My dog, an American Bully named Emmi who is 3 years old, has blood-like discoloration in her nail beds. She has a history of seasonal allergies that cause rashes, for which she takes Apoquel.

My dog, Loki, a 4-year-old healthy dog, has been vomiting foamy substance for about 30 minutes, sometimes twice a day, since this past Tuesday. He has a good appetite, is drinking, urinating, and passing normal bowels. He has eaten bunny poop and tissue from the bathroom garbage can. The vomiting usually occurs at 3:00am. What could be causing this and what should I do?
