My dog, Maude, has slightly runny stool with blood in it. She could have eaten tree needles during Christmas decorations, but we didn't see her eat any. She weighs 18lbs and is 2 years old. She hasn't vomited and allowed me to clean her bottom without discomfort. What should I do?

My dog has a sensitive stomach and ate some food that might have gone bad this morning, along with pieces of house plants including a philodendron and coleus. He's been vomiting since and looks unwell. He's about 57lbs, 9 years old, and is shivering a bit. What should I do to help him?
