Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It does appear that Diamond has several issues. Diarrhea and vomiting could be due to something like gastroenteritis for example. The breathing issues could be due to a lot of factors such as pneumonia or heart disease, among other possibilities. The mass may be benign or malignant. I highly recommend that you have her evaluated by a veterinarian who can start by performing a physical examination on her and taking it from there. Good luck!
