My puppy ate something and is walking drunk, drooling. Is it serious?

Question

Bella is a puppy and is probably 2-3 months old. She is still small. She ingested something that has made her walk like she's drunk and whine a lot. She is restless, is drooling, and can't hold her weight. Other dog had the same symptoms before peeing and pooping everywhere. I thought maybe it was bleach, but could it be tylenol? Is there a way to ease the pain, or make it stop? Will she die? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | unspayed | 2 months and 7 days old | 8 lbs

It certainly sounds like Bella could have gotten into something toxic and it is a medical emergency. When a dog walks like they are drunk, that can be a sign of antifreeze ingestion. Depending on what she ate, she could diet without veterinary treatment and it is imperative that she is seen by a vet now. Please take her into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website.
