Answer from Our Team
A young dog vomiting repeatedly and passing or vomiting blood needs a vet urgently, ideally today. Possible causes include eating something that has irritated or blocked the gut, poisoning, parvovirus if he isn't fully vaccinated, and severe gastroenteritis.
Hold off on food and take him to a vet or emergency clinic now. Don't wait to see whether it continues, especially if he can't keep water down or seems lethargic.
See blood in dog stool for warning signs.
