Question
hi i have a mini schnauzer shes about a year and 10 months old.

i have her mated last year of nov 22 2004 that was her first day the second was on nov 25 and the lase was on nov nov 27.

on her 3rd week after mated she vomits at night and after next next day she did it again at night, the description of it is color yellow/brown and watery in consitenscy.

and jst now on jan 8 of 2005 this happened again at night she vomits again with the same descriotion, i was suppose to bring her to the vet but they where about to close, the thing is my vet told me that she myt be having a kidney or liver problem is it possible?

but of course im still gonna bring her to the vet...and one thing is that shes a peeky eater. so what i did was still feed her the same amount of dry dog food ( canidae ) and half of nutro can 335g puppy. becuse the mating myt be succesfull so i give her much protein as possible.

what myt be the problem of these?

Answer
Hi Stephen.  Kidney or liver problems would be one of the last things I would suspect in a dog so young.  I would be more concerned that she had ingested something she shouldn't have.  I would definitely get her to the vet as soon as possible to ensure that there is nothing lodged in her intestinal tract or that she has ingested something toxic.
I have heard of some dogs vomiting when pregnant.  Your veterinarian will also be able to tell you whether or not she is pregnant.
Your best bet...get her to your vet.
I hope this helps,
Hilary
