I called the Vets Office and she said bring him in this afternoon because he is small and cant afford to nnot eat or drink. I gave him some Kayro syp. and it was a struggle to put that in his mouth. He looks afraid of me now. 
Someone told me not to give Kayro because it alone can give the dog the runs...is this true? Have I just made him worse? Honey was suggested.
How much do you give of any of it. I just put it on my finger and rubbed it inside his mouth. How often should I do this? How much is too much?
I am so worried I will make him worse, he is my baby and I love him dearly.

A little bit of Karo is not going to make him worse. How long has it been since he has eaten? My little girl was just a tiny bit bigger than your Murphy and she had to fast before getting spayed, she was fine. When you take him in today if he is still sick the vet will probably give him some fluids and that will make him feel better.
If he starts sliding downhill just go to your vet and tell them you want him seen now. They will fit you in between clients if you are sitting there.
Try not to worry too much, he will be ok.
You shouldn't ever feel silly about worrying about your kid, you are doing the best thing by taking him in.
