He was fine all day. Then all of a sudden he started wining, he could barely hold himself up, he’s very timid and scared. Almost like he’s drunk. He keeps going in and out

It sounds like your dog is experiencing some serious symptoms that could indicate a neurological issue or another urgent medical condition. The sudden onset of whining, difficulty standing, and appearing disoriented or "drunk" are concerning signs that require immediate attention.

These symptoms could be related to a number of issues, such as ingestion of a toxin, a neurological disorder, or even an inner ear problem affecting balance. Given the severity and suddenness of these symptoms, it's crucial to seek veterinary care as soon as possible. A veterinarian can perform the necessary examinations and tests to determine the underlying cause and provide appropriate treatment.

In the meantime, try to keep your dog calm and in a safe environment to prevent any injuries from falling or stumbling. Avoid offering food or water until a veterinarian has assessed him, as this could complicate the situation if he is having trouble swallowing or if there's a risk of aspiration.

Please take your dog to a veterinary hospital or emergency clinic immediately. If you have any further questions please ask us. Thank you.
