1st problem is a Lady vet. Find an old man vet outside of town in a plain, outdated building. If he also does large animal, even better.
This.

Additional points if the old vet chain smokes.

LSU Vet school cheap for visit. Expensive if overnight.

Whittington Vet Clinic in Abbeville is the place to go. Good vets that care about dogs. And owners. Well worth the hour and a half drive.
Do not stop at Carson in Lafayette on the way.

Damn dogs...Can't live without em'


Oh yes you can. I've got the best dogs in the world. No vet bills, no fences for them, I don't even have to feed them, although I do provide water for them in the hot summer. They are the neighbors' dogs. Y'all take care of them, I get to pet them.

Ignore these people.
Need xray and possible ultrasound.
Looking for something he ate. If found will need a surgery to remove.
If nothing found you will need a chem 27, cbc and real time urinalysis to see why he’s sick. All should be under $600. It’s an easy path. You’re welcome. I hope he get care and recovers.

It’s a 8 month old mutt. German Shepard and something else maybe a lab?


If he’s a pup, he ate something that isn’t food maybe a sock.

Assuming you are in Baton Rouge area, if I recall, Sherwood Forest is an er and a good one. LSU vet is not cheap, no er is. Your pup may die if this isn’t addressed asap. 3 days of vomiting could be a blockage. Your vet sucks, find a new one. Please update and hope your pup gets past this.

In the future, get pet insurance. Progressive I’ve found to be the cheapest.

When Old Soul was a very young soul, I had a German Shephard/Lab mix get to the neighbors' place while they were skinning squirrels. Later, dog was not throwing up but squatting to poop with no results. The vet removed squirrel skulls from the south-end of my dog. Anesthesia must have be first-rate.

All this to say ---
German Shephard/Lab mix will eat and manage to swallow anything.

No species on this planet including Homo Sapiens has had a bigger come up in the last 30 years than dogs. Zero chance my parents would have brought any of my dogs growing up to the vet or spent $1000 on them, but now it's the norm. Dogs were always some random flavor of mutt and free. Our dogs weren't even allowed in the house. They eventually softened up later in life and had a lab in the house and did the whole vet show until she died at 13.
