common dog disease

Dog DiseasesDogs can fall foul of diseases just like humans. Depending on the species and individual dog, he or she may be more or less prone to different forms of canine diseases. This Dogs.co.uk guide covers the most common dog diseases, how to spot them and how to treat them.

How can I tell when my dog is feeling sick?
Dogs who are sick are generally obvious. One easy way to spot if your dog is sick at all is to watch him or her eat and exercise. A sick dog will be listless or show very reluctant enthusiasm. If your dog eats without any lustre, it is possible that he or she has become ill. Other symptoms of sickness include pale gums and a whiter than usual tongue, duller than standard eyes, and a dry coat. Sick dogs also often suffer from a fever.

How can I check the temperature and pulse of my dog?
The standard method for measuring a dog’s temperature is a rectal thermometer. The normal body temperature of a dog is 101.5 degrees Fahrenheit. You can check how fast your dog’s heart is beating by pressing your finger firmly against the joint between the hindquarters of the dog, on the underside. The average pulse rate of a healthy dog is between 75 and 100 beats per minute.
