Dog Gone Sick with the Flu?

Dog Gone Sick with the Flu?

Canine Diarrhea is a “Sick Dog  Symptom”.

Since canine diarrhea can cause  potentially deadly problems like dehydration, you should IMMEDIATELY get your pet pooch over to Hillchester Animal.  Diarrhea is a symptom.  Diarrhea is not a disease.   The causes of diarrhea can include canine flu, dog food poisoning, canine intestinal blockage, tapeworms, or a number of other causes. The sooner a veterinarian corrects theses causes of your dog’s diarrhea, the less your dog suffers and the less expensive the Veterinary treatments for diarrhea are.

For the price of diarrhea treatments  from Hillchester Animal Hospital, please submit the form to the right (including age, species, breed, and weight).

Can’t I just wait and see if my dog gets well?

By playing Animal Doctor, you are gambling with your pet’s health . Many mild cases of diarrhea can be resolved quickly with simple treatments.  Even diarrhea caused by mild illnesses may become fatal if treatment is not begun early enough to prevent severe fluid and nutrient losses.

Very serious “sick dog symptoms”.

If you observe vomiting and  bloody diarrhea, quick reading and schedule an appointment NOW for today or tomorrow during normal doctors’ hours.   (If you wait until 2 AM and go to a Veterinary  Emergency Room, your Veterinary Treatment costs skyrocket.)    Your dog may have eaten junk from the trash bin, spoiled food from the garbage can,  turkey bones,  roadkill, bird droppings,  raw chicken bones, a sock, dead birds, or a lot of chocolate. You can’t guess what your Dog Gone Best Friend Forever just ate or just caught. We can’t guess either and perform a series of tests that may include performing canine tapeworms tests,  pet ultrasounds , X  rays, or  blood tests for the N3H8 canine Flu.

However, even diarrhea caused by mild illnesses may become fatal if treatment is not begun early enough to prevent severe fluid and nutrient losses.
