Question
i give him a bath every other day but 4 sum reason he is not actin like his self vomited one time and do not want to eat or do nothing. what can i do to help

Answer
You are bathing this dog much too often. You can cause all kinds of problems with his skin this way. There is no need to bathe a dog more often than once every month or two months. He is not acting himself because he is probably sick.

You did not tell me anything about whether or not he is vaccinated, what he is eating or much of anything.

Stop bathing him. He could have even ingested some soap that made him vomit. He might have parvo if he hasn't been vaccinated.

You need to give me much more information and please do not use numbers for words.
Thank you.
