On June 10, 2016 / Tip of the Week

A while back, we posted about dog poop, and it turned out, people really wanted to know about it! Today we want to talk to you about dog vomit – why it happens, what you can do, and when you should be concerned. Some dogs vomit more than others.

Many times mommy and I are out and about and people see me and ask what kind of dog that I am. They are impressed by how well I behave and my personality. Mommy tells them the truth about me.
