My puppy started throwing up and shaking after I gave her firstshield trio singles dose. I gave her yogurt and bathed her. I don’t have access to a vet hospital right now. What can I do at home to help her?

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! If there is no further vomiting then she should be ok as this may be an isolated episode. However, if this continues, she should be evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. In the meantime, you may feed her a bland diet composed of boiled chicken breast and white rice which help with an upset stomach. Good luck and have a great day!
