Puppy suddenly lethargic, unsteady, and peeing. Is it an emergency?

Question

My puppy has just suddenly become very tired/lethargic, unsteady when standing, unresponsive to food, treats, and water and peed on me 3 times while holding her, which she never does. I'm a new puppy owner so I'm not sure if I should be worried or not. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | unspayed | 2 months and 25 days old

Yes, I would definitely be worried about Bella! It sounds like she is very sick, and it's concerning that this has come on suddenly. She needs veterinary care now, as her symptoms sound like a medical emergency to me. 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. Good luck!
