Our dog is an 85 pound lap dog, and is 11 yo. He stays inside, and we don’t keep anything poisonous or toxic out for him to eat, as we have small children also.

You said he isn't interested in drinking. Mrs. Eagle says you should try to get gatorade or sugar water in him using some sort of syringe or turkey baster.

If he's lying down, don't let him lie down on one side too long. That's not good for his lungs.

Put a towel under his chest and gently lift him to his feet and walk him around from time to time.

Did your children manageto feed him some chocolate? I had that happen to a dog of mine. Neede some IV and stomache lavage. Pretty scary stuff.
