if it hasn't ate anything since monday i wouldn't expect anything coming out the back end...sounds like a trip to the vet for an ultrasound...dam labs will chew up/eat anything they can fit in their mouths.  the not drinking water would concern me more than not eating...
beer---it's whats for dinner

Not eating-medium concern
Not drinking- Vet trip especially since Monday
Shut up and Hunt!

Ya, something's not right.  Could be a intestine/bowel obstruction or even worse.  Get him in to the dog sawbones for some tests.  A 9 MO lab "always" eats and drinks.  Does he walk somewhat hunched over with his tail down?  Again, get him in.

My pup did that years ago.  Ate a large piece of towel.   Surgery. 
Don't wait too long.  Take him to the vet.   
Old enough to know better.
Young enough to go for it.

Well guys figured I'd give an update. Bear is doing good and back to his normal self. I watched him very close over the next few days and he started to eat and drink more and more. The wife and I were both at the point to take him in when he snapped out of it. Thanks everyone for thee tips.
