What should I do if my Chow Chow suddenly vomits?

If the Chow does not have more severe vomiting symptoms, the Chow should be fasted for 24 hours and the Chow puppies should be fasted for 12 hours. You can continue to supply water, but not too much. The size is 50-100 ml for small Chow Chow and 200 ml for large Chow Chow. If the Chow has finished drinking the prescribed amount of water, the same amount of water can be given after 30 minutes, but not immediately.

What medicine should Chow Chow take when vomiting?

1. Chow can also use subcutaneous or intramuscular injection of antiemetics. The drugs and usage are as follows: antiemetic: 0.5 to 2 ml each time, 2 times a day; metoclopramide 10 to 20 mg each time; hydrochloric acid Pomorphine: 0.04 ml per kilogram of body weight. Amor: 1 to 2 ml each time, 2 times a day. Hydrochloric acid or compound chlorpromazine: 1 to 2 ml per kilogram of body weight, twice a day.

2. Oral rehydration salt: If the sick Chow refuses to drink it by himself, it can also be administered by force, or it can be administered through a gastric tube.

3. Intravenous rehydration: that is, directly replenishing body fluids through intravenous injection. This generally requires going to the pet hospital and having a veterinarian or veterinary nurse determine what fluid to infuse, the amount and speed of the infusion, etc.

Reasons for sudden vomiting in Chow Chow:

1. Eat too much

Sometimes when we describe how full we are, we say, "I'm so full that I'm going to vomit." In fact, this sentence is not unreasonable. Eating too much may indeed cause vomiting. Similarly for Chows, eating too much will cause the esophagus to be overburdened. If digestion is not timely, Chows will vomit.

2. The gastrointestinal tract is blocked

The Chow may accidentally eat some substances that are not digested and absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract, such as small plastics, cotton, cloth, etc. These substances become blocked in the gastrointestinal tract after being eaten by the Chow, causing gastrointestinal rejection.

3. Physiological vomiting

Physiological vomiting is a normal reaction. If the Chow vomits the food and then eats it back immediately without any adverse reactions afterwards, this situation is physiological vomiting.

4. Indigestion

If a Chow eats food that is not easy to digest, indigestion can also cause vomiting.

5. Eating the wrong food

If your Chow eats spoiled or chocolate, etc.Foods that should not be eaten can cause gastrointestinal reactions and cause vomiting in Chow Chows.

6. Gastritis

Gastritis can cause problems in the Chow's entire digestive system, leading to symptoms such as indigestion, loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting.

7. Kidney problems

Renal insufficiency, kidney stones, nephritis and other diseases can also cause Chow Chow to vomit.

8. Pancreatitis

Chow pancreatitis is mainly caused by the blockage of the bile duct, which causes pancreatic juice and bile to flow back to the pancreas, causing the pancreas to digest itself. Pancreatitis can easily lead to gastrointestinal discomfort and vomiting.

9. Gastrointestinal ulcers

Gastrointestinal ulceration will cause the Chow's digestive system to fail to function normally. One of the symptoms of the disease is vomiting.
