My dog Raylan is a 8 month old Blue Heeler pup. For the past 3 days consecutively he's been throwing up. I'm not sure what it is and I could use your help.

It sounds as Raylan 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.
