How to Care for a Dog After Birth
After birth, keep the dam in a quiet, warm, clean den with nutritious food and water, wipe (don't bathe) her, and watch the pups. Wean at 21 days; lingering milk or a mammary lump may mean mastitis and needs a vet.
Cold Symptoms and Fever in Sphynx (Hairless) Cats
Sphynx (hairless) cats lack a fur coat and lose heat far more easily, so they catch colds more readily than other breeds. Mild cases with a low fever under 39.5°C can often recover at home with warmth and supportive care, but a cat that won't eat, grows weak, or fails to improve needs prompt veterinary attention.
What Causes Bladder and Urethral Stones in Dogs?
Bladder and urethral stones are common in middle-aged and senior dogs, especially males, and link to a single-protein diet, vitamin A deficiency, low water intake, urinary infection, and anatomy. Severe cases need surgery to remove the stones, while prevention focuses on balanced diet, fresh water, and regular exercise.
How to Recognize the Symptoms of a Cat Cold
A cat cold brings red, weeping eyes, nasal congestion, drooling, sneezing, and fever up to 40°C — signs that overlap with feline rhinotracheitis and distemper. Mild cases improve with warmth, good nutrition, and pet-formulated antibiotics, while severe or dehydration cases need a vet.
How Much Does Dog Skin Disease Treatment Cost?
The cost of treating a dog's skin condition ranges from a few dozen yuan for a tube of ointment to several thousand for full veterinary care, depending on the cause and severity. Always start with a cheap skin scraping at the clinic to identify the cause — fungal, bacterial, mite, flea, or allergic — before medicating, since guessing wrong makes things worse.
Distemper vs. a Common Cold in Dogs
A common cold brings lethargy, appetite loss, weepy eyes, cough, and runny nose, while canine distemper adds thick white or yellow eye/nose discharge and nervous signs like seizures. Distemper is fatal in over 50% of adults and up to 80% of puppies, so any unsure or worsening case must reach a vet immediately.
What to Do When Arthritis Makes a Dog Limp
Arthritis can strike any aging dog and, left untreated, leads to limping and lameness. Manage it with rest and warmth, vet-guided medication and joint supplements, and careful weight and exercise control — and watch for early signs like stiffness and swelling before lameness sets in.
Symptoms and Signs of Arthritis in Dogs
Arthritic dogs show stiffness getting up, swollen painful joints, less activity, limping, odd postures to ease pain, and mood changes like sleepiness or irritability. Because arthritis is hard to cure, prevention and early joint support beat treatment — ask a vet about prescription diets and joint protectants.
What to Do When Feline Herpesvirus (Cat Rhinotracheitis) Causes a High Fever
Fever from feline herpesvirus (cat rhinotracheitis) keeps returning unless the underlying infection is controlled. Bring the temperature down fast — vet injection or pet-formulated flunixin meglumine at home — then fight the virus with lysine, eye drops for keratitis, and strong nutritional support.
Symptoms and Treatment of Keratitis in Dogs
Keratitis is inflammation of the cornea — common in small long-haired breeds — and ranges from surface roughness to deep pain, pus, and even perforation. Treatment means flushing the eye, antibacterials to prevent iris adhesion, and atropine, with vet care for severe cases.
