It's concerning to hear that your Doberman Pinscher is experiencing weakness, a lack of interest in drinking water, and vomiting. These symptoms can stem from various issues, such as gastrointestinal upset, dehydration, or even an infection.

Firstly, make sure she has access to fresh water at all times. You might try offering her ice cubes or a small amount of low-sodium chicken broth to encourage her to drink. Keep a close eye on her for any additional symptoms like diarrhea, lethargy, or changes in behavior.

Given that she's not drinking water and has vomited, dehydration is a significant risk. You can check her gums to assess her hydration status; they should be moist and pink. If her gums appear dry or pale, this indicates dehydration, and she will need fluids urgently.

Considering her age and the symptoms she's displaying, it's essential to monitor her closely. If she continues to refuse water, vomits again, or shows any signs of severe lethargy, it's crucial to seek veterinary care immediately. These symptoms can escalate quickly, and a veterinarian can provide the necessary treatments to stabilize her condition.

If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please don't hesitate to ask. Thank you.
