Hello, sorry to hear about Penny. This could a simple upset stomach from eating too much, or too fast. Alternatively, this can be a dietary indiscretion from getting into something he should have like picking up something on the floor, or eating food from the table, or getting a new treat. I would continue to monitor him for ongoing vomiting, having a low appetite, or developing any diarrhea and have him evaluated by your veterinarian if he does develop any of this. Otherwise, he should be fine if he doesn't continue to vomit. Hope this helps and best of luck.
