When to Contact a Veterinarian

Contact your veterinarian when a sign is new, worsening, recurring, painful, affecting appetite or energy, connected with medication or supplement changes, or making daily life harder for your dog.

Seek urgent veterinary care for trouble breathing, collapse, repeated vomiting or diarrhea, severe pain, bloating, inability to urinate or defecate, seizures, suspected toxin exposure, or sudden major behavior or mobility changes.
