Signs of a Healthy Dog

It’s a universal truth that before rectifying any error or resolving any problem we need to diagnose or identify it first. To identify it we have to search the symptoms that point out to the possible causes and then go for optional strategies available to remove the very cause and get permanent solution. That’s what usually doctors do; firstly they examine the patient and try to diagnose the problem or deficiency in him. After diagnosing the problem they try to cure it by prescribing most effective remedy suited to the chemistry of patient.

In the same way here we would know how healthy our dog is and later on in other posts we would learn how to maintain our dog’s health.

To know about our dog’s health we need to examine following things in them:
Firstly, we need to examine its Head. Look whether the nose is cool and damp, gums are bright and pink, the teeth are white, clean and straight. Be sure that upper and lower teeth are not overshot or upper shot, Eyes are bright, clear, and can look straight ahead. Don’t forget to check for redness or inflammation of the third eyelid, or eyelids that roll in or outward. The ear canals should be clean and odour-free.

Secondly to know how healthy our dog is we need to examine his body.and his stomach. It should not be swollen or tight because it signifies poor diet or worm possibly the worm infestation. Heart beat should be strong and regular. The genitals should be clean and free from irritation, because any irritation in them could indicate worms, diarrhoea, or a digestive disorder. Both testicles should be present in the male. The coat should be feathery, clean, and free of mats. The proper working of these parts leads to a healthy body.

Third and the most important parts which are very important for a healthy dog are definitely the bones and muscles. Check if these are sound and well built in structure, because structure of the dog means his beauty for example gray hounds are famous for their slim structure which makes them the fastest among dogs. Look at the legs whether they are straight or not? Are the toes well arched? Can they run fast without any problem in their style of running?

Thus we have to minutely see all three main parts of the body of a dog namely; head, trunk and limbs. Sometimes it happens that people do not in fact know the signs of their dogs being healthy and so they unnecessarily bother about their puppies. Hence it is recommended to collect relevant information about dog’s health as soon as you happen to buy one of your choices.
