Vomiting in dogs is one of the most common emergencies seen by veterinarians in Uganda—and one of the most dangerous when ignored.

Many dog owners in Kampala—from Makindye, Ntinda, Kira, Buziga, Najjera, Rubaga, Kawempe to Mukono—often […]
Read MoreIt is a scene veterinarians in Kampala know too well. A dog from Katwe arrives vomiting after swallowing a chicken bone picked near a roadside food stall.
