Why is my old dog vomiting, has stomach pain, and high urea?

Question

He had been throwing up, med said his urea was high, he prescribed ipakitine powder and kiddle for liver treatment, still throwing up, he now added tums and a pill for ulcers. He had stopped. But tonight he threw up and since he's having stomach pains like weeks ago. I can't stand to see him on this pain. No vets at this time night. I'm just waiting for him to fall asleep despite his pain. I don't even know what I'm asking. Perhaps we should put him to sleep tomorrow. Any comments! Please!!

I am sorry Chuck isn't feeling well. If his BUN was elevated I would be concerned about kidney disease and that could be why he is vomiting. Especially at 15 years old there is a lot of different things that can be going on with him. He needs to get to a veterinarian as soon as you can since without actually seeing him and knowing more information it is hard to give direct advice. With putting him to sleep at 15 years old I would recommend discussing this with your veterinarian to see if his quality of life and medical concerns and issues are something that you, your family and your veterinarian feel is the best thing for him.
