My 2 year old golden retriever has been drooling more and more the past two days. She normally gulps down her food but at both meals today she has been putting a few pieces in her mouth, moving them around a lot, sometimes dropping them out of her mouth with a bunch of drool. But she does finish the food. I’m getting concerned now as she just doesn’t seem right. Lethargic, she seems sick or in pain, disinterested, I just don’t know. I feel like she’s dying and I’m terrified. No vet open.

Luna does sound pretty bad off, and she could be nauseous or have a severe dental problem. I think it's best she sees a vet now. Please take her into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website.
