If your puppy seem like vomitting but nothing come out from her mouth, that is the symptom of Kennel Cough. If that happened in regular interval, you must rush your puppy to your VET.
Kennel Cough often associate with Distemper which is serious and fatal.
He vomits some food that he ate during dinner for the last two days when he woke up after a nap and the dinner. So, what are the reasons that probably cause the vomit?

Thanks Derrick.
I think may be like you said ... indigestion because he was eating the meal very fast , like hungry ghost! I gave about 50 grams of kibble per meal, 3 meals per day.

my silky had similar symptoms last time...the vet gave her some liquid...after a while, she is alright already...do check with the vet as soon as possible...
I did see from somewhere saying that you can add water to his/her kibbles.. this will slow down her eating speed.. I don't know how true is it.. but, I soak the kibbles in the water for my furkid since she's with me. (she's 7 months old now.) But, she still swallow the kibbles in a few minutes -- about 4-5 minutes ( 2 meals a day now).

there are many reasons for vomiting. so far what i've noticed is
1) being too hungry and eating a lot
2) eating too fast
3) eating too much
these are the symtoms i've noticed for my dogs. Maltese eats his kibbles like it's his last meal. vomit WHOLE pieces back out a few times. but rare now. Pappy vomited ALL this food back out because he was fasting for a whole day then suddenly ate quite a bit of kibbles.
