My dog, Jackie, a 2-year-old Sharpea/Pit mix, is showing symptoms of pale gums, constant drooling, lethargy, disorientation, loss of appetite, and impaired walking ability. She also consumes a lot of water from a gravity waterer. What could be causing these symptoms and what non-vet treatments can I try?

My German Shepherd, Tyla, who is around five years old and was previously malnourished, has stopped eating for two days. She is a little quieter and more tired than usual but shows no signs of pain. She has not vomited or had diarrhea. What should I do to encourage her to eat and when should I seek further veterinary care?
