my 8 year old chihuahua greeted us with a couple of barks when we reached home.
later in the kitchen, i spotted her lying on her side and she was discharging urine. I felt her heartbeat, it was pretty fast.
please do tell me what to do and what is wrong with her

I'm guessing Seizure or stroke. Get her to the vet ASAP

seizure sounds like a good possibility but SO many things can trigger one. Get her to the vet.

Please get her to the vet. Hypoglycemia is a major lifethreatening problem in Chihuahuas. Roxy has gone into hypoglycemic shock before and it scared me to death. Seizures can be brought on by this.

shes probably dead. i saw last glimpses of her. she was bubbling through her nose and yeah i think that she had a seizure. worst of all, my parents didnt call the vet after the seizure but AFTER SHE HAD THE SEIZURE.
i feel so sorry for her and just now, was giving her CPR desperately.
she is now in the pet taxi going to the vets.
i would pay anything in the world for her to be right at my side, barking again.
,.....
I'm sorry. :(
She's going to the vets and you aren't with her? Are you parents taking her? :confused:
Please let us know what happens. We worry. I'm glad you came back.

I'm confused too ... I really didn't understand her last post ... I looked up the profile but didn't help. Doesn't sound good through , and hope she knows we're here for her.

OH NO!! It is so sad when this stuff happens to our beloved buddies. Please tell us what happens. Remember that whatever happens to your bud, she will always be ok - it is you that I am concerned about. I think it hurts more being left behind......
