Sick sluggish dog, please help

Post by wvhunter »

My male has been sluggish since Saturday, at first I just thought he was having a bad day but now I need advice. Not enough money for a vet right now. one day the dog is completely normal, energetic, next day sluggish and each day is loosing more of his appetite. It's like flipping a light switch.

Please help me

My initial guess would be worms. Hooks or whips would be my guess.

Had one that acted like that with the purple tag. I took it off and she was OK.
