Thank you for submitting your question regarding Toby. I recommend that he sees a veterinarian today. That is not normal behavior for a dog. He may be experiencing intense pain or an internal disease that is making him feel ill. The veterinarian will examine him and may recommend testing such as x-rays or blood work. He is likely dehydrated from not eating properly. Fluids can help to correct this if it has happened. I hope this information helps!
