I have a 9mo boxer puppy named Bo that I'm fostering for a local rescue group. He had his front right leg removed about 6wks ago due to owner re-wrapping his leg to tight. He is getting around ok but he currently urping (vomit) up a lot when he hops around. Has anyone else experienced this?? I'm trying to limit his activity after eating and drinking which is eliminating the about of stuff that is coming out when he urps. He will still urp up small amounts. I'm also trying to burp him after eating and drinking but that doesn't seam to help that much.
