Poor Johnny! I would have him seen by a vet as soon as possible. In an 11 year old Boxer, his anorexia and vomiting could be caused by something serious such as a systemic infection, kidney failure, cardiac disease, liver disease, or even cancer. I recommend having a physical exam, geriatric blood panel, urinalysis, and x-rays done on Johnny to diagnose what is causing his symptoms. Once a cause is found, the vet can discuss any possible treatment options.
