I have a 9 month old chiuauah male that began vomiting yesterday morning. He is continuing to vomit but will drink water at this point. He has also began to lose his bladder control and has lost a tooth. He has also had one episode of diarrhea. Please help I am a single out of work mother with very little income and a large love for my pets.

This sounds very serious. I would not try to treat this at home - he can become rapidly dehydrated and go downhill fast with vomiting and diarrhea. The urinary incontinence also worries me. He needs to see the vet asap - please do what it takes to get him there.

I have asked friends and family to help financially however everyone with this economy is strapped. I have also applied for the care card but due to my credit it has been denied. I just want to help my boy, but there is no vet willing to work with me.

I understand. I really do. Everyone is having a rough time with bills to pay. Check out google - there are a lot of groups online that help pay vet bills for people in need.
Ultimately, if you can't provide him with the medical care that he needs, you should consider surrendering him to a no-kill shelter that can care for him.
