My dog is acting strange almost like she isn't feeling good. I am a new pet owner and have never had a dog before. I'm stressed that her moping around and curling up in her kennel is something more than just tired. She was fine during the day, but in the evening and night she started acting weird. I don't think she's eating any food that she wasn't supposed to. What should I look for to be concerned about or to take her into the vet?

Lethargy can be a sign of illness, but it's a general sign of many illnesses. The best thing to do is keep an eye on Baya tonight. If she is still acting this way in the morning, then I would take her into the vet. If she shows other signs such as vomiting, diarrhea, or a loss of appetite, take her into a vet asap. I hope this helps!
