I would be concerned with that much vomiting. If it's only happened once you can try picking up his food and offering a bland diet of some boiled rice and chicken, however, very young puppies can quickly become dehydrated, so if he's unable to keep anything down at all, seeking vet care is best. Watching out for other symptoms such as blood in the vomit, continued vomiting, bloody diarrhea, lethargy, tender abdomen, etc warrant care ASAP.
