to get mine sedated last week just to get his ears cleaned lol

ray give him something earlier and hes settled down now on the sofa, he seems to have attached himself to me since i have been here, and goes into a depression when i go out or sitting up the table rather than the sofa. hyes a real attention seeker and gives it the sad look if i dont wrap my arms round him every minute

ah thats good news then lol

mines the same, cus i mostly take him everywhere, he now gets seperation anxiety if i have to leave him. trouble is i dont know if he settles down after a while and starts again when he hears my car, we worked out every single time i get about 2 miles from house hes jumping around going mad barking! (barely barks otherwise) there isnt a lot of other noise here.

id see how he is tomoz, but maybe still worth a checkup at vets.

Dogs eating grass and then being sick is a heredity instinct that they used in old times to remove parasites from their digestive system. 

My lurcher, given half a chance will be out in the garden searching for any long grass to do this every week of two. 

If my dog has a stomach upset, then I stave for a day, but make sure they have plenty of water at all times and then feed him boiled chicken and rice or egg and rice.

You can do what we used to do with the greyhounds when they had the wobbles. Plain and simple 'rennies' and it worked a treat. Many vet remedies are but diluted forms of our medication anyway and for simple things like that just  a nights starvation with CLEAN water only will do no harm a dog can go days without food as long as it has plenty of fresh water.
Many dogs get upset stomachs and the craps this hot weather due to either drinking dirty water from outside or garden slugs which they seem to relish (UGGGGGH).
The more common cause is the use of fly sprays and air fresheners in the home which then settle on the top of the water bowl and they drink it! Before using a fly, or any other type of spray cover their food and drink bowls.
In the meantime Richie...plenty of TLC....like ours it looks spoilt rotten too

Great to know that normality has resumed. Heat does affect dogs badly and some breeds more than others.
Mine fell off the bed acting daft cos he has a habit of burrowing under the pillows but as he is nearly blind he smacked his front teeth when he hit the floor...no damage just a bit of pain and now we have to feed him milk every hour or so and doses of junior disprin every 4 hours.
No doubt he will play on it for as long as he can........not that he lacks attention anyway
