My dog is staring, restless, and has a fast heart. Should I worry?

Question

You I woke up to my dog hovering about me just staring at me and not moving only to literally lay behind my neck. Then I go to feed her thinking she’s hungry but I guess she’s not since as soon as I laid down again she launched to lay behind my neck. Now she’s laying neck to me trying to keep herself awake and her heart feels a little fast. Pet's info: Dog | Chorkie | Female | spayed | 6 lbs

Hi and thanks for posting. This sounds a bit concerning. Something certainly sounds off with Sophi today. In order to get a better idea of what is going on, I would recommend Sophi see her veterinarian very soon. Your vet will do an exam to help pinpoint the issue. Your may recommend diagnostic testing such as blood work or x-rays to further evaluate her so they can help her feel better soon.
