Hmmmmm True GERD is pretty rare in dogs. Does she have a hiatal hernia?

How did you vet suggest you treat her? Have you contacted her breeder? If she has always had this problem the breeder should take her back and replace her with a healthy puppy at the very least.

I know, I am sure you are too attached to her at this point in time but this is not a good thing and she will not live long if she can not keep food or water down her long enough to get hydrated or get any nutrition from the food.

You can try a raw diet. Raw meat and bones digest in about 4 hours compared to cooked and/or processed foods taking up to 12 hours. You could also give her some digestive enzymes and probiotics which she may be totally lacking.

If you need help and support in going to a raw diet with her, I highly recommend Whole Dog Forums at http://www.wholedogforums.com it is an online community much like this one only there are many long time breeders, health care practioniers and Naturopatic vets, etc. there as well.

Even a raw diet might not be the answer if she has a genetic defect but at this point, you have nothing to lose in trying to see if it helps...

Let us know how she does..
