I'm sorry Lucy isn't well. There is some water in the tinned dog food, so she will be getting moisture from that. You can add water to the tinned food to get more moisture in her. Keep in touch with her vet, and if she hasn't drank some water in another 24 hours, I'd take her back into a vet. Best of luck.
