Puppy not eating, vomiting, and lethargic. Is this an emergency?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Goldendoodle | Male | unneutered | 2 months and 2 days old

Puppy was very raughty last night and not quite like himself, today he has refused to eat or drink. He slept all day, vomited once, and had mucus in his last stool. I am planning on going to the vet with him tomorrow, but I worry and wonder whether he should see someone tonight. Are these urgent care symptoms?

Poor Bisou! Because he is refusing to eat or drink, is very lethargic, and has vomited, I do think he should see someone tonight. If he had been eating or drinking, it would have been ok to wait until the morning, but since he isn't, yes take him into a vet now. Best of luck.
