Hi there and thanks for posting on Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Vomiting as well as bloody diarrhea are symptoms of several medical conditions, including a parvovirus infection. It can also be caused by a bacterial infection, parasitic infection, toxin, or cancerous process or an autoimmune disorder. I would recommend Ryder sees his vet today or very soon to get checked out so a diagnosis can be made and he can receive the appropriate treatments. Best of luck to you and Ryder and I hope he feels better soon!
