My dog is throwing up and has diarrhea. When should I see a vet?

Question

Hi, I have a 1 yr old gsd called Max, he has been sick about 10 times today, he then perked up for about an hour and he has now had very watery diarrhoea 3 times, I have tried boiled rice, but he isn't interested. All his injections, flea and worm treatment are up to date, when do I need to worry? Thankyou. Pet's info: Dog | German Shepherd | Male | unneutered | 11 months and 25 days old | 74 lbs

It sounds as Max is suffering from a gastrointestinal condition, possibly an infection. it could also be due to ingestion of a foreign body material. i would recommend taking him to the vet the first chance you get, he will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection he will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better.
