Oh my. Poor girl. Her belly is seriously distended which could be caused by congestive heart failure, a mass, or a condition called pyometra (infected uterus seen in nonspayed female dogs). I highly recommend taking Lala to your local vet right away to have her checked out. The vet will want to do a proper exam and then next would be radiographs (x-rays) of her belly and bloodwork to pinpoint the underyling problem. I really hope that your pet Lala is able to make a full and speedy recovery. Best wishes and take care!
