Meeka may be in pain from a slipped disk or abdominal pain or another very painful condition. You should take her to a veterinarian today for an exam and pain relief. Unfortunately not wanting to walk is a very unspecific sign so your dog needs a hands-on exam by your veterinarian to find out what the problem is.
