Expert Answer

Foaming at the mouth and confusion may be caused by poisoning, encephalitis, or severe infection. First, if the dog is greedy and ate poison, it shows foaming, limp limbs, and confusion as nerve signs; in crisis give some soapy water to induce vomiting, then rush to a hospital.

Second, encephalitis or viral infection can cause the same. In any case, take the dog to a hospital promptly for examination and treatment, racing against time to save its life.
