I recommend a vet visit for Kujo. Vomiting and diarrhea in an older dog can easily cause them to become dehydrated. This could be from dietary indescretion, pancreatitis, diabetes mellitus or even some cancers can show these signs. I recommend taking Kujo to the vet today where they may recommend bloodwork or imaging depending on his presentation. Good luck and hope he's better soon.
