Our dogwood tree bloomed beautifully the spring, and now it looks very sick. What can I do?

Hi Eileen,
It's hard for me to see the cause from the pictures provided. However, I suspect dogwood anthracnose, which is described in the article at the link below.

Please be sure to read the article, then compare with the symptoms you have seen and are seeing on your dogwood to compare. If you do not think this is the culprit, please send pictures of what you did find and that will help me get a better idea of what is going on. 
Thank you,
