Question
my 4 yr old boston terrier named cowboy has been puking constanly after he finishes eating i don't know if it is a sensative stomache problem or just doesn't like the food we tried diff. kinds of diets. If we can't figure out a way to help my pet we'd have to give up for adoption and i really don't want that. mostly 'cause im only 12 yrs. of age but please help my dog cowboy and me.

Answer
Hi Belle

I'm afraid this indicates a medical problem and a vet needs to see Cowboy.  It maybe he has a sensitive stomach or is intolerant or allergic to some of the ingredients.  Have you tried 'hypoallergenic' varieties?  Is he putting on weight?  if he is losing weight then it could be serious so get him to a vet as soon as possible.  

Why on earth would you have to lose your dog because of this?  When we purchase a dog we have a responsibility to care for it through good and bad health - parents don't get rid of their children when they are ill!

I hope he gets better soon
