Could the shots be what's making her sick? Or a combination of shots and being in a car, then a whole new home? Maybe all of it combined is just too overwhelming for her?
Thanks for any input you can offer,

The throw up.. If its yellow/ foam it is usually bile. They can do that from not eating. She can also be stressed, plus the shots may make her feel kinda crappy.
You need to get her to eat. In the meantime try giving her some baby food. Do you have any puppy kibble? Try getting thr organic baby food- make sure it doesnt have onion or garlic. Usually the meat type baby food does. I always get the fruit and veggies, peas, carrots, squash.
You can also boil a skinless boneless chicken breast. Then shred it, mix with some of her kibble and add a little water. They will usually lap up some chicken, while getting some water into her body.
Give her some time, let her rest. Make sure you get something in that belly- even if it is a little at a time!! Very important!
She will be ok, she should sleep from the shots. Hopefully she is feeling better tomorrow. Keep us posted and congrats on your little one.
