I'm sorry Julio is so sick! He could be suffering from a GI illness, may have eaten something rotten, could have a foreign body, or could have pancreatitis. When a dog has been vomiting for longer than 24 hours, it's time to see a vet. I would have him seen by a vet right away to diagnose what is causing his vomiting so he can be treated. Good luck, I hope this helps!
