For a dog with vomiting or suspected gastritis, the cause needs assessment first. Psyllium husks are not a general self-treatment here. Instructions for human digestion do not answer what your dog needs now.
Collect observations for the veterinary practice
Note the onset and course, food changes, possible foreign objects and any medicines or supplements used. Gastritis means inflammation of the stomach lining, but vomiting alone does not confirm that diagnosis. A food or supplement trial must not delay a necessary examination.
Use psyllium only after specific veterinary advice
If the veterinary practice recommends a psyllium product, agree the product, amount, preparation, fluid and review timing together. The linked psyllium information concerns specific capsules, not every loose husk or powder. Do not administer it on your own if swallowing problems or a possible intestinal blockage are present.
Do not respond to warning signs with another portion
Seek veterinary help without delay for blood in vomit, black stools, marked abdominal pain, severe lethargy or inability to keep water down. This article provides no fasting programme, medicine dose or universal feeding plan for sick dogs.
Is more psyllium the answer to continued vomiting?
No. Persistent or worsening symptoms need veterinary reassessment rather than an independently increased amount.
