What should I do if my dog won’t eat or drink and vomits yellow fluid?
Not eating, not drinking, and yellow vomit may be gastroenteritis or distemper/parvovirus. Unvaccinated dogs should be tested; contagious cases need prompt vet care. For gastroenteritis, use dog-specific anti-emetics and probiotics.
My dog just turned two months old; because of a tick bite it was shaved and given a medicated bath, then slept with the AC on. For three days it barely ate, only goat milk, but energy and stools were normal. On day five it ate, but in the afternoon spiked to 40.7C, and shots and medicine did not bring the fever down; it stayed 39.5-40. The dog is unvaccinated, no distemper, weight 0.95kg.
Persistent high fever needs prompt vet care; it may signal bacterial pneumonia, gut infection, blood parasites, distemper, or parvovirus. Non-viral cases are easier to treat. Fever is usually lowered by injection plus physical cooling while the vet finds the cause.
What does it mean when a dog passes wine-red, paste-like stool?
Bloody, paste-like stool with good energy likely indicates hemorrhagic enteritis, not parvovirus. Causes include irritating food, viral, bacterial, or parasitic infection. Timely veterinary examination is advised to prevent worsening.
My dog vomited all yesterday, not today, but has a high temperature, eats nothing, and sleeps most of the day.
These signs most likely indicate illness rather than pregnancy, especially with fever and refusal to eat. An unspayed female's fever may signal pyometra; distemper, parvovirus, pancreatitis, or acute gastroenteritis are other possibilities. Prompt veterinary examination is urged to avoid a fatal delay.
My dog has been lethargic and has no appetite for the past two weeks, vomits white foam, and anti-vomiting medicine didn’t help; I also found a hard lump on one nipple and two or three small hard lumps next to another nipple.
Vomiting foam and loss of appetite can signal serious illness such as gastroenteritis, pancreatitis, or viral infection, not just a minor upset. Combined with nipple lumps, mammary tumor or breast cancer cannot be ruled out and needs veterinary assessment. Do not medicate at home; seek professional diagnosis and treatment.
What happens if a Husky has diarrhea?
Husky diarrhea may be from parasites, acute gastroenteritis, parvo, etc. Untreated → dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, gut lining damage, bloody stool, death. Take to a vet promptly for cause-specific treatment. Owners should watch diet/health and deworm regularly.
Several village dogs died recently (2–3 years old); my dog (under 1) played with them and now won’t eat, got thin, can’t walk steadily. First-time owner, don’t want to lose him—he’s my grandma’s best companion.
Symptoms (poor appetite, weight loss, lethargy) suggest serious disease; hard to pinpoint. Unvaccinated + contact with dead dogs → likely infectious (distemper, parvo, corona), usually fatal. Take to a vet urgently for virus tests first, then treat. No hospital nearby → nearest vet station, experienced vet for 3 days of meds.
My dog had a little blood in its stool last time—what could it be?
Per the image, dark red loose stool; if unvaccinated/undewormed, likely parvo or parasites. Possibly ate hard/indigestible food, intestinal scrape, or hemorrhagic gastroenteritis. See a vet for targeted treatment. Parvo signs: diarrhea, vomiting, foul coffee/tomato-colored stool, low appetite, lethargy, fever—low cure rate without targeted meds. If can't go to hospital, give anti-inflammatory, gut mucosa repair, probiotics; mild bleeding may recover.
My Bichon started having bloody, jelly-like stool but still has great appetite and energy—what should I do?
Bloody, jelly-like stool may be acute gastroenteritis, parasites, or viral infection. Normal spirits suggest early stage—see a vet promptly. Gastroenteritis needs anti-inflammatory and probiotics; parasites (often coccidia) need sulfa drugs; viruses (parvo/corona) need antivirals like interferon and serum.
