If your dog is suffering from an injury or another source of pain, there may be several signs that you can watch for. No one wants their dog to suffer from pain and there may be things that can be done to relieve it. If you need emergency pet care for a dog who is suffering, contact East Valley Emergency Pet Clinic in Diamond Bar.
Signs of Pet Pain
If your dog has changed its behavior recently, the reason could be that it is in pain. Pain can show itself in several different ways, so it's a good idea to know what to look for. If a dog has pain, it may start to limp or otherwise walk differently. It may lie down more often instead of being up and running around.
A dog with pain may also have problems going up and down stairs, jumping on furniture, and playing as it normally would. Dogs may drool excessively when they are in pain and let out a yelp when anyone touches them. They may also be scared or uncharacteristically aggressive when in pain. They may also vomit a lot from the intensity of the pain.
Suffering and Emergencies
If your pet is in a lot of pain, it may be having a medical emergency. Whether there is a wound or something internal that's going on, your pet needs to be treated for pain when the signs are present. Your pet may need surgery or vital medication to help it during a medical emergency.
