Question:

: HI,
: I have an 11 month old JR, and almost every morning he vomits bile. I've taken him to the vet and she said that the reason was because he was hungry and had an empty stomach. But the thing is, he WILL NOT eat in the morning. He throws up and still won't touch his food. I've told my vet this, but she insists that he is just hungry. I was wondering if you've ever heard of anything like this, or if there is a way to make him eat his food on his own. I've tried switching foods and everything, I just don't know what to do. Also I was thinking on maybe getting a second opinion from a different vet if you couldn't help me.

If this were my dog I would be getting a second opinion at the nearest Vet school. It is hard for us to tell what is going on since we can't see the dog.
Good luck and let us know what happens.
Regards
Linda
