I think it was just tummy upset from anxiety, hope he is better soon.

Just reading this, Julie...so very sorry!

I think he would not be acting fine if blockage. Most likely from
anxiety the length of days gone by w/out y'all, eating other dog's
foods, tired of not being in his own home, etc

When dealing w/upset stomach it's best to only give water for a
few hours and then a very small amt of boiled chicken or hamburger
or a soft scrambled egg but if throws up still, hold off any food again
for few hours. It's very hard on them (the digestion process) when
they have tummy upset, of course we want to feed them but really
best to not do it and then small amounts. Sending love & prayers!

We are back from the vets and all seems good.
he had blood test's and they 100% normal the vet thought it was an upset stomach but I want the blood test just to put me at ease he had a maxalon shot for the vomiting and has been put on a medication for 7 days in case of gut inflammation he has been as good as normal since we got home but not to be fed until 6pm and then only small amounts of bland diet chicken/rice/potatoes for a few days then hopefully will be back to normal. He is now playing with his giant kong that I brought home for him and he loves it.

I feel so relieved now.

Aww poor Ftse, I'm so sorry you went through this worry with Ftse, and that he seems to be feeling better. You already got great advice from everybody, and I had the same thoughts and suggestions, so nothing to add. Just wanting to send my thoughts and prayers your way, and glad the vet didn't find anything serious. I hope he has a quick recovery, and is back to feeling like himself soon. I'm sure having mommy home to give him love and TLC, will help a lot. Our guys are so sensitive, and any change in their routine can upset their systems and make them sick. Love, hugs and prayers to you both.

Does it sound like a blockage? Jeannie he is weeing normal but he has not had a poo here as we didn't get home until about 4pm and he would of already had it and with three other dogs there who knows and they are not poo detectives like us lot here on EBN, just strange he is so normal in himself hopefully its just a tummy bug but we are going to take him to the vets as soon as they open, I will keep you posted.
Emma was totally normal when she ate that toy earlier this year, not sure how she managed to poop that out. If he continues to throw up and has no poop then YES it's more than likely a blockage. I'll be hoping it's just a tummy bug and/or that he was just really stressed with you being gone.
