Question

HI my dog Bubbles I believe is sick or she might be I really don't know. Symptoms- Vomiting Watery eyes Weakness Refuses to interact with us (This is the first time she's ever been sick) Please answer should I be worried?? Is it something serious? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | unspayed

I would be very concerned about Bubbles, and take her into a vet immediately. I see that she isn't spayed, which means she can develop a life threatening infection of the uterus called a pyometra. A pyometra is fatal without treatment, and it causes vomiting, weakness, and lethargy, all signs she is showing. Without seeing her in person, I can't say for certain if she has one or not, but because of the seriousness of a pyometra I would take her into vet now. 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. Best of luck, I hope this helps!
