Motrin can lead to toxicity in dogs so I recommend you contact the pet poison helpline at the link below for further direction, and they can let you know if Lee needs to be seen by a vet or not for further treatment. Have the container with you so you can go over ingredients/dosage together. https://www.petpoisonhelpline.com/blog/top-6-not/ Also let them know what you used to induce vomiting, as that in itself can be dangerous depending on what is used, how much is used, and the potential for aspiration pneumonia. Good luck, and I hope Lee is okay!
