My 9 week old puppy got the parvo shot yesterday and he's not eating and he keeps throwing up, but it's just water and fluid I think. We gave him the medicine they told us to and we injected the fluids just like they told us. He also has been sleeping all day. I'm asking is it's normal for my dog to be doing this after the shot.

When my dogs all got their first shots the vet told me for the first 24 hours the dog can get sick and not feel well at all. They also told me if this lasted longer then I needed to call them and get the dog back to the vet immediately to have him looked at. I never had an issue with my dogs throwing up after their first shots. I think I would actually call the vet and talk with them to see if you can bring the dog back in right now and have him checked out. I would not wait a long time to do this one because the dog can have an allergic reaction to the shot or there could be another issue with the dog.
From research I've seen this is pretty normal but pups do not all react the same way after getting shots (same as people) but you are paying this vet so use them - call and ask questions because your worries should be addressed. Try to write down exactly what is happening and time also as this is what they will need to know.
Hope he is all better now.
