My dog is nodding off, jumpy, and unresponsive. Is it an emergency?

My dog is nodding off and her movements are really jumpy and she isn't responding to me opening a bag of chips or the doorbell ringing and I'm worried. Can you help? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female

These are signs of a potential toxin ingestion. If this has gone on for more than 30 mins-1 hr, then I would highly recommend taking Bella in to your local ER vet for an assessment and treatment to help stabilize her condition. Best wishes with your pet Bella moving forward. I hope that she is able to make a full and speedy recovery. Take care!
