I would have your pup checked out right away, it's possible it's an allergic reaction to something or it could be something more serious.

It could be a reaction to any cleaners you use in your house, chemicals in the yard, your pup may have been bitten by an insect or stung.

Here is a list of toxic plants-


There are indoor and outdoor plants that are toxic.
 
Thank you!! She isn’t vomiting or having diarrhea so I don’t think she ate anything....we also haven’t changed anything with cleaners or treats/food. Maybe a bite. Could an allergy be developed and cause a reaction that sudden? So baffling to me.
If she was stung or bitten by a insect, sometimes it only takes a few minutes for a reaction, sometimes longer. It depends on what type of insect.

My first golden was stung by a wasp and bitten by a spider twice. The wasp sting had an immediate reaction, the spider bites took a little bit longer. Lots of swelling, had to take him to the Vet each time for a shot and the Vet prescribed Benadryl.
