QuestionMy dog has been sleeping a lot and won't eat. He feels hot and is sluggish. He is eight years old. He is normally quite active. I got him from the shelter two months ago. I took him to the vet yesterday and they said he was normal. I gave him a bath, maybe he caught a cold?
Thank you
AnswerHi Vicki,
Giving your dog a bath wouldn't give him a cold. Does he eat? A sure sign of a sick dog is one that won't eat. If it continues, take him to a different vet. Acting sluggish and running a temp is not normal if he is otherwise active. Give him a day or so, and if he continues to act like this..I would take him in for another opinion, especially if he isn't eating. Good luck!
God Bless,
Becky
