The signs of puppy’s health
I just skimmed over some of members’profiles that most of you are feeding pets, puppy in major. As my pleasure, sharing my experience with all of you on puppy care works. Wish all puppies are getting healthy. Be caring your puppies!
Puppies are generally resilient, happy and inquisitive, displaying the signs of health that are listed opposite. When they deviate from these, you should seek veterinary advice. You can do this initially, perhaps, by telephone. Most veterinary surgeons prefer to see revaccinated puppies by appointment, partly to allow time to discuss such matters as feeding and general care but also as not to endanger the puppy by putting it in close proximity to other animals which may carry disease.
Specific symptoms apart, the sign that a puppy is not well is often a change in its behavior, such as lack of interest in its food or in a favorite game or toy, excessive sleepiness, over-excitement or even irritability. To detect these early warning signs of trouble, you should know your puppy well from regular observation.
Isolated vomiting need be no cause for concern provided that there are no other symptoms of illness. An older puppy will often eat grass to induce vomiting if it is feeling uncomfortable.
