Oh dear! If Ginger is bleeding from her mouth and not moving, she needs to be taken to the vet immediately. Without being able to examine her, it's hard to say what might be wrong. She may have been hit by a car or sustained some other serious injury, or she may have a wound inside her mouth, or may be bleeding internally. Your veterinarian can examine her and may recommend blood work, x-rays, or other testing if needed to help determine what's wrong.
