My dog was bitten by a street dog, now sick and won't eat. What to do?

The pain is an issue but the most important issue at the moment is the infection he has developed, you must take him to the vet ASAP, he will need a course of antibiotics and pain killers (you can't use human pain killers for dogs).

From the sound of it, she is severely injured and is probably in great pain as well, you will need to take her to the vet, she will probably need an antibiotic course and possibly some pain killers as well.

You must take him to the vet urgently, dog bites always get infected and that is probably why he is showing those symptoms. it is also very painful and he will probably need pain killers as well as an antibiotic course in order to fight the infection.

You should get your dog to a vet immediately for a thorough examination as there may have been some serious damage done that is not obvious. Hopefully not and it is just the development of some muscle pain etc but at the very least the vet will be able to give some pain relief, alongside peace of mind.

Hi and thanks for posting on Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Very nice picture- handsome dog! I am sorry to hear O2 has been not feeling well lately. There can be variety of medical causes for the symptoms O2 has been experiencing- fever, decreased thirst and appetite, and decreased energy. Infectious causes such as viral infections or parasitic infections could be possibilities. If O2 did come into contact with street dogs, it is possible he could have been exposed to something infectious, potentially. Mosquitos can also transmit infections- in dogs the #1 infection transmitted by mosquitos is heart worms. I recommend O2 see a veterinarian as soon as possible for an exam and full diagnostic work up to determine what is causing O2's symptoms so he can receive the best and most appropriate treatments. Your veterinarian my run blood work, test his stool for parasites and run other diagnostic tests as needed. I hope this helps and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!

Your poor pup! It sounds like he was quite injured from the bite if he is unable to drink water, can only eat slowly, and having some froth in the mouth. I would consider this a medical emergency and he needs to see a vet now. Please take him into one immediately.

It can definitely be the cause, a bite wound can be very painful and tend to get infected very fast, which can cause swelling and more pain. he will need to get it checked by a vet and will probably need antibiotics and pain killers.
