I have not had problems with vomitting but have had serious problems with muccousy jelly like diarrhea to the point of lethargy from dehydration. The diarrhea has also been bloody. Is it possible for your pup to have pancreatitis along with a lower GI upset. Have you tried with holding solid food for a day to help the vomitting. I have had to cut food to a minimal for a day, give her water which had dog food soaked in it to give it flavor and give my Bridgett a non canine approved med called Sulfasalzine; 1/6 of a 500 mg tab twice daily. This is an antibiotic/anti-inflammatory which alomost instantly will stop the diarrhea. I just have to wonder if you are on a visious cycle of this pancreas and lower GI problem.
