hi can anyone help my 3 week old puppy vomits milk after every feed with some coming from his nose the vet checked him out and gave antibiotics for incase he inhales any but otherwise he said the pup is fine well im worried still has anyone had the same problems

It would help to know the breed of pup and also how the Dam is doing and any siblings in the litter??
If the vet can't find anything wrong I would start weaning now. It might be that once solids start the problem may solve itself. A bit like human babies that can't keep milk down but are fine once on solids.
i to had a pup do this in a litter from about 2 weeks old i put him on to rusk mixed in with his milk to make it thicker it helped but deciced to wean him on to soaked biscuit at 3 weeks old and he was fine hes now a strong ,big healthy dog ,oh he was a german shepherd what breed is youres ,i agree with lindy lou if vets cant find anyting wrong then go ahead with the weaning you might have to spend more time with the pup to encourage them to eat the solids at first but im sure it will help in the long run good luck ..

I also had this happen with one of my gsd pups. He did it over a couple of days, then never again, weaned onto barf diet no problem. I wouldnt worry too much at the mo.
