My 13-year-old Chiweenie, Duke, has a very low appetite and has lost a lot of weight. He eats a little and drinks normally, but he's been licking fine dirt on the cement and occasionally vomiting yellow foam. His stool looks normal but is smaller due to his reduced food intake. He doesn't seem to be in pain, and there are no visible worms in his stool. What could be causing this and what should I do until I can get him to the vet?
