I have a 5yr Rottweiler. When we 1st got her she refused to eat her dry food that the prev owner had her on. We had to give her canned food until we gradually weaned her off to dry again. That has been 4yrs. Over the past week wee and 1/2 she started again but now won't even eat canned food and as of today can barely move. We have concerns that she may have been poisoned. If so is it possible to save her or will the poison take her anyway. Also if not poison what could this be?
This is the holiday season and we don't have the money to take her in for a 100-200 visit.

Optional Information:
Age: 5; Female; Breed: Rottweiler

We have some neighbors that don't like her(even though she is fenced up and very mild tempered).
She got out about a year ago and they shot at her.(We live in the country)
Just a thought about the poisoning. Grasping at straws really.
