My dog keeps throwing up but his blood work is normal. Should I worry?

Question

Oliver has thrown up quite a bit tonight and once a couple of days ago. Last Thursday he ate a cinnamon raisin bagel but has not shown any other symptoms. The vet did do blood work Thursday and this Monday and it came back normal. Should I be concerned? Pet's info: Dog | Dachshund (Miniature Smooth Haired) | Male | 4 months and 21 days old | 8.5 lbs

I'm concerned about the vomiting, but it's good his blood work is normal. I can give you a home remedy to see if that helps Oliver. Withhold food for 6 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet. If the vomiting continues in the absence of food, he vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, he will need to see a vet right away. I hope this helps!
