I know that this is disgusting-but I need some opinions-
My husband and I were at a wedding today, we were gone for about 3 hours. As soon as we got home and opened the door, we could smell the poo. He is about 2 and a half years old and we are way beyond pooing in the crate. Jack is all the way in the back bedroom, so we knew it had to be bad. We had no idea. When we get down the hallway, there is our baby standing in his crate, covered in poo. The floor is soaked, he sprayed up and down the walls, his pillow was soaked, etc. A definite issue with projectile diarrhea. You could also tell he had vomited. We instantly took him outdoors and hosed him off. He then went to the bathroom again and it was just water. There was a few drops of blood that came out after he finished pooing. We know that he didn't eat anything, as we have been down that road before and the crate now sits in the middle of the room several feet away from anything on all sides.
Our vet was closed, and the emergency vet says what they always say-bring him in. This is the same emergency vet that told me to bring in my dog when he ate a piece of raw, boneless chicken breast telling me it would poison him. (They charge 130.00 just to come in.) I did some research here and decided that he would be, and was, fine. They obviously know nothing of BARF. I am wondering if the pup is resting comfortably and we seem to have the frequency under control, should we just stay up tonight, monitor him and be waiting for the doors to open at the vet tomorrow, or take him to the emergency vet tonight? We have pulled his food and have limited water because he would drink and vomit. Does anyone have any idea what could be the deal? Thanks for any help you can give

I sure hope little Jack is feeling better soon and Chance sends gentle wiggles your way ( as that is all he is allowed 
) Keep us posted and we will do the same.
