This is now Romies journal

So this morning, Romie didn't eat his breakfast. We've been noting this in the last couple of days.
Two weeks ago he didn't eat his breakfast and later that afternoon he horked up a bunch of leaves.
This happened again last week.
A few days before that Romie wouldn't eat his dinner and had runs all over the carpet while we were at work.
This morning Rob told me he didn't eat his breakfast and left for work. I woke up and tried to feed him again but he was determined to go outside. So I let him out and fed Pappy(our other dog) and then brought Pappy out on his leash. Romie seemed playful and tried to play with Pappy outside but Pappy had to poop and went about his business. Miffed, Romie went back to Roming TM.
When Pappy was done I brought him in and then called Romie in. He didn't want to come but I forced him.
I finished getting ready and just as I put my brush down I heard: "HORK...Splat!"
I ran out to find a VERY large puddle of mostly liquid mixed with grass all over the carpet.
I had just enough time to wetvac it up and comfort the dog a bit before I had to leave.
As I was leaving, Romie tried to bolt out again but I couldn't let him out as I was going to be late.
Tonight I came home and there were no accidents on the carpet thankfully but Romie wouldn't eat his dinner.
I took them both out twice and they acted okay. Romie even let me throw the ball for him a couple of times.
After Rob got home we tried to feed him again and he ate a couple of kibble out of Robs hand but then lost interest and laid down.
A little bit later I fed Romie by hand about three handfulls until he lost interest again and laid down.
I had a breakdown at this point and was convinced Romie was dying.
An hour or so later we discussed that maybe he just didn't like the food...it would make sense in the way that when he threw up it was all water and grass...if he didn't like the food and wouldn't eat he was probably sick from starving.
About an hour ago I got some of the old dog food we were feeding Pappy and gave him a handfull. He gobbled it up like he hadn't eaten in a week.
I put another large handfull in his bowl and he ate that up as well.
So hopefully, he either didn't like his other food or was aware that it didn't agree with him and refused to eat it...thus making himself sick.
I really hope this is the case because he has been fine and seems really content since we fed him the other food.
I'll keep you posted.
