Pet's info: Dog | Golden Retriever | Male | unneutered | 2 months and 10 days old | 10.5 lbs
So I got home and my puppy golden retriever threw up and he had diarrhea. His threw up was like brown tan color and his poop was light brown. He’s very down, he doesn’t want to play or anything. I’m very worried and don’t know what to do.

I would take Opie into a vet immediately. He's just over two months old, and he will not be fully vaccinated yet so my first concern is parvovirus. He could also have a GI illness, may have eaten something rotten, or could have a foreign body. Whenever a young puppy is both vomiting and having diarrhea, it's time to see a vet right away. The vet can diagnose what is causing his symptoms, and can treat him. Best of luck.
