How is a Husky’s resistance?
Huskies have fairly strong resistance; they are not picky, have good stamina and high energy, so they rarely get sick. But in a new environment they may be unsettled and show loss of appetite, vomiting or diarrhea; give probiotics to regulate the gut.
What happens after a kitten is dewormed?
A dewormed kitten usually has no reaction, but irritating medicine may cause mild diarrhea, vomiting, poor appetite or lethargy. Many internal parasites can also show as soft stool with worms, which is normal; give probiotics.
My dog vomited once in the morning and then ate nothing, only drank water and was inactive, lying down for two days. I also hit it a few days ago and the next day its front left leg went lame. Is it a fracture? It does not cry when I touch the leg.
First find the cause of the vomiting. A single vomit with no other gut symptoms may not be digestive disease; check whether hitting it caused pain.
A two-month-old kitten was given yogurt yesterday, then today refuses kibble, foams at the mouth and has bad breath.
Yogurt is generally not recommended for cats and easily irritates a weak kitten's gut; too much cold yogurt can cause enteritis. The bad breath may also be from teething or stomatitis.
Foaming at the mouth, running around, barking, convulsing. How do I save it?
These symptoms suggest poisoning. Identify the substance and treat promptly; do not medicate blindly.
What happens if a dog eats eggs?
Eggs supply protein and lecithin, and moderate feeding promotes coat growth and makes the fur softer. But too many eggs at once cause bloating, abdominal pain and vomiting from indigestion.
I have a roughly 5-month-old large black puppy that eats anything. Three days ago it came home trembling; I thought it was cold. It stopped eating and only drank water. Today it returned weak and could barely walk, with cold paws and a stiff body. My relative thinks it ate rat poison and forced salt water down its throat. Its tongue looked pale and it drooled. Will it survive the night? What illness is this?
If the puppy is normally free-roaming, the cause could be poisoning, cold weather, low blood sugar, pain or an infectious disease. Check the temperature and move it indoors to keep warm, and observe its diet, temperature, nose, stool, energy and vomiting to narrow down the cause and treat accordingly.
My Malinois accidentally ate a whole bar of soap. What should I do?
Take the dog to the hospital promptly to avoid delay, and watch for discomfort such as vomiting, loss of appetite, drowsiness, diarrhea or lack of stool. Gastroenteritis symptoms last about a week and need plenty of water or fluids plus mucosal protectors, antiemetics and antidiarrheals.
What happens if a dog eats stomach medicine?
A dog eating human stomach medicine may worsen gastric irritation, causing more diarrhea and vomiting, and ingredients it cannot metabolize can even cause poisoning. When a dog has stomach problems, first stop feeding it.
What happens if a dog eats toothpaste?
Pet-specific toothpaste is usually harmless because it is edible. A small amount of human toothpaste is also fine; just give the dog some probiotics and water and observe.
