Your poor pup! The symptoms you are describing are serious and do require an immediate trip to the vet. She could have a foreign body or may be suffering from hemorrhagic gastroenteritis. If she is unvaccinated, she could have parvovirus. There truly isn't anything you can do at home for her, and vet care is needed. If paying for a vet is an issue, you can see if your vet accepts payment plans, if there is a low cost clinic in your area, or you can apply for Care Credit online. There is also an organization called Red Rover that give grants for treatment of sick animals, and you can see if you qualify for one of their grants. http://www.humanesociety.org/animals/resources/tips/trouble_affording_pet.html?credit=web_id91754962 https://www.redrover.org https://www.carecredit.com
