Not sure......Need help

by Toby's mommy

My Boston; Toby, of course like many BT has a tendency to throw up. Normally I would not be worried however, It looks like he is throwing up blood (as it is Red in color) He acts fine, Playing, Doing his tricks, running, sleeping(Aside from a few nightmares), ETC. He has thrown up like this twice, he is fine before he does it and fine after he does it But I an still worried! Can this be from table scraps? Could this be heart worms? or is this some thing else.

I don't think it should be red unless he has ingested something red. A vet would be able to check him out for heart worms and other ailments. When is his next appointment? Call the vet and see if he thinks it can wait.

Best bet is never to feed table scraps, but I know how hard that is. It's especially hard when you tend to drop a lot on the floor like our 3 yr old grandbaby!

Let us know what you find out.
