Vomiting lab

Our 7yo golden lab started vomiting yesterday.. About 10 times in total and last one just now..
He had a couple of 'shapes' for breakfast.
Would you take him to vets or watch and wait?
Not been scavenging, no change to diet. Worked just before Xmas.
Seems ok in himself.
Thanks

Yes I think I'd be taking him just for a check up and reassurance. Hope he's ok.

He's just vomited bile with blood in, so we're off to the vet at 2:40.
Thank you

Max Probably gastroenteritis so he's had an anti sickness, antibiotic and something to bring his temp down. Got an electrolyte drink for him but if he doesn't drink or keeps vomming then back in tomorrow for iv fluids and X-ray.
Seems okay though

Fingers crossed for you.

My Lab started vomiting after eating Shapes. I stopped giving them to him and he's been fine since. Obviously I can't say for certain that there was any link between the two but it did happen on three occasions.
