I am sorry to hear about Lola. It sounds like she needs to get to the vet right away. With her symptoms we would worry about things like a bleeding stomach ulcer, trauma due to ingestion of a foreign object, bleeding due to a disease such as Addison's disease, or a blood clotting disorder which can be caused by ingestion of a poison. With all these symptoms you describe I would recommend taking Lola to the vet right away, to an emergency vet if there is one in your area this evening. The vet can examine Lola and will likely recommend bloodwork and x-ray or endoscopy to try to pinpoint the cause of her symptoms and determine the best course of treatment.
