Tommy is thin and this may be related to the vomiting but it’s impossible to know without being able to examine him. There are many possible causes which could be causing the vomiting and constipation. I recommend to have him examined by his veterinarian. Bring in a fece sample to check for worms, coccidia and giardia. Parasites can cause vomiting and being too thin. You should also have his blood work checked for kidney disease and pancreatic insufficiency. Review his vaccine record to know if this could be a virus like parvo or distemper. Lastly, your veterinarian may also recommend an x-ray or ultrasound to check for a foreign object causing a partial obstruction. You should be feeding Tommy a bland diet for now of boiled white meat chicken (25%) and plain boiled white rice (75%). Feed him smaller, more frequent meals. Your vet may also look into a diet trial to rule out IBS. I hope this helps and best of luck.
