Dog Health Symptoms
When you get to know
different dog health
symptoms, both normal
and abnormal, you can
be able to identify
whether your dog is in a
good health or not. After
all, it is you who knows
his dog most. Since you
see him playing around
you almost all the day,
you know how much he
can consume, you know
how much he can
exercise and you know
how long he naps, so who knows your dog better than you?
Well, there are few standard dog health symptoms which, if deviated, imply that the dog is
not in a normal condition. This will provide you an early signs that your dog is going to be
sick. So, practically there are two different types of dog health symptoms – one defines
whether the dog is in a good shape and the other one says that it is not.

Good Symptoms
If your dog is healthy, it will be
reflected from his bright and
clear eyes. A glossy full coat
also represents a good health.
The dog must have standard
weight and size according to
particular breed standard. When
the dog is in good shape, he will
have a good appetite and show
good energy and enthusiasm.
The dog will act in a well-
mannered fashion with positive
attitude and good personality.
Bad Symptoms
When your dog is not
healthy, either
psychologically or
physically or both, you can
see some typical dog health
symptoms. The first
symptom may include a
significant drop in food and
water consumption, which
may be followed by an
abrupt increase in water
consumption. In addition,
the dog may show symptoms
like lack of enthusiasm and
energy, loss of interest,
weight loss, skin rash,
cloudy eyes, negative
attitude and personality,
runny noses, and so on.
When the complication progresses the dog may reveal critical health symptoms like difficulty
in urination, seizures, constipation, complete withdrawal and so on. In addition, a dramatic
weight loss problem is also common at this phase.

Dog Health Problems
If you are truly passionate about
your dog, you must agree with
the fact that your dog also
deserves the same attention with
his health problems as any of
your family members does. Dog
health problems can be as similar
as your own health problems
such as diabetes, fever, cancer,
arthritis and different
psychological problems like
depression, frustration, anxiety
and so on. In addition, they may
also experience heartworm and
kennel cough as an integral part
of the typical dog health problems.
With the advancement of
medical science, especially
in the area of veterinary
treatment, there are various
useful options that can
effectively deal with dog
health problems. In some
cases, a combination of
treatments may offer the
actually benefit while
dealing with dog health
problems instead of any
individual treatment.
Complete Dog Health Guide
It is very essential to take your dog to the vet if you suspect that he is suffering from any sort
of dog health problems. The dogs can not express their pain in human words, so it is
necessary to keep your eye open
whether your beloved dog is
going through any health
hazards. The common dog
health problems can be listed as
follows: arthritis, bad breath,
bloat, constipation, deafness,
diarrhea, and distemper, ear
infection, eye problems, heart
disease, dysplasia, kidney
problems, and so on.
Hence the initial health care is
absolutely dependent on
personal observation.
Whenever you find your dog
behaving in some unusual way
or having high temperature, or
his energy level is dramatically
declined, you should not be late
discussing it with your vet. Your vet may take a whole host of treatment options including
vaccination, medication, or surgical intervention depending on the prognosis and severity of
the problem. Always remember that prevention is better than cure, so do not be late in taking
proper action as soon as you notice any symptoms of dog health problems.
Dog Health Bleeding
Complete Dog Health Guide
It’s a truly wonderful
feeling to see your
dog is running around
you with his full
health and
enthusiasm. When he
licks your hand and
shows his love and
gratitude for you, it
seems like a heavenly
moment and can be a
source of lifetime joy.
But what if your dog
is crawling around
you, while showing a
minimum or no
enthusiasm at all?
And you suddenly
discover that he is bleeding! As a dog owner, quite obviously this may not be a good time for
you at all. Let us discover what can cause bleeding to your dog and how to deal with it.
Rectal Bleeding
If you have identified that your
dog has been bleeding with his
loose stool, it may be quite
possible that he is having
problems in his anal glands.
An abscess or infection in the
anal gland may cause the
problem. When you find your
dog bleeding from his anal,
you need to take him to the vet.
The vet usually suggests you to
take a stool sample of your
dog.
Chest Bleeding
This condition is known as Hemothorax. If your dog suffers from Hemothorax, it means that
blood is clotted within the chest. If the condition occurs, the dog shows few evident
symptoms such as difficulty in breathing, increasing degree of breathlessness, fatigue,

collapse and whitish
mucus membranes. If
you find your dog taking
short, rapid and shallow
breaths, it is the high
time to consult your vet.
Bleeding due to Injury
The dog may start
bleeding due to injury. If
this is so, remember that
the dog not only
experience physical
pain, but also he is
psychologically
frightened. So you need to provide the dog enough condolence and confidence. They may act
frantically and if you are not able to control him, it may lead to further injury for the dog. In
case of minor bleeding, you can use pressure bandages for your dogs, however, for serious
injury, you must not be late in admitting the dog to the hospital.
Dog Health Licking
Licking is a natural activity of
a dog. Possibly there is no dog
that does not link at one time
or another. Not all breeds lick
in the same fashion. However,
if it becomes excessive and
continual, it may turn out to
be a serious issue of concern.
It may be possible that a dog
licks out of his fear or having
a poor health condition.

Biological Condition for
Licking
Dog health licking can
sometimes be a biological
incidence. For example, a
female dog licks her
babies to keep their free
from any dirt. When the
dog babies are born,
mother licks them
passionately in order to
clean the films and fluids
out of their body. Dog
health licking also facilitates appropriate breathing in case of newborns.
Female mother also aids licking her newborn babies to help them in the process of urination.
Sometimes babies lick their mother’s lips to make her vomit, so that they can eat what she
vomits. However, this is not a common case, if the owner puts enough attention to take care
of the babies.
Psychological Condition for Licking
When a dog is subject to experience stress, he or
she starts licking excessively. Sometimes, a
stressed out dog can burn their restlessness by
chewing their legs or paws.
Possible Consequences of Excessive Licking
In few cases, excessive licking may result in other
complications such as dermatitis. At the worst
extent, the dog may not limit his action of licking
to his body itself, but to anything that he can find
such as wall, floor and so on. This increases the
chances of getting infection or allergies as well.
Some dogs may start eating fluff off the floor in order to ventilate his stress or displeasure. If
you ever find your dog chewing hair and trying to get it gulped down, it may need medical
attention. While some people suggest a treatment as the answer of the problem, some others
suggest that behavioral training may well solve the issue. In fact, a combination of these two
offer maximum benefit.
