Often rescues get rid of sick pets to get a quick $$$$ and pass on problems to a new family. Was there an adoption fee and how much was it? Did they give you his veterinary records as proof that he has been to a vet and he has a clean bill of health? Was he tested for heartworm? This rescue should have explained to you what food to buy and if he eats dry food, he should be drinking a lot of water. Do not buy cheap food at a grocery store. I am not sure what dry heaves are, maybe you should take this toy away and get him something washable and see if he still gets dry heaves? He also may have something stuck in his throat. You could also call the rescue and find out if he had dry heaves before you adopted him?
