bitch panting very fast

[R2L]

Thanks

I've done some research on possible causes for the problem. And one of those is anemia which can be caused by iron and sometimes b12 deficiency. Now because he is in financial very bad times he's been feeding mainly some kind of catfish for the last 8 months. 1+1 = 2 Going to ask for a blood research. Expecting low value of hemoglobin then.

Im supplementing her already, for both.

Anemia can also be caused by a disturbed making or higher break down of red blood cells. This bitch was given epo around 5 months ago without blood testing her. (not in my hands)

Good investigation into the problem.

Wow, straight fish is the worst thing you can feed a dog ... right along with rabbit and deer.

Bitch might be ruined. Also, if this retard was feeding her raw catfish, be aware that one should never feed raw fish to a dog. Some kinds of fish carry parasites that are devastating to dogs (protozoa and worms), that affect blood and liver function, and a bottom-dwelling, scum-sucking species like a catfish would be the worst kind to feed raw to a dog.

I was wrong. We did a blood test and hemoglobin level was ok. I don't know for the other values which show High and Low.
I asked about "Gran' he said thats the level of bacteria cells in the blood. He said it should all recover once she get proper food, movement, less stress ect.
For the rest she was fine.

Jack, he says he's been giving vitamin/mineral tablets and fed kibbles once a week. The fish was cleaned and frozen -25.

Here are the results of the bloodtest.
Will repeat in 6-8 weeks.

Would be valuable to know what bacteria is in the blood. Also, this does nothing to measure protozoa/worm/heartworm burden.

That's good about the fish and supplements. Would like to know about fecal/liver function and get the bacteria identified.

Good job on the follow-through; hope all goes well.
