If a dog vomits mucus like phlegm, we first need to consider the situation of vomiting gastric juice. The main reason for vomiting gastric juice in dogs is infectious factors, and it may also be caused by gastrointestinal blockage. Secondly, in clinical practice, CRP, routine blood, abdominal DR examinations, etc., the specific cause of the dog can be checked. The last possibility is that the presence of foreign objects in the dog's intestine causes such symptoms to the dog. This requires the removal of foreign objects through endoscopy or surgery in a timely manner.
1. Canine distemper, small causes
Dogs that have not been vaccinated are prone to canine distemper, small, and dogs that are vaccinated regularly do not need to worry too much. When you find that the dog vomits mucus, it is usually accompanied by fever, runny nose, diarrhea, etc. If the above situation is the case, the owner needs to take the dog to the hospital for examination as soon as possible, and treat it according to the examination results.
2. Gastrointestinal problems
If the dog foams in his mouth and the vomit is translucent liquid, then there is a high probability that the dog's stomach and intestines will have problems. The probability is that the gastric mucosa is damaged or the stomach acid is too high. At this time, the owner needs to consider the dog's diet and check whether the dog has eaten something that should not be eaten.
3. Incorrectly eating foreign objects
If the dog accidentally eats large pieces of bones, plastics, metals, etc., similar situations will also occur. At this time, the owner should take the dog to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.
