Why Is My French Bulldog Vomiting?

Vomiting is a common problem in French Bulldogs that can be caused by a variety of issues, including dietary indiscretion, worms, parasites, infectious diseases and even neurological problems. If your French Bulldog is vomiting, it is important to identify the cause and seek proper veterinary care.

    • Common Causes of Vomiting in French Bulldogs

    Dietary Indiscretion

    French Bulldogs are infamous for being gluttonous, which can lead to vomiting. This type of vomiting is often called the “garbage can” stomach or “Garbage Gut” syndrome in which a French Bulldog consumes too much food, or too much of a particular type of food (such as rich, fatty food or table scraps). Gastric upset can cause vomiting, and French Bulldogs are particularly prone to this type of problem due to their frequent overeating.

    Parasites and Worms

    Internal parasites, and especially worms, can cause vomiting in French Bulldogs. Roundworms, tapeworms, and other parasites can cause inflammation of the intestinal lining, resulting in vomiting. Other signs that your French Bulldog may have worms include loss of appetite, a distended abdomen, and exhaustion.

    Infectious Disease

    Vomiting can also be a sign of a more serious underlying medical condition, especially an infectious disease. Issues such as kennel cough, distemper, and parvovirus can cause vomiting, along with other signs such as lethargy, fever, dehydration, and diarrhea.

    Neurological Problems

    In some cases, neurological problems can cause vomiting. Dogs with epilepsy, encephalitis, or other neurological disorders can suffer from seizures or other neurological events that can lead to vomiting.

    Vomiting is a common veterinary complaint in French Bulldogs, but it should not be taken lightly. If your French Bulldog is vomiting, it is important to identify the underlying cause and take steps to address the problem. Contact your veterinarian if you notice any signs of vomiting or other concerning symptoms in your pet.

    Conclusion

    It is important to pay attention to vomiting in French Bulldogs and contact your veterinarian if your pet is vomiting frequently or exhibiting signs of a serious underlying medical condition. Your veterinarian can help to diagnose the cause of your French Bulldog’s vomiting and recommend the appropriate treatment.
