SYMPTOMS
OF ILLNESS
Even the best-cared-for dog may become ill or
injured, so it's a good idea to be aware of the
following symptoms of illness. Often a change in
behavior is the first indication. If your dog exhibits
these or other unusual symptoms, call your
veterinarian.
» Loss of appetite for more than one day.
» Diarrhea, constipation or difficulty urinating.
Take your dog to the veterinarian immediately
if he is unable to urinate or defecate, but
continues to try, or if there is blood in the urine
or stool. If your dog has diarrhea or blood in his
stool, take a stool sample with you when you
visit your veterinarian.
» Take your dog to the veterinarian
immediately if vomited material contains
blood or other unusual contents or if
vomiting persists.
» Fever is indicated by a dry, hot nose;
dull eyes; and a noticeable rise in body heat.
» Excessive panting or difficulty breathing.
Immediate care is required if there is noisy
respiration, blue tongue or gasping for breath.
» Constant scratching or biting may require
immediate care, if it is so severe that the dog
risks self-mutilation.
» Biting and other aggressive or unusual
behavior by a normally even-tempered dog.
» Listlessness or hiding.
» Bad mouth odor.
» Lump beneath the skin.
» Dull hair coat.
» Anything that is unusual for your dog.

HEARTWORMS
Transmitted by the bite of a mosquito, heartworms
are extremely dangerous and can even be fatal.
Unlike intestinal parasites, heartworms live in a
dog's heart or near the heart in major blood vessels.
Heartworms are difficult to cure, but easy to
prevent with medication from your veterinarian.
Heartworms are detected by a blood test; ask
your veterinarian about heartworm prevention
medication and annual screenings to help protect
your dog.
