he should be ok having eaten this dose of ibuprofen. do not feed him or let him drink for 4-6 hours after his last episode of vomiting. if he vomits more than 6 times in a 12 hour period, take him to your vet for a checkup, as he will probably need intensive care, including fluid treatment, medication, and possibly bloodwork. if he seems to be doing ok, you can feed him a tiny bland diet of boiled chicken with rice, just a tiny bit at a time. call your vet to let them know what happened so they can update their records and let you know if and when they want to see your pup. good luck and i hope all goes well.
