Symptoms of Poor Health in Your Dog

Signs of ill health are the most relevant signs of the health well being in your dogs, For example if the dog has non-stop nasal discharge it indicates the presence of nasal congestion and if the discharge is thick most of the times, the dog could have pneumonia.
If the dog vomits one or two times every so often,this probably won’t be taken as a serious sign of ill health but if the dog continues this vomiting, then this is something significant to be looked into.

If the dog has continuous itching then one needs to check up the dog first by closer observation and examination of skin by separating the hair material notably in cases of long haired breeds.

You may also encounter a lot of ticks or lice on the skin, which may look plainly normal at a distance.




If the dog passes loose stool for one or two times, this need not be given more emphasis but if there is nonstop passing of loose stool then the dog is known to suffer from bowel disorders.


If the dog does not pass stool for two to three days, then the digestive upsets needs to be ruled out carefully.


Just patiently observe the dog’s walking movements and rule out any abnormal movements in the dog and if the dog is limping, the animal may have foot lesions.


Similarly, if the aged dog has slow walking and less feed intake along with,repeated vomiting then acute renal disorders like nephritis must be ruled out.
If there is whiteness in eyes, believe the corneal opacity that may show up in diseases like trypanasomosis.


When the dog becomes anemic, the mucous membrane of the eyes gets to be paler and in severe cases this may have wall white color.


If the dog bites chain and owners or others, look for behavior problems and rabies has to be ruled out.
