What is a ‘week dog’?
A 'week dog' refers to a dog that looks energetic at the time of purchase but becomes ill or dies about a week later. Most of these dogs are bought from roadside vendors or unlicensed kennels. Most 'week dogs' have infectious diseases such as distemper, and a few carry zoonotic bacteria - not only do they themselves get sick and die, they can also transmit infection to the owner and cause the owner to become ill. Therefore, if you want to buy a pet dog, it is best to purchase from a reputable pet store.

My dog suddenly stopped eating, is listless, and the whites of its eyes are a bit red. There is no veterinary hospital nearby—is there any medication I can give?

If over 39.5°C it is a fever—cool with diluted alcohol on paw pads, belly and ears. If unvaccinated it may be distemper; test with a strip and use monoclonal antibody, interferon and serum plus amoxicillin-clavulanate and nerve-support vitamins.
