The fact that her tongue is white, her breath stinks, she's lethargic, vomits and she shakes is what really scares me. These are all symptoms of liver shunt, BUT it could just be that she is dehydrated!! She needs more fluids. Do you give her access to water at all times? Shaking even after having that maple syrup means that it's probably not hypoglycemia..This could be a bigger problem. Have you had her bile acid tested? Does she eat with gusto? Or is she a picky eater?
Do NOT give her seasoned food...You can give her plain boiled chicken or plain white rice or things like that. She could get pancreatitis and you will end up with a HUGE vet bill. Ol Roy is not a quality food. Do not feed grapes, raisins, or onions because they are toxic to dogs.
You can definitely feed canned food, which I personally feel is better for them because it's less processed and contains more moisture which all dogs need, especially this one, but it needs to be HIGH quality canned food, not anything you can buy at wal-mart or the grocery store. Try Natural Balance or Solid Gold which you can buy at Petco.
