asked

My dog is frantic, breathing at 120 breaths per minute, and frantically licking one paw. There are no visible injuries or known poison exposure. The behavior started suddenly, and the dog cannot settle. I gave the dog a bath with baking soda, and the breathing rate has calmed to 80 breaths per minute after giving one baby aspirin. I am concerned about a possible bug bite or poison, but we are in a hotel with no visible insects, and the dog walks on blacktop and grass. What could be wrong with the dog, and what should I do?
