It sounds like your puppy is experiencing some concerning symptoms. Frequent vomiting, especially when accompanied by lethargy, loss of appetite, and weight loss, can indicate a range of issues. In young puppies, these symptoms might result from something as simple as dietary indiscretion—eating something they shouldn't have—to more serious conditions like infections or parasites.

Since your puppy is vomiting clear liquid multiple times a day, it's important to monitor him closely. Keeping him hydrated is crucial, as dehydration can quickly become a concern in young puppies. You might try offering small amounts of water frequently, but if he continues to vomit even water, it may be best to withhold food and water for a short period, just a few hours, to allow his stomach to settle.

Given the combination of symptoms, including lethargy and loss of appetite, it's essential to keep a close eye on him. If there's no improvement or if he continues to vomit, I strongly recommend seeking veterinary care as soon as possible. Puppies can deteriorate quickly, and a veterinarian can provide the necessary treatment and diagnostics to address the underlying issue.

If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask. Thank you.
