Your dog is experiencing fatigue, which can be concerning when associated with a recent move and deworming treatment. This could arise from stress, side effects of medication, or other health issues.
- Relocation and changes in environment can cause stress in pets.
- Deworming treatments may have mild side effects like lethargy.
- If symptoms persist or worsen, consult a veterinarian.
It’s quite common for pets to feel temporarily tired or out of sorts after a significant change like moving homes. It can take some time for your dog to adjust to the new environment. Additionally, deworming treatments can occasionally lead to mild fatigue or discomfort. Monitor for improvement over the next few days. If your dog continues to act unusually tired or if other symptoms appear, a consultation with a veterinarian is recommended to ensure there are no underlying health concerns.
