Hi, I’m trying to figure out what’s wrong with my dog, he’s up to date with shots but since 4 this morning he’s been throwing up nonstop it was first all brown and mushy but now it’s either clear or foamy

Loki could have a severe GI illness, may have eaten something rotten, could have a foreign body, or could have pancreatitis. Given that he has been vomiting all day, the time for home remedies has passed and he needs to see a vet now. Please take him into an ER vet right away.
