My puppy threw up a dryer sheet. Is it serious or will he pass it?

Hi my puppy king is 8 months old, and 61 pounds. At 2:30 I noticed he threw up his food from the night before, but did not check it. And just now at 11:30 pm he threw up again, but threw up what it looks to be a half of a dryer sheet. He acted normal today, and wanted to eat and play. Should i be concerned or is his body passing it?

As long as he is eating and passing stool normally I would be happy to continue to monitor his progress. Any persistent vomiting (especially if soon after eating/drinking) would be a concern that he may be developing a bowel obstruction requiring surgery
