What could be causing this and what should we do?

Our small Bichon dog delivered 8 puppies 6 days ago. She started Beneful puppy food 3 days ago and has since had diarrhea, vomited overnight for 2 nights, and started urinating in the house at night, which is unusual for her. Is this normal, and should we switch her food or wait it out? Is there anything I can give her to help?

My 7-year-old Bichon Havanese has a bloated stomach that feels tight like a balloon, and I'm unsure if he's pooping. My husband noticed what looked like black tar the last time he saw it. The dog acts normal except for growling more than usual when picked up. How long has this been going on, and is he eating and drinking normally?
