Hello there! I'm glad you're reaching out with your concern. It sounds like something might be going on with your pet, and I'm here to help clarify things for you.
Without details about what you're seeing or experiencing with your pet, I'll cover some common issues pets face. If it's a skin problem, this could be due to allergies, parasites like fleas or mites, or even a skin infection. Breathing changes might indicate a respiratory issue or heart problem. If it's a sudden behavior or appetite change, stress, illness, or pain might be the cause.
For at-home care, ensure your pet is comfortable, has access to water, and avoid giving any over-the-counter medication meant for humans without professional advice. Monitor the situation closely for any signs of distress such as trouble breathing, continuous vomiting, diarrhea, or a sudden drop in energy levels. These could be signs of a more serious issue that should prompt an immediate vet visit.
Keep an eye out for worsening symptoms, and trust your instincts—if your pet seems unusually unwell, it's better to get expert advice sooner rather than later.
To get a precise diagnosis and tailored advice, I recommend booking a video consult with one of our vets on Dial A Vet. We can take a closer look and get your furry friend back to feeling their best!

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
