My dog will not stop vomiting (it's yellowish in color) and he has diarreah really bad. It started while I was at work today. I did notice him acting really weird last night though, laying right next me the entire night, not playing or eating. I have cooked some plain white rice and tried giving him more water. He will not touch either of them. He keeps wanting outside so when I let him out he finds a spot to 'go' (number2) and tries but nothing is coming out. His stomach does appear to be hard. I have not changed his diet nor anything else in his routine, however, he did go to the vet 2 days ago for his distemperment shot. Surely the shot isn't making him do this, it didn't make him sick the last time he got his shots. Can I give him any pain relievers, what kind? how many miligrams? Oh and he will not stop panting, does he have a temp? How can I check that? Help!?!

The yellow vomit is not serious - my terriers do that any time their stomachs are empty. You did the right thing by offering him water and rice. The panting, diarrhea, failure to eat and lethargy are the problem. He could have a bowel obstruction or a virus or a reaction to the shot. I'd take him to the vet immediately if he were my dog. Don't give him any pain meds - you'll make it worse.

Yeah, there is nothing you are going to do for him at home with as bad as he is. He is going to be seriously dehydrated. He needs the vet NOW. Don't wait, or it could be too late.
