My dog's been very sick and throwing up badly for about a week. He's a small dog and he's better except now, I can not get him to eat anything at all. He's now only drinking water. He needs to eat. What can I do? How long do I have before he dies of malnutrition? I love my dog and he's only a year old. I do not want him dying.

First, has the dog been to the vet? Your pooch might have eaten something toxic and NEEDS to see the vet...IMMEDIATELY !! If the vet has said the dog is okay, but you can't get it to eat, try meat-type baby food. My cat refused her regular food AND human food, but took to the baby food easily. Try plain yogurt also...it will help get the dog's digestive tract going again without casing stomach upset (unless your dog doesn't tolerate dairy).
Good Luck !
A week is a long time to not eat. I would call the vet
Your dog needs to see a Vet right away. If he has been vomiting and not eating for a week he may have parvo. Was he vaccinated? Parvo is a very serious disease in puppies.
