Vomiting, diarrhea, refusal to eat or drink, and wobbliness are definitely concerning, especially in an older dog. These signs can be caused by a variety of issues, such as gastrointestinal problems, infections, toxins, or even more serious conditions like kidney or liver disease.

Given the severity and combination of these symptoms, it's crucial to seek veterinary care immediately. Dehydration can set in quickly, particularly if your dog isn't drinking water and is losing fluids through vomiting and diarrhea. The wobbliness could indicate weakness or a more serious underlying issue that requires prompt attention.

In the meantime, try to keep your dog as comfortable as possible. Ensure he has a quiet, warm place to rest, and avoid offering food or water until you can get professional advice, as this might worsen his condition.

Please take your dog to a veterinarian as soon as possible for a thorough examination and appropriate treatment. If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask. Thank you.

I'm really sorry to hear that your dog is feeling so unwell. Given his symptoms—vomiting, diarrhea, refusal to eat or drink, wobbliness, and now lethargy—this situation is quite serious.

Please take your dog to an emergency veterinary clinic right away. The lethargy and lack of movement are particularly concerning and suggest that he needs urgent care.
