Career Dog Training
Everyone who owns or has owned a dog has had their dog
show signs of illness. Many vets will tell you that it would be
so much easier to diagnose
symptoms of sick dog if they
could just talk. Being that is not the case one has to carefully
observe outward
symptoms of dog diseases in order to make
a proper diagnosis. If you feel that your dog is in serious
stress including breathing problems, collapse and loss of
consciousness, had direct contact with poisonous snakes,
plants or insects, ingested poison like antifreeze or involved
with serious trauma you need to contact your vet immediately
for consultation and assistance.

All dogs will at some time in their lifetime exhibit some
symptoms of sick dog. If you have had your dog properly
vaccinated including yearly or bi annual rabies vaccinations
you vet will normally do a good complete exam to assure
there are no obvious
symptoms of dog diseases. Most of the
time this will include examining a stool sample and blood
work. This is the time to bring up any concerns or observed
problems that you have about your dog’s health. It is wise to
write down any observations that you have made prior to the
exam. Even the slightest
symptoms of sick dog may be
important. If you follow these procedures the chances of your
dog having a serious problem will be greatly diminished.
However even a properly cared for canine can develop
serious
symptoms of sick dog.

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
  • Increase Drinking and Urination: Diabetes, Kidney
    Disease or Liver Disease.
  • Problems Urinating: Kidney stones or Kidney Disease.
  • Blood or Worms in feces: Bowel infection, Worms or
    other parasites.
  • Vomiting/ ingesting grass or other vegetation: Worms,
    Poison or gastrointestinal problems.

It should be understood that most pets will show one or more
symptoms of sick dog at the same time. Make sure you keep
notes of the
symptoms of dog diseases that you have
observed including the time of each incident. All will assist
your vet in making a proper diagnosis of your dog’s illness.
Many times these symptoms will pass without further
complications. If symptoms persist for more than 24 hours or
you dog shows signs of obvious stress then it is time to act.
Any time you feel that you have a valid concern you should
call your vet for a consultation or appointment. Dogs deserve
that same amount of respect and health care as any other
member of your household.
