My dog, Dude, a beagle mix, has vomited six times in the past month, two times a week for three out of four weeks. The vomit varies from containing food to being just bile/liquid. He gags or acts like he is going to vomit almost daily and seems anxious. He has been eating normally, has no diarrhea, and is generally healthy, with normal senior blood work done this year. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Gigi, has had crusty clear yellow scabs on the left side of her stomach and chest for several years. Despite numerous visits to different veterinarians and various treatments including subcutaneous allergy shots, antibiotics, antifungal pills, and ear drops, the condition has not improved. Recently, she developed ringworm after a vet visit, leading to concerns about the vet's cleanliness and education. What could be causing this persistent issue, and what further tests and treatments should be considered?
