The same EXACT thing just recently happaned to my Zeus, and I rushed him to the emergency. I did not feed him that night when I got home. They gave him fluids subq which was an adequate amount of nutrients, so I didn't have to feed him that night. I was told to slowly introduce food to him in the morning. I was instructed to give him a half a tablespoon of food, wait a half hour after he ate the small amount, and give him a little bit more if he did not throw up. I increased the amount throughout the day until I felt comfortable giving him a full meal. Vet told me to give him something bland. He is currently on a raw diet and the vet said raw lamb was ok to give. Dogs are much like us when we are nauseous and vomitting. We can only tolerate a small amount of bland food. Chicken and rice was also recommended.
