My 9 1/2 week old puppy, Lucky Sport, has been throwing up foamy, white vomit for the past 3 hours. He was fine before a family walk, but started vomiting about an hour after returning. He has only eaten puppy food (Kibbles and Bits) since we got him a week ago. He has received his first set of shots, but is now acting tired and less active. Could he have parvo, and what can I do to help him?
