UTD with FTW and vaccinations.HISTORY
- Coughing described as cough-gag type, not reverse sneezing
- Vomiting since approximately 2:00pm
- Patient has history of occasional similar episodes but this is first occurrence this year

Lifestyle Risk Factors:

EXAM
Mentation: BAR
BCS: 4/5
Heart/lungs: nad 
MM: pink
Skin Tent: normal
Dental Score: 1
Abdomen: nad, soft
Skin: normal
Eyes: nad
Ears: nad
Temp: 39.4
Lymph Nodes: nad
MSK/Neuro: 4x ambulatory
Rectal: not assessed
Throat: No tracheal sensitivity 

DIAGNOSTICS: 
bloods show mild liver elevations + respiratory alkalosis

ASSESSMENT: gastritis / possible throat irritation / tonsilitis / foreign body
possible hepatic pathology - not elevated enough to cause vomiting / current signs

PLAN
- Antiemetic injection to be administered tonight
- Radiographs recommended if vomiting continues through antiemetic treatment due to concern for obstruction given patient's history of ingesting foreign objects
- Recheck bloods in 2-3 weeks, abdo ultrasound if no improvement or worsening liver values

Additional Discussion:
- Monitor for coffee ground-type vomiting which would indicate more serious gastric irritation
- Patient not typical for kennel cough as lacks tracheal sensitivity and respiratory signs
- Foreign body obstruction possible given patient's tendency to ingest objects on walks, though classical presentation would include vomiting food as well as clear liquid

Client Comms:
- Advised to return for radiographs if vomiting persists despite antiemetic treatment
- Monitor patient's demeanour and energy levels
