Pet's info: Dog | Pug | Male | unneutered | 4 months and 21 days old
My 5 month old pug is shaking very aggressively, throwing up, not eating, and has diarrhea. I don't know what to do. He had his first shot last month. Before that he was fine. Now he just sleeps or lays down all day.

Monty sounds like he is very sick! It sounds like he has only had one round of vaccinations, so he is still susceptible to parvovirus, which can be a life threatening infection. Even if he does not have a parvo infection, vomiting and diarrhea can quickly dehydrate a young puppy. I recommend taking him to your veterinarian. Your veterinarian may want to test for parvovirus. He may need hospitalization and medications to help him feel better. Hope he feels better soon!
