dog symptoms
Every dog has to go through it, every dog most probably hates it as much as anyone else does, but the fact of the matter is that your dog will show sick symptoms once in a while and will become ill.
A dog’s loss of appetite is a good well recognised symptom of illness as well as over eating without weight gain, sudden weight loss, or diarrhoea. Keep an eye on your dog’s diet and food habits to make this easier to recognise when it happens.
Symptoms of sick Dog may include some of the following:
- Strong Ear smell, shaking of the head, discharge: Mites, Yeast infection or Mites.
- Coughing: Heartworms, Kennel cough, Heart disease or pneumonia.
- Passing Blood in Urine: Internal injury, Kidney disease or Urinary tract infection.
- Bad Breath/Bleeding Gums: Periodontal disease.
- Constipation/Problems defecating: Change of diet, intestinal blockage.
- High Temperature (over 102): Viral or bacterial infection

- Problems Urinating: Kidney stones or Kidney Disease.
- Blood or Worms in feces: Bowel infection, Worms or other parasites.
