Dog is shaking for several hours now and threw up his food. Did not find anything abnormal in the vomit. Definitely does not have his normal energy

Hi shaking can be a vague sign, of having a temperature or being in pain, or something more specific like having eaten mouldy food for example. I would try to offer Bruce some light diet, and monitor over the next few hours. Hope this helps.
