Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor guys! It is possible that all your dogs are sharing a viral or bacterial infection, or a parasitic infection or even all are eating something that is causing an upset stomach. I would with hold water for 6 hours and if in 6 hours there is no vomiting then offer small amounts of shallow water frequently. Do no offer food for 12-24 hours. As long as there is no vomiting during the fasting period start them on a bland diet of boiled chicken or hamburger with rice. Feed 1 cup per 20 lbs per day as small frequent meals until 2 normal stools. If any of the dogs continue to vomit while being fasted, won't eat or vomit once they are fed then they should see a Vet on emergency if yours is not open. I hope this helps!
