Please visit a vet clinic or scedule vet visit as post bite rabies vaccination has to be done. The wound must have got infected and would need to be cleaned and proper check up needs to be done to see the extent of injury. Treatment can be given accordingly after check up.

But my dog was being unable to keep in food, thus he was given saline.

He's still unable to keep down food, water, or medicines. He's constantly vomiting, even after having Zofer through saline.

He is eating. But he's being unable to keep it down. He's vomiting everything out

Then I think better take him to the vet as he might still need saline. Intravenous antibiotics might be needed as orally he is not able to keep it in.

He is getting saline twice a day ma'am. 500 ml each time.

Dr. Sharmila Rai
Okay then you have a talk with the vet you have visited about the antibiotic, tell them as he is not able to keep the food in.

We were unable to visit the vet ma'am. Our dog is too sick to travel and the government hospital we took him to is very far away.

So, we talked to a different doctor, should him all the prescriptions and told him about all the symptoms. He changed all the medicines and asked us to not give the anti rabies vaccine doses as of now. He asked us to get him a blood test done and show him the report.

The new doctor prescribed Dalacin- C 300 tablets and Sucrafil syrup and Rantac tablets. And asked us to discontinue giving him saline, and give him normal food, till we get his blood test done, and the doctor observes the report.

Dr. Sharmila Rai
I think its best to stick to that and do the blood test and show it to him.

Reedina Roy Chowdhury
So, we should stick to the new medicines ma'am? The doctor also asked to discontinue vaccinating him right now.
0
Dr. Sharmila Rai
Yes do the blood test as soon as possible

Yes ma'am. We are getting it done tomorrow.

THEO’S REAL STORY! 🫶 I have recently shared an adoption appeal for Theo my dog and received a lot of backlash. I would like to clarify a few things : 1. Theo is my family and he is a rescue. He was abandoned at a kennel and was in a very bad condition and suffered from ear infection and other issues. 2. My family has had Theo for 1 year now and we LOVE him truly and I can never think of abandoning him. 3. I have been approached by multiple people including unethical breeders but I will ensure that Theo doesn’t end up homeless or with the wrong people and that is why I put up a post here. 4. My family condition isn’t that great at the moment and im leaving for my higher studies. He is a dog that needs constant attention love and affection like every dog and I am sad that im not able to provide that to him and hence putting him up for adoption. When I rescued him I didn’t think of anything else except him getting better, he is not a SHOW OFF dog he is my best friend. Thanks for everyone reaching out!

My shih Tzu puppy is around 45 days, recently he started eating his own poop and now he has stopped but the poop colour has changed from brown to almost black. I’m little worried. What could be the cause of this? I am giving him Cerelac - wheat apple which the breeder had suggested with Woodward for digestion one spoon a day.

My pet's grooming was completed two days ago. Since then, he has been licking his private area. I've thoroughly examined his body, and there are no signs of ticks or fleas. However, I did notice some redness near his testicles, and he's been persistently licking it throughout the day. I would greatly appreciate any assistance or advice you can provide. Thank you in advance.
