My dog is sick, won't eat, has dry nose and pale gums. What's wrong?

Question

My dog has been getting sick since yesterday. She won’t eat or drink and her nose is dry and gums are pale. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed

Dr. Massimo Orioles, DVM, Cert AVP, MRCVS · Accepted Answer

These signs are quite concerning, especially the pale gums, which are compatible with an anemic state (less red blood cells than normal). A clinical examination at your local veterinarian is essential to confirm these clinical suspicions and treat appropriately. Blood test will be required.
