hi i have a female miniture poodle who is 9months ,occasionally she vomitts a yellow discharge from her mouth which is very thick and slimy ,could you please tell me what this is from i am very concerned thank you very much

Answer
Hello Meagan,
This kind of vomit is usually bile from the stomach and is caused by the stomach being upset.  There are several minor things that could cause this, nothing to worry about.  Sometimes stress can cause this yellow bile, sometimes a dog will eat grass if their stomach is feeling upset and the grass will cause them to vomit.  
You can call your Vet to let them know what is going on with your dog, and that will put your mind at ease, but I wouldn't worry to much.  
The only other thing it could be that might cause some concern would be worms, but if you have wormed her since she was little that shouldn't be cause for concern.  
Call your Vet to be sure and if you are still worried, take a stool sample into your Vet.  

Hope this helps some.  If you have other questions, please feel free to ask.
