My friend came to stay at my house for a few months with her pug . The first few days he was foming at the mouth barking at bolth of them , but he is fine now walking around them with his muzzle on and leting her pet him , but at night time when we are sleeping he is puking in his crate every day . is he probbly just stresed out or something,
One other thing if i need to take my dog to the vet i need to get pills from them ahead of time to sadate him than, they need to put him out when he gets their . so would they even be able to tell if something was off with him if he is passed out anyway

Wait a sec. You are saying you're muzzling a bracheocephalic (flat face) dog all day?
Please clarify.
If a Pug is being muzzled for extended periods (more than a couple of minutes), separation will have to be used instead so that can stop right away. (JMO .... my very strong and Pug-knowledgeable opinion. )
Stress that causes puking every night is not OK, BTW, whichever dog it is.
Please fill us in. A better solution can and should be worked out.
I'm glad you posted.
no im muzzling my dog i have a wire basket and a jafco one and when he is not wearing a muzzle he is in his crate . my friend has the pug , and i have the not so nice dog

Okay, so it's YOUR dog that was foaming at the mouth and barking at them. Gotcha. I'd have to second what Connie said just as a precaution, though. From a medical standpoint, muzzling a Pug (or any short snouted, squished face dog) is very dangerous if not done properly.
Anyway, I would say that we probably need a little more detail about what's going on. How were the dogs introduced? What kind of pack structure do you have with your dog? My best guess from what info we have right now is that he's doing some serious resource guarding.
eta. As far as the throwing up, read below what Tanith said

Is he eating normally?
Is the vomit 'lumpy' or frothy yellow mucus?
Where does the other dog sleep?
Is your crated dog 'safe' behind closed doors when you go to sleep? or is your friend and dog maybe walking past him?
Make sure that you spend some 'quality' time together just you and your dog - go for a walk or something.
ok lets see seence he has ben throwinng up i put him on just chicking and rice , my dog is crated im my room with me when im sleeping and her dog is with her in a difrent room so he is not walking buy him or anything like that. the vomit seems to be a mix of the lumps and froth . my dog seems fine just trying to sniff and play with him why the pug just sits frozzen in fear . after the first day of my dog flipping out i put the muzzle on him because he dose have some fear bitinng issues,but we have ben walking the dogs together . and she is not hear all the time so i do have time to play and walk with my dog alone but he is still vomiting every nite sence they have been hear
Does he eat and poop as usual?
Have any toys (big bones, large knuckle chewey) gone missing?
Sometimes another dog around can cause a dog to gulp down a huge piece of
food/chewey that he might have worked on longer had he been alone.
