adlt Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 My lab is experiencing symptoms of heat stroke like Red eyes, Diarrhea and, Vomiting. Are these symptoms of heat stroke, as I think they should not occur in this weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boronia Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 If I were you I'd take your dog to the vet asap, it also sounds like your dog has eaten something that has badly disagreed with her/him There is sure to be an emergency vet open if you are (hopefully) in Darwin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. As others say:"go see a vet". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRG Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 I understand that dogs can exhibit heat stress symptoms at quite low temperatures. Do go and get advice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adlt Posted December 26, 2017 Author Share Posted December 26, 2017 Thank you all.. I am taking him to the vet here in Darwin... Let's see what the vet has to say... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PossumCorner Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Good decision adlt, be interested to know what your vet suggests. My guess on what you have said would be a bacterial infection, nothing that some antibiotics and pain relief, re-hydration, then bland food (rice, chicken even) won't fix. I hope it is nothing more serious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adlt Posted December 27, 2017 Author Share Posted December 27, 2017 Things are better today and he is recovering... According to the vet it was all due to my dog eating something wrong. Nothing to worry about now.. Thank you all for your advice.. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
