He is a 4 y/o boxer and this is the second time he has been sick in the last week or so. We also have a puppy that was sick 2 weeks ago. They both vomit multiple times when they are sick and the older dog is not having regular BM's. He is lethargic and wont eat.
We just moved into a new house and the water has a odd odor (cat urine smell)
There was a ice storm a week prior to the sickness's and I have noticed the dogs chewing on the fallen branches.
Should i take him to the vet?

Both dogs have their shots and all that, and to all your douche bags telling me its obvious, its the holidays and I doubt the vet is open. I was just curious if anyone had any helpful advice about anything else i should be doing.

definitely get him to the vet as soon as possible,also I would take a sample of the water and the branches he has been chewing to see if they can be tested for contamination of any kind

Yes go to the vet and get your dog checked over.

It would be a good idea. It will make you feel better knowing it's nothing, or you will feel better knowing you took him in right away and caught the problem early. Best to go for the check up than to leave it and wish you had gone.

YES IMMEDIATLY YOUR DOG COULD HAVE PARVRO ITS VERY DEADLY AND CONTAGIOUS TO OTHER ANIMALS. WHENEVER IN DOUBT ALWAYS GO TO THE VET. ALSO YOU CAN BUY PET INSURANCE FOR ANIMAL NOW AND IT WILL SAVE YOU UP TO 80% ON VET BILLS LOOK INTO IT

No. You should just post questions online to strangers that can't see or diagnose your dog. (shaking head... so tired of questions like this!!!!)

call the vet
but in the mean time give them bottled water (jugs for the store)
I once lived in a place that the water was killing my pups, and once i gave them bottled water it was ok
