How to Tell If Your Dog Needs Emergency Care?

Dogs can’t tell us when they don’t feel good or when something is wrong. They’re also quite good at carrying on as if everything’s ok. Sure, Fido might appear sluggish or keep to himself now and then, but even these types of behaviors may be signs that he needs emergency care.


Since you are your dog’s only hope of getting care when he needs it, knowing what signs to watch for can help you get him the treatment he needs as soon as possible. Besides more obvious injuries, such as broken bones and profuse bleeding, here are a few signs to keep an eye out for:


  • Noticeable decline in breathing rate
  • Seizure
  • Inability to urinateL
  • Loss of balance
  • Severe lethargy
  • High fever (over 104 degrees Fahrenheit)
  • Continuous vomiting or diarrhea


As a general rule, if your dog starts exhibiting unusual behaviors, it’s best to take him in to see the vet just to be on the safe side. If you want more about dog emergency care or need to know where to take Fido in case of emergency, feel free to reach out to your veterinary clinic Bowmanville ON.
