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!

Lola sounds very sick. I see she isn't spayed, and she could have a pyometra causing her symptoms. A pyometra is an infection of the uterus that is fatal without treatment. This cannot be treated at home, she has to see a vet immediately.

I'm sorry Bony is sick! Heavy breathing can be a sign of pain, and it can be connected to the vomiting. I see that she isn't spayed, and in dogs who aren't spayed, a pyometra is a risk. This is when the uterus becomes infected, and it does cause pain and vomiting. A pyometra is fatal without treatment, and is considered a medical emergency. She could also have a GI illness, a foreign body, or pancreatitis causing her symptoms. Because I can't see her in person to rule anything out out and due to the fact that a pyometra is so deadly, my recommendation is to take her into a vet now. The vet can diagnose what is causing her symptoms and how best to treat it. 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. I hope this helps!
