So one last question concerning no bowel for 2.5 days after diarrhea and vomiting 1x. He's not interested in drinking much is that normal as well? I've been giving him petialyte thru a sirynge and adding water to his meal :) thanks again for the first answer.

I am happy sunny is feeling a little better. It can be normal for dogs not to defecate multiple days after diarrhea. The GI system has to build up the feces for them to defecate. IF he is eating,drinking and acting normal I would not be concerned. IF he is lethargic and still vomiting I would take him back to the vet for additional testing like blood work and x-rays. IF you are adding water into his food it is likely he will not drink additional water
