MEDICAL CARE
Every now and then, just like us, our furry friends can feel under the weather. Since our pets cannot speak for themselves, pet owners should be sensitive to their pet's behavior. No one knows and understands your pet better than you. Conditions left unchecked can become serious health concerns. It is important to be able to identify signs and symptoms of your dogs health. Some things to look for are:
- Increase/Decrease in Appetite
- Increased Water Intake
- Decreased Activity
- Vomiting, Diarrhea, Bloody Stool
- Urination Increase/Decrease
- Coughing
- Lumps or Growths
- Listless Behavior
- Excessive Panting
- Heavy or Rapid Breathing at Rest
- Difficulty Breathing
- Hair Loss and/or Itchy Skin
- Inflamed Ears
- Stiffness, Lameness, Difficulty Rising
- Bad Breath or Drooling
- Eye Redness, Tearing, Discharge, Light
