If you think Rio ate a bone and is now vomiting then you need to get him to a vet ASAP. That bone could be stuck in his intestinal tract causing a blockage, he could have gotten a severe bacterial infection from the bone, he could have pancreatitis or gastritis from that. A vomiting puppy can get dehydrated very quickly so that is another concern. Please take Rio to your vet as soon as you can.
