My dog isn’t acting like she normally does. She didn’t eat or drink, nose is dry, sleeping all day, panting a lot. And has been shaking all day.

I’m sorry that Sassie is not feeling well! These are all very nonspecific signs and can indicate that she may be dehydrated, in pain, nauseous, or having trouble breathing. I recommend having her seen by a vet as soon as possible as these may be a sign of a medical emergency.
