| Get to an emergency vet clinic now. Don't wait. Breathing problems are serious and so are white gums.

| Go to the ER. White gums are a serious emergency. She isn't oxygenating her blood properly for some reason (or maybe anemia or blood loss or shock). Please do not wait.

| Does she have a temperature ? Os she overheated ? Did she get into something ? Give her some water and cool her off ... give her some nutrical to see if it helps it cant hurt and call an emergency vet if it does not resolve.

| Call the emergency number for your vet. If they are closed they still have an emergency number or an answering service that can contact your vet immediately. Do it now! This could be very serious. Your baby is too precious to not call. Do it now!

| I just called 3 vets at their emergency number and none answered. She seems to be getting better. No more vomitting but still just wants to lie down. Her gums are looking better too... She is very hot though. It may just be bc she ate a lot and then my BF took her outside and she was running around and got too worked up... I'm gonna try to call the vet again...

| Good idea to keep trying the vet. Hopefully she will be just fine. Keep us posted, we are all worried about her.

| PLease keep trying to call the vet emergency number, she could still relapse. I hop she is drinking plenty of water. THis is very scary, and I am glad she is feeling a little better. I hate it when these things happen on a weekend! |

YT 2000 Club Member | With her gums being all white AND her tongue plus the vomiting and not wanting to stand on her own, this is life threatening, she needs to go to the vet or an ER vet, I'd get here there now if you're able. Sending prayers that your lil one will make it.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I am hoping you got her in to a vet, My pom got heat stroke at the groomers, I went to pick her up and she was breathing really funny and gums were white. Itook her immediatley to the vet who put her in an oxygen chamber and on a cooling blanket. Her temp was way over normal. She would have died had I not picked her up when I did and get her immediatley to the vet, Praying your baby will be ok.
