He has had his parvo shot 2 mths ago, we live in the country and he eats everthing in site. Is this serious or should i let it ride out for the next day or so? Please help my son is freaking out...

    Unfortunately this sounds more serious than your basic gastroenteritis from eating something that didn't set well. 

    A 7 month old lab (ie Marley and Me) is prone to eating all kinds of things that can lead to potential GI obstructions.  i would get him to a veterinarian as soon as you can to get him xrays and treatment. 

    All the best for Ozzie...
