My pup Tank tends to throw up if he's taken out on a full stomach. Once right outside our local corner shop !

I tend to leave it a good cpl of hours after eating to give his food chance to go down and this has worked. Also not taking him out in hot weather has helped.

Only other thing I can think of... Is he picking stuff up and eating it when out n about ? Such as fruit ? The pips/stones in fruit aren't good for dogs.

How often do u feed him ? Could be sticking to 3 smaller meals a day is easier on his tummy. (this is what I do)

I always walk first & then feed about an hour later. That way it's out with the old & in with the new!

Mind you, at 6 months you could probably cut out the mid day meal.

Is his eating a lot of grass whilst out for awlk, this could be making him sick ??

You could tried splitting the midday feed between the two others and see how it goes.

I agree with Caryll, I would cut to 2 meals a day and feed either way b4 the morning activity, Moo is fed at 7am and walked at midday, walked again later and fed at about 7/8pm Smile Hope you get it sorted Xx
