Having a sick dog is never a fun time.
Your pet is miserable and can't explain what is wrong.
You are worried about his well being and don't know how to comfort him.
The first thing you need to do is take your dog to the vet.
Your vet will be able to determine what is causing your dog to be sick and will recommend a course of action to make him better.
He may suggest a change of diet or prescribe some medication for him.
If your vet suggests a change in diet, be sure to follow his recommendations.
Some breeds of dogs need to eat certain foods in order to remain healthy.
Smaller breeds have weaker stomachs and cannot handle human foods as larger breeds can.
If your doctor wants your pet to take medication, you do not have to get it from the vet.
Many sites offer the same Pet Meds prescribed by your vet but at a much lower cost.
Ordering medications online can save you time and money in the future if your dog has a recurring condition.
Whether your dog has a minor or major illness, the best thing you can do after taking him to the vet is to make him comfortable.
Let him sleep where he wants and try not to raise your voice to him while he is still not feeling well.
Think of the way you would treat your child- odds are you would baby him and let him do as he pleases as long as he is sick.
