Parents who have kept dogs for a long time may have this experience. The dog was still alive and kicking a few days ago, but suddenly it died and it was too late to send it to the hospital. Therefore, early detection of disease is very important to save your dog’s life. Many diseases that seriously threaten the life and health of dogs can be cured in the early stages, but when they develop into advanced stages, no matter how skilled doctors are, they are powerless to cure them. Dogs can't talk and can't tell you why they're uncomfortable; therefore, detecting your dog's disease as early as possible has become a must for a successful parent.

1. Fever is a common disease symptom. It is also a precursor to many life-threatening diseases, so it should not be taken lightly. If your dog is tired and too lazy to exercise, and his nose is dry, he may have a fever. At this time you should take your dog's temperature immediately. The normal body temperature of dogs is slightly higher than that of humans, about 38.5 degrees, and the body temperature of puppies is higher. It should be noted that the dog’s body temperature will be slightly higher than normal after intense exercise and in the afternoon when the weather is hot. If the dog's body temperature exceeds 40 degrees, then it has a fever and needs to be sent to the hospital immediately.

2. Dogs will shiver when they feel cold. Some dogs will shiver after taking a bath without drying their fur. This is normal. However, if the dog keeps shivering when it is not cold, it should attract the attention of the parents. The cause of morbid trembling is problems with the dog's nervous system, such as encephalitis, canine distemper and other diseases. Because the dog's nerves are damaged by viruses, the dog trembles. If it is determined that the dog is shaking abnormally, the parents should send the dog to the hospital for treatment.

3. The dog’s food intake is the most obvious sign of whether the dog is healthy. A normal dog has a good appetite. If its appetite decreases and the food is not abnormal, it may be a sign of disease. Many diseases can cause dogs to lose their appetite or even lose their appetite, such as gastrointestinal diseases, acute infectious diseases of other systems, etc. Parents need to distinguish whether the dog has a reduced appetite or whether the dog has an appetite but does not eat. Some dogs have scratches on their mouths or throats and feel pain when eating and swallowing, so they refuse to eat. Normal adult dogs only need to be fed one meal a day. Parents should be well aware of their dog’s normal food intake, and give them as much as their dog eats each time they feed. Don’t give too much. The remaining dog food will deteriorate over time, which will reduce the dog’s appetite and also Endangering the dog's health.

4. Dogs will breathe at a very high frequency after hot weather and strenuous exercise. This kind of breathing is shallow and fast, which is a normal reaction of dogs. Dogs with difficulty breathing will increase their respiratory rate and increase their breathing depth when the weather is normal and they are not engaging in strenuous exercise. Such dogs may be suffering from respiratory diseases, such as tracheitis, bronchitis, pneumothorax, etc., and should be sent to the vet Hospital treatment.

5. There are many reasons for dog constipation. One of the important reasons is feeding too many hard bones, especially the digestive function.Decline in older dogs.

Therefore, if your dog becomes constipated, you must adjust your dog’s diet in time.

6. Most dogs are gluttonous. If they eat too much and cannot digest it, it will cause diarrhea. Such dogs need to fast for a day, but diarrhea caused by parasites or other infectious diseases is not that simple. If blood in the stool occurs, parents should pay enough attention to prevent viral diseases.

7. Dogs have very developed vomiting nerves, which is a function of dogs’ self-protection. When dogs eat foreign objects, they will actively vomit it out. Some dogs are not used to riding in cars and suffer from motion sickness and vomiting. This is a normal phenomenon and parents do not need to worry too much. If your dog vomits severely, not only food but also water, it may be suffering from gastritis and needs to be sent to the hospital
