    The symptoms of fever in dogs are:

    1. Drowsiness. Animals that are physically active in fighting off infection will get tired. All of their energy reserves are allocated to the immune system. Their bodies are expending energy and resources to fight, so they often don't want to do anything, become lethargic, and also find a shady place to rest.

    If you think your dog is drowsy, especially if it has any specific symptoms of illness, such as vomiting, diarrhea, coughing, sneezing, or runny nose, it may be a fever and needs to see a veterinarian.

    2. Anorexia. Anorexia, some people think that it refers to a human disease, anorexia nervosa, but in fact "anorexia" is a medical term that refers to patients who do not eat for various reasons, which is not the same as anorexia. Fever, of course, produces a feeling of discomfort and a feeling of appetite suppression.

    But it's not normal for a dog to go completely without food for several days. Sometimes, an uneaten meal is not a cause for concern, but dogs that have not been interested in eating for a long time should see a veterinarian.

    Note:A dog that feels "hot" to the touch is not necessarily a fever.

    Many owners will touch their dog's body and think that the dog feels feverish because it feels a little higher than their own body temperature. However, the body temperature of dogs is higher than that of humans, about 38 C, so it is often mistaken for a fever by the owner, but in fact this is the normal body temperature of dogs.

    The body temperature of a sick dog can be measured with a body thermometer used in the rectum. The thermometer should only be inserted into the rectum up to the end of the silver ball. When the body temperature is exceeded, the dog already has a high fever.

    It is several times more difficult to use a thermometer for a dog than for a child. It is recommended that the owner can touch the dog's ears and stomach more often to feel its normal body temperature. In this way, when the dog has a fever, it can detect the symptoms of fever at an early stage without relying on a thermometer.

    When a dog has a high fever, the most important thing is to rest before going to the hospital**, and if the dog has chills, it is necessary to keep it warm.

    The dog was uncomfortable, had no spirit, and naturally did not greatly reduce the desire for food, at most he licked a few bites indifferently, and then lay down with a melancholy face.

    3. Look at the tip of the nose.

    Once the dog's body is unwell, the warning of the nose will come quickly, dry and hot, which is definitely a manifestation of discomfort, but it is not a completely correct way to judge it alone, although the dog's nose may become hot and dry when the dog has a fever, but because there are many mucus glands on the dog's nose, it is still possible to secrete mucus normally to keep the nose moist.

    4. Look at other symptoms.

    Many owners are not very good at judging the temperature of the dog, but in fact, as long as you look closely, you will find that in addition to the rise in temperature, there are other symptoms, such as the dog's breathing will become more rapid, and the belly and the white of the eyes will be redder than usual.
