DDog (3 year old spaniel) has never been ill before so not sure how to gauge this and Google is giving me conflicting views. She was sick late this afternoon (she has thrown up before after eating too fast/too much) so wasn't unduly worried. Popped out for a couple of hours and when I got back DD said she'd been sick a couple more times but more bile/foam. I kept an eye on her between about 7-9 this evening and she threw up bile about six times. In between throwing up she would lie on the sofa, seems lethargic and is quite trembly.
So far she hasn't thrown up for about an hour - the longest she's gone so far - but she is still definitely not herself and still quite shaky to touch.
She couldn't have eaten chocolate or raisins/grapes but DH thinks she might have had a small piece of Brie that she snaffled earlier. Also she runs around a lot on her walks which is in a huge park with a lot of nature - foxes/deer/rabbits etc so could have picked up something and eaten without us seeing.
As I type this, she is lying next to be dozing and I am hoping that the worst has passed but she is definitely lethargic and a bit shaky.
Vet or wait and see how she is in the morning? Honestly have no idea? Vet would be a pantomime to get to (would have to get small DC out of bed etc) and I imagine v. expensive, but this is DDog - so if it's am emergency, of course I will go. Trembling and lethargy could be explained by just feeling sick and being sick but equally google suggests could be symptoms of something worse... Any advice welcome. And thank you.
