[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]What time of day does she barf bile and how recently has she eaten when she does it? My last rescued beagle had what my vet called The Empty Stomach Barfs, aka Bilious Vomiting Syndrome. Her stomach was too acidic and if she felt empty, she would bring up bile but her digestion was otherwise fine. We solved the problem almost completely by giving her a pepcid daily before bed, so she wouldn't wake up bilious, and feeding her more frequent smaller meals instead of two big ones. Pepcid is very safe—plain famotidine, no added other medications or flavorings. Check with your vet about dosage, but a regular pepcid, 10mg, twice a day has been fine for my dogs up to about 55 lbs. [/quote] Our dog is the same. We didn't have to go the Pepcid route, we just give him a dog biscuit at bedtime and that is enough food in his stomach to get him thru till breakfast.[/quote] My hound would do this too if she went too long between meals.
