Check him thoroughly to see if there's any hint of injury and watch him closely tonight. If you have your vet's home number, call and tell him/her what's going on. Your vet can give you advice on how best to care for your dog until tomorrow when you hopefully can bring him to the office and get him examined.

Withhold nutrition for twenty-four hours. ensure he's eating even though. After 24 hours, presented the vomiting has stopped, reintroduce nutrition with boiled rice and fowl. And upload somewhat organic yogurt. even though, as this has been happening for 3 days, you fairly ought to work out a vet - he would elect a path of antibiotics if he's picked up some trojan horse - and a vet can sense his tummy to substantiate he's not eaten some thing that has blocked his digestive tract. in case you spot any blood, whatsoever, that's an emergency. Labs get into all styles of stuff, and that i wouldn't rule out him eating some thing he don't have had. i'd hate to assert do no longer bypass to a vet, after which you lose him!!!

Take him to the vet NOW! Go to the emergency vet if you have to! That is the ONLY place that is going to be able to help your beloved pet.
Seriously, why do so many people have a SERIOUS problem with their pet, and think they can just come onto Yahoo and find the answers?! This is NOT how it works. If you were shaking and could not get up, would you have friend get on Yahoo and ask what she should do? NO!! You would have your friend call an ambulance!
Take your dog to the vet, and let the professionals handle it!!

WOW. Thats difficult to say. Are there any other symtoms. Check your dog for bites and injuries. It sounds like its in shock. Or suffering from hypothermia if it was out all night in the cold. I know its sunday and no vets are open. Try to get your dog to drink and feed it a snack from your hand. This will give you an idea how bad the dog is. If the dog is suffering from hypothermia. Dont throw blankets on it. Keep it in the house and let the dog warm up naturally. If its in shock just keep it calm. If nothing changes make a vet appointment for 1st thing in the morning.

It hink he needs to see the vet. He has probably eaten something that could be a poison. If you care about this dog, take him to a vet. Otherwise bring him to the humane society so that he will not suffer any longer.

There is no way for us to diagnose anything over the computer. Don't be cheap, take your dog to the vet so it doesn't suffer. It could have been poisoned or something

Besides going to the vet? If he's having trouble getting up he might have been hit by a car or something. It could be something serious!

He has either caught a chill, or he has been bitten by something. If you care about the dog, go to the vet.

seriously, why would you not take him to the vet if he is shivering and won't get up? these are very bad signs, and he needs more help than you are capable of giving him. you need to take him to a vet and leave him there if you can't or won't take care of him.
