Since yesterday my dog has been throwing up, he won’t eat, he barely has been drinking, he’s used the bathroom once today that I know of, he just wants to lay down, when he does throw up it’s a milky color and it has specs of red and greenish yellow

I'm quite concerned the specs of red in Kane's vomit is blood. Vomiting blood is a medical emergency and he sounds quite sick. You cannot treat this at home, you need to take him into a vet immediately.

Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question. Poor Bandit! I am worried that he is throwing up red stuff, and I’m concerned it could be blood. Vomiting blood is a medical emergency. I would take him into another vet immediately since you feel your vet didn’t respond well to your concerns. I hope this helps!
