I have a 14 week old lab/terrier mix and we broght it home 2 days ago from the rescue home and its been sleeping a lot and it threw up this morning and today, it only plays for like 30 minutes then goes back to sleep or to lay down in its bed. Should I be worried??
The first step after picking a pup up...from ANYWHERE...breeder, rescue or pound...is to take it to the Vet for a health check. A 14 week old pup will still sleep a lot (compared to an adult dog)...And, they do throw up now and again (youngsters seem to do this when their tummys are empty)...Still, a health check is imparative for both the pups future health...and your peace of mind...

Sounds like you need to take a trip to the vet or take the puppy back to the rescue. This is not normal and the puppy could have many things from parasites to a virus that could kill the puppy, You have two choices, take it to the vet or back to where you got it from. It needs to be seen by a doctor.
no id say the dog might just be old and I used to have a dog and it used to get sick and then eat the sick back up horrible!!
bring your puppy to the vet, it may have parvo.
