Hello doctor, a small Teddy, 2 years old, 1.6 kg, since yesterday afternoon won’t eat—not even its favorite apple—and is unwilling to go out. Urination normal, stools slightly fewer than a few days ago, no diarrhea. What should I do?
Not eating divides into physiological and pathological anorexia. Physiological occurs in teething, estrus, pregnancy, pickiness, or hot weather; offer better food like chicken or canned food and wait. Pathological brings other signs like vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, arched back, unsteady walking. If worsening, see a vet.

Passing thin worms indicates internal parasite infection, likely roundworms or tapeworms, and the dog should be dewormed promptly. Tapeworms are white, flat, and strip-like in the digestive tract; roundworms are white, cylindrical, and earthworm-like, living in the small intestine.
What are the harms of breeding a male dog too early?
Breeding a male dog too early affects physical development and, due to poor semen quality, lowers the quality of the next generation. Let the dog fully mature—around 1.5 years old—before breeding; although they start estrus at 7 to 10 months, they are not yet developed.
