WARNING - Sorry but this is a long one :-)

This is the best site! I am a new mommy: Roxy 7 month girl (3lbs) and T.J. 5 month boy (3 lbs). I LOVE THEM and I don't know what I would ever do without them. I tell them all the time that they are my babies and I love them and that I will always take of them (do you think they know that?)
Well this is what is going on: I have had them since 5/21 (so a month). They are always playful and active and then they of course have their sleep time too. The breeder told me that they eat a little chicken 2x a day (1x first in the AM with .50 cc of honey and the 2x time later in the day/evening) and that they leave Eukanuba dry food and water out all day. GREAT, how easy! Well, I think I was giving them too much chicken (I would slipt a drumbstick between them in the AM and then the PM) b/c they would just pick at the dry food all day (actually it has to be a game, they like to pounch on it, so I would have to sprinkle some on the floor next to their dish). Anyway, 10 days after I got them, T.J. started to get some diarrhea mixed with some mucas (but only later in the day). I thought I was going to die, being a new mom and all I took him to the vet. His poop was negative (and they sent it out to the lab as well). He had no temperature and his behavior was excellent. The vet told me to put him on the ID can food (chicken and rice) that he gave me and he also gave me Flaggl to give him. Over the next 2 weeks, T.J. did get better but every once and a while would have that poop again! I did a check around the house and I saw that he and maybe she was eating the corner of the wall, the foot board molding and the corner cabinets, pretty much anything that was hard and chewable (teething!!!) OH YEA, they BOTH also eat their poop!!!! So, I kinda figured that he is eating something that he should be and therefore is upsetting his stomach and digestion??? Then on 6/11 Roxy didn't want to eat her AM chicken and her back end was making all these funny girgirling noises and then within the hour see pooped that mucus diarrhea and then a little bit later she was ready to eat and she was all better! The day went on fine with both of them. But that happened to Roxy again on 6/15 in the PM. All this while they are both TERRIFIC. They play, fight, run/hide :-) all the normal puppy things (even the poop eating! which I tried the forbid stuff and it worked on and off). So I decided to make some boiled rice to give them with their chicken hoping to make the loose poop go away. So now being that everyone seems good to go it is time for the Booster Shot on 6/17, which went good. Then on 6/19 T.J. did the diarrhea/mucus poop but also was doing this 'gagging' thing only 2x and very mild. A few hours later he threw up some whole rice (very little). Again, I thought I was going to DIE! I took him immediately to the vet with the poop and the throw up! And again, he checked out to be fine! The vet told me to just give them the dry food, that that's all they really need, especially since they seem to have VERY sensitive stomachs and that they will get all the nutrients they need from their own kind of food. He also gave T.J. a shot of something to calm his stomach down. And it did. We went home and both pups slept a bit and then back to normal, playing, fighting, drinking and even eating their own food and a pretty good amount too! They even had a playmate for the day (since it was father's day my parents brought over their 3 1/2 yr old Yorkie girl, and they love her, she isn't sooooo keen on them bothering her, but everyone had a good time). The next morning 6/20 T.J. played on my lap for a few minutes and then got down and went to the corner and did this horrible dry heave thing and then he threw up some yellowish bile spit. Again, I thought I would just DIE (but I didn't) I watched him over the next hour and he was FINE, he even ate 50 pieces of his dry food and was drinking too! I had to leave them to go to work and of course I worried all day. I called the Vet and he said to watch him over the next few days (he said now it sound more like Kennel Cough rather than digestive issues). When I got home they were both fine acting and doing normal things. So now Tuesday 6/21 comes and both pups have very normal AM poop and pee, but I hear than T.J. has that girgirling going on and he doesn't want to eat. He does drink a little. Roxy ate and drink a little too. Today they are going to my friend’s house (I have a dentist appt after work and it would be just too long before I would get home). They pretty much played for a tiny bit and then slept all day. T.J. finally stopped girgirling but then pooped the diarrhea/mucus and then he ate a little chicken but then dry heaved and threw it up. Roxy started to girgirle and she too pooped diarrhea/mucus and then she did the dry heavy but no vomit. As soon as I got there I called the vet but couldn't get an appt. until the AM, so I ran to petsmart and got some nurtical and also some pedialite. I gave them both a little and they were better! I took them home and they were great! They drank a lot and ate a decent amount and then the normal play, chase, fight, etc. I thought they were ok and was probably going to cancel the vet appt., but at 2am I woke up to Roxy dry heaving and vomiting the food she ate that night. So, we went to the vet and he said before we get into the costly blood work and the gastro stuff, lets dry the ID diet again, he told me to really scan the house and make it EXTRA puppy eating/chewing proof and since we have done the stool tests and they have been negative, just a precaution to put them on the Panacur and lets see what happens. That was yesterday 6/22. Well, they ate the ID can food all day and played and drank, etc. I was able to grab all poop before it was too late (except for 1x, I think Roxy got it, it is amazing how the second you leave them alone they do it and eat it). So, I slept in the room with them and didn't hear anyone dry heave or vomit. I did quickly grab poop in the middle of the night, but all seemed ok. This morning they weren't as feisty (although I am under so much stress b/c I am so worried that I could just be imaging that). They both peed and pooped (the poop was log like but very, very soft). And this time they were not so keen on eating the ID can food. They ate a very tiny bit, mostly b/c the were playing with it and then decided to eat it. I gave them a tiny bit of boiled chick which they ate and the nutrical. I put some pedialite in their water and I am now here a work, wishing the hours by so I can get back to them! Has anyone experienced anything like this??? I really hope that nothing is seriously wrong with them. The vet said it is very unusual that both dogs would have the same problems (leaning more towards the fact that they do have sensitive stomach and are probably digesting something they shouldn't). Please can someone easy my nerves??? Anxiety SUCKS...I just love them so much, and I am just so confused! They seem and act and are fine most of the time, these little episodes just sneak in for a few minutes and the they are gone until the next time! Sorry this was so long, I am a new mom and I am sure you all now how that is...But seriously, please someone calm me down (I am starting to get diarrhea b/c I am so worried) :-)
