seems that there are a lot of bad stomachs out there, maybe it's the food again.So I googled "dogfood recalls" here is a link to the site, just click on the name and it will give you info. Check and see if your dogs food is on the list.

Unless you just started a new bag of food, more likely he has gotten into something else or has a stomach bug. Withhold food until tomorrow, and try a small meal. If it comes back up, go to a bland diet.

If a dog is having trouble keeping anything down or continuing diarrhea try this out of the manual I have from a large, knowledgeable dog guide school.

Bland recovery diet for dogs.

3 parts cooked rice, one part boiled hamburger or chicken, or cottage cheese. I think you can substitute boiled potatoes for the rice. Once in an emergency, we bought a plain baked potato from Wendy's.

This is meant for short time settling a dog's digestive tract. It is not the complete and balanced diet they need long term. I have seen it work.

If he firms up, slowly go back to the regular food. If not, call the vet.

You need to find out why he is throwing up.
Then you can either withhold food for overnight or you can make plain white rice for him.
