Worms

Anyone Got Any Advice? My Dog, Rocky, Is Now 4 Years Old, And Has Had Worms Twice In His Lifetime, But The Medicine He Is Being Treated With, Is Just Being Vomited Back Up, Therefor, He Recieves No Treatment, He Throws Up Around 5-10 Times A Day, And I Just Want Him To Get Better, Any Help Or Advice? Thanks.

Throwing up 10 times a day? This amount of vomiting sounds pretty serious. He needs the vet. At the very least he will probably be very very dehydrated, and can't get re-hydrated because he won't be able to keep the water down. He most likely needs I.V. rehydration. And only the vet can fix that.

The vomiting may or may not be caused by worms. It may also not be caused by the worming medicine, not when it's as bad as this.

Some wormers can cause nausea and vomiting, but I don't think as serious as this.
