Considering your description of the signs, Harley may have a possible gastrointestinal infection and require treatment with dietary change (bland diet based on boiled chicken and rice in small portions every 6 hours for 4-5 days), antibiotics, probiotics, antiemetic medications and eventually gastroprotectants. Ask your veterinarian to check her over and discuss these treatment options (on prescription).

    It sounds as Harley is suffering from a gastrointestinal condition, possibly an infection. it could also be due to ingestion of a foreign body material. i would recommend taking him to the vet the first chance you get, he will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection he will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better.
