I'm guessing a Vet. Not to eat, obviously.

It obviously has an upset stomach......

So.....what i do with Holly in the same situation is....starve for 24hrs....

Then light food....get cooking  :y .....i give Holly egg fried rice.....cook the rice.....then into the frying pan....no oil.....but add two eggs.....stir around till the eggs have cooked....wait till cold.....then serve....

The rice is light on their stomach.....the eggs give protein  :y
If still carnt hold that down.....take to a vet  :y

A vet first off.
But starve for 24 hours, giving only water.
Then feed it plain cooked chicken or fish and slowly re introduce ordinary diet.

But it's 20 years since I had dogs.

Similar no food for twenty four hours but make sure that fresh water is available at all times. After that try a little well cooked rice with a small amount of cooked  chopped chicken breast mixed in with it. If things don't improve in twelve hours a trip to the vet is a strong recommendation.

all same advice, wont starve over night, but make sure theres plenty of fresh water down, if it doesnt want to go out try walk slowly around the garden, get to vets. if you notice a big change over night then call 24hr vet line. if you have insurance you might find its included in cover.
then like everyone said, start back on small amount of food, bland, just rice, cooked chicken breast (cold)

love the cat pics  ;D

what dog is it? model? year? spec?

VET, straight away, if only for your own peace of mind.

One of our labs is very under the weather eating grass, and restless, I put it down to to humidity at the moment. Guess where he is going tomorrow?

As most of above

Starve for 24 hours ( plenty of water)

I normally feed mine ( german sheppard ) with a mixture of boiled rice or pasta with scrambled egg for a couple of days then start to introduce some dry mix into its food  :y

No food with salts ( gravy ) for a week or so  :y

Keep the dog cool and if it stops drinking ............... get it to the vets, pronto  ;)

hopefully not, but he may of swallowed something, and got it stuck.
my border terrorist has done that trick and had to have a op, on the other hand, its been pretty hot, i dont know why they think its good to re eat it after its been thrown up!
sure he will be ok, maybe just needs some anti-b's or a jab of something.
i had to get mine sedated last week just to get his ears cleaned lol
