Pet's info: Dog | South Russian Shepherd Dog | Female | spayed | 99 lbs
Hello, I'm very worried about my dog. She is restless, panting heavily and whining since last night. She just want to go outside and lay in the dirt. I thought it was her stomach so I've put her on a diet and I am giving her active carbon to clear out anything that she might have eaten, but I'm not sure it's the stomach. She eats well, isn't lethargic. She doesn't drinks very little water. She is a Yugoslavian Shepherd Dog, could not find that breed her. 5 years old.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Bear. I recommend that she sees a veterinarian today. She may be painful somewhere, experiencing gastrointestinal distress or could have another internal problem such as kidney disease. Based on her exam findings, her veterinarian may recommend medication or laboratory work and x-rays if the cause of her symptoms is not readily identifiable. It is worrisome that she just wants to lay in the dirt. I hope this information helps!
