My dog is suddenly lethargic, won't eat, and shivering. Is she sick?

Question

Since we have been home this afternoon our pup had refused to come out of her crate, slept all afternoon and evening, refused to eat and drink, not wanting to do any normal activities, shivering, seems out of it, scared at times. She is always excited when we come home and there was no reaction; she even refused her special yogurt treats. Not sure what to do?

This can be a sign that Daisy is sick. I would try to tempt her to eat by offering some boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice. If she refuses to eat that and is still acting this way in the morning, I would take her into the vet for a health check. If she starts vomiting, has diarrhea, and/or becomes very lethargic, then I would rush her into an ER vet. Best of luck.
