dog off form when to worry?

angeldaisy · 2012-11-10 13:34:31

Hi my new dog, she's 2yrs is a bit off form. She seems lethargic and is sleeping a lot. She's eating albeit not as much and she's drinking some water, She doesn't seem to be in any pain. My vet is closed til Monday, do I need to take her to see a different vet or should I wait and see how she is over the weekend?

Check her poop and I also normally feel inside their ears to see if they have a temperature. If she's eating, drinking, has no discernible temperature and her pees and poops are ok i'd say keep an eye , a close eye but don't panic. Oh also watch for any fitting, zoning out etc.
