Default URGENT: lethargic hybrid dwarf.

Hi all, I am asking on behalf of my friend.

Her female hybrind WW, Khaleesi, is acting lethargic every now and then. She runs on her wheel every so often but isn't as energetic as usual. She eats loads (more than her Syrian), and has recently been changed food brand (not sure which one) she appears to have put on weight, her fur is scruffy and her pouches are big and feels as though she has seeds in them, this is constant.

She has been heavy breathing and appeard that she would be passing away but her change in behaviors from that to acting normal is quite odd.

She said her room is warm all the time, so its not torpor.

Unfortunately she can't take her to a vet due to having no time. I might try take her for her but I won't be able to until Wednesday. This started since Thursday and I'm very worried for khaleesi.

I was wondering if she has impacted pouches could she clean them herself or is it best to take them to a vet? I don't know much about dwarves so I hope someone can shed some light on the situation. I was also thinking it may be diabetes, but why is her reaction so bad?

I really hope something can be done for her. She's only 8 months old.
