Answer


Hi Diane,

I think you're correct, any of those diseases are a possibility.

Now it's time to have your dog examined by your veterinarian to find out what the problem is, and start treatment. Please don't delay in getting seeing the vet, as that can complicate treatment, which can cause the treatment to be more expensive.

Best of luck,

Patti
