Get em to a vet!!! 

Sounds almost like poisoning of some kind....  The longer you wait, the worse the prognosis...

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

It induces vomiting almost instantly and avoids any poisons being absorbed into the bloodstream if its done soon enough.

That's good that he threw up. The hydrogen peroxide can be a life saver for a dog. It sounds like it worked. Keep us updated RT.

This same type of thing happened to our family lab when she was about 6.  She had no balance and was falling and really wobbly and sick.  Took her to the vet and they induce vomiting and fed her charcoal and kept her overnight.  We found out she had eaten the neighbors compost, soup that was fine to eat is not so fine once it is starting to rot....she made it though just fine.

My DUKE is in the vets, got an iv in him, doing tests on him, tumor, kidney tests, no diagnosis yet. No better or no worse

Good luck RT! 
My dog ate rat poisoning once, and was in very bad shape.  The vet induced vomiting, and then 2 blood transfusions, and he pulled thru. 

Good luck and keep us posted!
