I have a 9 week old Great Dane. I gave him a worming medication this morning given to me by my Vet yesterday when I took him to get his second set of shots. He belched about 7:30pm and again about 10:30pm. At about 11:55pm he vomitted a little of his food. Could this be the worming medication? His diet has been the same as the breeder was giving him.

It could be the wormer. Did he have worms or did your vet just worm him for precautionary measures? How long have you had him? It may be just everything new, shots, medication, etc. I would just keep a watch on him. Are you familiar with bloat? This is very common in Great Danes.
