The symptoms you're observing in your dog are indeed concerning and could suggest a serious health issue. When a dog experiences a loss of appetite, difficulty breathing, inability to defecate, shakiness, and frequent hacking, it is crucial to address these signs promptly. These symptoms might be linked to various conditions, such as a gastrointestinal blockage, respiratory problems, or even a systemic infection.

Given the severity and combination of these symptoms, I urge you to seek veterinary care immediately. A veterinarian can conduct a comprehensive examination, which may include imaging or blood tests, to identify the root cause and administer the appropriate treatment.

While you arrange for veterinary care, try to keep your dog calm and comfortable. It's important not to force food or water, as this could worsen the situation. Keep a close eye on your dog's condition and make a note of any changes or additional symptoms to discuss with the veterinarian.

Please make it a priority to take your dog to a veterinary clinic or animal hospital without delay. If you have any further questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out. Thank you.
