    I am with most on here. It sounds like something digested. My Lacy has had issues with rotten meat.....but usually gets the runs and vomits it up. Do you have rodent or bug killer traps out? Fertilize the yard lately?

You can also push down on his gums with a finger until if turns white. When you remove the pressure it should turn bright pink in less than a second. This will also show dehydration.
      Thanks. Now he is vomiting a white foam

        I don't have any poison or bug killer. I do have some natural fertilizer made from chicken droppings but I have had that product for a long time and it's inshed.

              Kidney failure / disease/ cancer. It was terminal. We changed his diet and it helped, but he slowly went down hill.

                PM Kdub he had a lacy act like this earlier this year and I think they finally decided it was from a tick bite. I think his might had been worse than yours though.

                    You might want to be careful what you say about a business online nowadays. Slander has landed A LOT of people in hot water and in debt. The fact that a LEO has had a good experience and contradicts your experiences is even more cause for caution

                    You "may" be 100% accurate, but it will cost you a ton of money to find out if a business feels threatened

                      Based on this, it doesn't sound very serious. You never know though.
                      Generally, anything too serious, is accompanied by more than just white foam, ie.., bloody stool, loss of bowels, loss of urinary functions, etc.
                      Sounds like it could be indigestion/acid reflux. Does he swallow a lot, burp?

                        Like someone posted above, our 13 year old Aussie all of a sudden stopped eating and got real lethargic too. She was still drinking water and urinating. Took her to the vet. In a weeks time, it went fast and got worse quickly. Ended up being kidney failure. Didnt end up well. I hope your pup is ok.

                          Well he didn't slander the business. He just said he could tell you some stories.

                              Please... It is a can of worms he would NOT want opened. No legs to stand on in an argument.

                              I'm giving you the point of view of a guy who worked in the industry for multiple ppl. One of the last places I would go. But that's just one man's opinion, you do what you want

                                My Lacy throws up almost every time she eats bones. Something about the excess stomach acid buildup to break down the bones. The bone chunks irritate the stomach lining and also causes her to eat grass. She also acts puny until all this has passed thru her. For that reason she don't get bones anymore. I do give her the cooked crispy pig ears on occasion but they make her farts ultra lethal.
                                My guess is once your dog has passed all the hoof and leg bones thru it's system she will be OK.

                                I also give mine the breath and teeth cleaning hard chews. They look like some sort of hard baked multi grain product. These treats don't upset her at all.
