I have a doubt that my dog is having fever..he don't likes to eat as he used to do before.. and his body is also too hot..

Dr. Kaveri Giriraddi

Check the temperature once

Athira Suryanarayanan

We dnt have a thermometer in home..so any other ways?

Athira Suryanarayanan

His tongue is too hot while licking us

Athira Suryanarayanan

Even belly,paws are also hot

Dr. Kaveri Giriraddi

If the pet is not having any interest in food and low on activities then u can suspect pet is not so it's better to get the thermometer and check the temperature

Athira Suryanarayanan

Hi mam.he is having more than 105+ degree

Dr. Anukarna Singh

Normal temperature for dogs is 101 to 102 degree Fahrenheit, which is higher than normal temperature for a human which is 97-99 because of which a dog would generally feel warmer on touch. A pet who has fever would generally exhibit some symptoms like dullness, lethargy or lack of appetite. If there are any of these please get him examined by a doctor.

Athira Suryanarayanan

Yeah, he is having less appetite from yest..can u pls suggest any medicines/remedies if possible?as no one is there in home except my mother and she will not be able to take him to the vet

Dr. Kaveri Giriraddi

105 degree is too high better to get him checked by a vet The normal range of temperature for pets is 100-102

Dr. Kaveri Giriraddi

When the temperature is 105 it's better to get a physical examination by a vet then start the treatment And temperature can because of many reasons like bacterial or viral infection or bcz of protozoal infection So better to get him checked If it's not feasible to take him to vet u can book home visit appointment appointment by doctor

Dr. Anukarna Singh

If it is difficult for you to step out please request a doctor to come home and check your pet and also take a blood test if possible. The temperature is too high to be treated remotely.

Athira Suryanarayanan

Athira Suryanarayanan
