My dog is in pain, snorting, and struggling to move. Vet emergency?

Question

My dog is crying from gentle touches to his stomach and struggles getting up stairs or standing after laying down. He had 2 warts (one wart reoccurring) two/three months ago. Said to be benign. He is now snorting when breathing for the past hour. Will he be okay to keep overnight or should we take him to a vet hospital?

It sounds like Archie is very painful and may be in respiratory distress. It is definitely possible that something serious has happened and I recommend taking him to the emergency veterinarian tonight. There are a few life-threatening conditions that may be a possibility. I know the emergency vet is expensive, but I honestly would not wait with the problems you are describing.
