One skipped meal usually has little effect; resume food gradually. But hunger may lead to trash raiding and bad food causing gastritis; chronic hunger risks gastritis, fatty liver, malnutrition.

Yellow foam vomiting has many causes: indigestion, gastroenteritis, pancreatitis, parasites. Cold from lying on the floor can trigger it; keep warm and use probiotics, or see a vet.
Previously the dog ate a chicken a day; for the past month eats very little and is very low; do not know why
Causes of a German Shepherd's anorexia and low mood include indigestion, parasites, and monotonous diet. Long-term greasy meat burdens the gut.
Adopted a British Shorthair two days ago; it has a cold. For three days eats nothing, only drinks. Got a shot tonight; vomited on the way home, maybe carsick, then at home, and just again.
Vomiting after a shot may be carsickness, a vaccine reaction, or food intolerance/stress. Keep warm, monitor; severe or prolonged vomiting needs a vet.
My dog ate a little daffodil, vomited three times, still energetic, now asleep – need a vet

My dog suddenly stopped coming home, lay outside, hasn’t eaten for 3 days, now has bloody stool and is weak and cold
Blood in stool and anorexia can be poisoning, parasites, or viral disease, but by day 3 it's past the time for induced vomiting, so don't induce. Best to go to a vet; if not, warm it, give glucose-saline, pet antibiotics (amox-clav, bismuth) and probiotics. Tomato-soup-like stool suggests viral infection needing interferon and parvo monoclonal; puppy viral mortality is high, so hospitalization is better.
What happens if a puppy eats hot dog food
