5 of the deadly disease of dogs

1. Parvovirus


Puppies in breeding facilities or shelters are most at risk of coming in contact with an infected dog. Most dogs contract parvo by coming into contact with the poop of a contaminated dog, either directly or indirectly, like on a shoe.

Symptoms include severe diarrhea and weight loss, vomiting, and lethargy.

4.. Chocolate Poisoning

Pretty much everyone knows dogs can’t eat chocolate. But surprisingly, a good number of dogs still manage to get their paws on it, and it remains of the most common causes of poisoning in dogs.
Symptoms of chocolate poisoning include vomiting, diarrhea, pacing, panting, and shaking. More serious cases could cause an irregular heart beat, seizures, heart attack, or even death. If you think you dog has eaten any chocolate, do not wait to take him to the doctor.


The amount your dog eats and the type of chocolate are the two main issues.
