Hello, there are just so many diseases & conditions that can cause vomiting & diarrhea, distemper is just one of them. Did your vet do any diagnostic tests, check for intestinal parasites, administer antibiotics, fluids, anti-nausea medications? These are all things that may be necessary to find out what is wrong with GoGo & hopefully get him feeling better soon. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
