My dog is getting worse and the vet I feel is being unreasonable

Thanks for reaching out, and I'm sorry to hear that your dog isn't feeling well. It can be really distressing when our furry friends aren't at their best. Let's try to pinpoint what might be going on.



First, consider what "worse" means in your dog's case. Are there specific symptoms, like vomiting, diarrhea, changes in appetite, or lethargy? If your pet is showing any of these signs, it could indicate various issues ranging from mild gastrointestinal upsets to more serious conditions like pancreatitis or an infection.



For now, make sure your dog has plenty of water. If they're vomiting or have diarrhea, holding off on food for 12-24 hours can help rest their stomach. When reintroducing food, start with bland options like boiled chicken and rice. Keep a close eye on temperature changes, extreme lethargy, or blood in vomit or stool, as these are signs that immediate veterinary attention might be necessary.



I understand your frustration with the current vet. A second opinion can sometimes provide new insights. I'd recommend booking a video consult with one of our Dial A Vet professionals for a fresh perspective and to guide you safely through the next steps.
