Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! There are many conditions that can result in vomiting and diarrhea and they go from dietary indiscretion which may resolve on its own to systemic diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease or pancreatitis, among others. I recommend that you have Sammie evaluated by your veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. At the very least they can check his hydration status and give him medications to make him feel better. Good luck and have a nice day!
