^ Great advice!

Jackson threw up all over the car when I brought him home, too. As did my German Shepherd puppy years ago. I think he was just so nervous, scared. Think about being taken away from all you've ever known in your little life. It's a scary thing. He began warming up once we got him home and he saw my dads other dog. I think it made him more comfortable w/ the other dog there. He didn't really eat much the first night we brought him home. The next morning he ate a lot.

Also... Kibbles n' Bits is awful food. What was the breeder feeding him? Keep him on whatever she was feeding so he doesn't get an upset tummy and then you can proceed to switch him to a better food if you like. Some of the better brands you can find at petco are Wellness, Natural Balance and a few others. There's even better foods at smaller speciality- like pet stores like Pet Valu etc.
