What will the vet do if you take your dog in for vomiting and diarrhea?

If you take your dog to the vet for vomiting and diarrhea, the vet will likely perform a physical examination, collect blood and stool samples, and possibly conduct imaging tests such as X-rays or an ultrasound. The vet may also recommend hospitalization and intravenous fluids to prevent dehydration. Treatment options may include anti-diarrhea medication, antibiotics, and a special diet. In some cases, surgery may be necessary if the cause of the vomiting and diarrhea is a blockage or other serious condition.
