Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | unspayed
Hi, my friend's dog is shaking and drooling profusely. She will not eat. She has been acting very ill and is an adut dog who had a litter of 7 about a month ago. There is no vet nearby or animal hospital. Do you have any suggestions or solutions for at home care?

Poor Kaye! Unfortunately no, I do not have any solutions for at home care. She sounds extremely ill, and given that she had a litter of puppies a month ago, she could be suffering from a postpartum infection or mastitis causing her symptoms. She has to have her symptoms diagnosed by a vet in order to be treated properly, and I would be very concerned that if she is left untreated, she could die. The best thing that can be done for her is find the nearest vet and get her into it as soon as possible. I see you live in Yuba City, CA and with a search I found the Northpointe Veterinary Hospital which is open 24 hours. The phone number is 530-674-8670. Please rush her into a vet now.
