There are a number of pup-only illnesses that can cause your pooch to feel and appear under the weather, from distemper to parvovirus.
Dogs know there’s one way to get your attention fast - whimpering and whining.
Sprains, broken bones, fractures, and even joint trauma will all cause your dog to limp.
Has your pooch suddenly started to stumble and fall over mid-run? They could be experiencing a stroke or a brain tumour/inflammation.
The most likely cause of runny bowel syndrome? Your pooch ate something that upset his or her stomach.
Like humans, dogs can be prone to appetite swings. One day they seem to be starving, another not so much.
If it happens frequently, however, intestinal parasites, kidney issues, or a variety of infections or diseases could be to blame.
It’s also one of the very first signs that your pooch could be suffering from heart disease, respiratory issues, or an infectious illness.
You may have a dog that’s trying to tell you they’re in pain or agitated by something.
It’s natural for a pooch to pant a lot, especially if they’re superheated or have completed some sort of exercise.
