asked

I recently adopted a Westie named Murphy, age 6, who has been experiencing stomach issues and has only eaten half his dinner today. He feels warm and I'm concerned due to my previous dog's severe health issues. How do I know if this is an emergency or if I can wait to see a vet as a new patient?
