Symptoms and Management of Asthma in Dogs
Dog asthma ranges from a dry cough and gasping to rapid breathing, fever, and a fast heartbeat; a purple tongue means rush to a vet. It can't be cured, only controlled with vet-prescribed medication and a daily yeast tablet, while avoiding smoke, perfumes, and hard exercise. Prevent it with a thinner summer coat, airy clean bedding, regular bathing, a low-salt diet with some pork (vitamin B), and avoiding pollen-heavy walks.
How long after parvovirus infection does a dog show symptoms?
A dog usually shows symptoms 1-2 weeks after parvovirus infection. The virus has a 3-14 day incubation with no signs and cannot be tested then. Early signs are vomiting, diarrhea, fever, and appetite loss; take it to a vet promptly, since earlier treatment means a better cure chance.
My dog threw up a little food after dinner a week ago; I thought he had eaten too much and ignored it. Two hours later he suddenly vomited bright red, very watery blood. We rushed to the hospital for an X-ray, which ruled out a foreign object. CP L 223.75, amylase 471, lipase 71, creatinine 90.2, BUN 10.66, canine C-reactive protein 12.5. The vet said mild pancreatitis and gave an injection. On the third day an abdominal ultrasound showed an enlarged pancreas; CP L 88.48, amylase 456, lipase 62, creatinine 52.5, BUN 484, canine C-reactive protein 19.2. At first the dog had slight abdominal pain, the belly felt a bit hard but pressing caused no pain. No arched-back posture, appetite very good, stools normal, even a bit dry. No fever, very energetic. Now after stopping injections we feed small meals and a prescription diet, but every morning on an empty stomach he vomits thin brownish-yellow water, then is normal, with very good appetite and energy and normal stools. Do I need more tests?
Canine pancreatitis occurs when digestive enzymes secreted by the pancreas digest the pancreas itself and nearby organs due to inflammation, causing lesions. It has three types: acute, chronic, and relapsing. Its symptoms resemble acute gastroenteritis with vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. It is a complex, life-threatening disease; chronic pancreatitis is lifelong, so diet control and regular rechecks of pancreatitis markers are essential.
How long after a dog catches distemper does it show symptoms?
The incubation is 3 to 10 days, varying by source and resistance. Early signs are upper respiratory with fever, low appetite, lethargy, eye and nose discharge; later pneumonia, enteritis, and nerve signs like drooling and seizures. Vaccinate regularly.
How long until a dog shows symptoms of toxoplasmosis?
Symptom timing after toxoplasmosis is not fixed; many dogs show no clear signs (silent infection). Weak dogs later show sleepiness, lethargy, diarrhea, low appetite, fever, sometimes neurological signs. Pregnant dogs may abort or deliver early. It is zoonotic — isolate and see a vet at once.
Slight Fever, Bloodwork Shows Inflammation, X-ray Normal, Lethargic—What Should I Do Next?
Poor spirits combined with internal inflammation cannot pinpoint a single cause, since most diseases can lead to inflammation in dogs. Inflammation in dogs may present with several symptoms: decreased or lost appetite and low energy; vomiting and diarrhea; respiratory infections such as coughing, sneezing, and runny nose; and yellow or bloody urine with increased or decreased volume.
My cat has been vomiting for a while and barely eats these past two days; just vomiting with no other symptoms.
Cat vomiting has many causes; mild cases need fasting, probiotics, and medication, while persistent vomiting with other signs suggests panleukopenia or organ disease needing a vet.
How long after feline panleukopenia (distemper) infection do symptoms appear?
Infected cats usually show signs in 3-10 days; distemper hits unvaccinated cats. Symptoms: persistent fever, vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration and low white cells. Some resistant cats show nothing. Treat fast, as the disease progresses quickly and can kill.
My dog had a fever during a C-section delivery. A month later she had a little brown, foul-smelling discharge that stopped after 3 days of medication, and now there is occasional white discharge from her rear. What does this mean?
Based on the description, this may be an early sign of pyometra, though lingering postpartum discharge is also possible. Pyometra is classified as open or closed; open pyometra shows obvious discharge while closed pyometra is harder to detect early.
