Why is my dog's nose dry, drinking lots of water, and seems unwell?

Those are a lot of symptoms, and it would be best to schedule a vet visit for your pup for a complete exam and to narrow down possible causes. Allergies, irritation, urinary infections, getting into something irritating, underlying illness or metabolic disease, etc can all be possibilities, so an exam is needed to try and figure out the problem. Be sure to make note of any other symptoms you are seeing, how long these have been ongoing, etc, as they will help your vet better determine what course of action to take.

Unfortunately these symptoms can signal many many conditions. Just like people, there are many conditions that can make pets feel sick. This could range from an infection to cancer. Also like us, diseases are best addressed early and this may result in a better prognosis. I recommend to have her examined by the veterinarian within the next 24 hours. The doctor will need to learn the underlying cause in order to give appropriate treatment. Bring in a stool sample in case the doctor needs to test it. I hope Blu starts feeling better quickly! Please feel free to post any additional questions.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Pixie. She needs to see a veterinarian as soon as possible. Increased thirst and urination as well as weight loss can indicate diabetes, kidney disease, a liver problem or even a uterine infection. Regardless, she will need treatment. The rodenticide toxin you mentioned typically causes a bleeding disorder. While it is possible she could have eaten some, her signs are not consistent with bleeding. This information should be given to the veterinarian though. You mentioned being on lockdown, emergency veterinarian services are hopefully still available. I hope this information helps!

Any continued abnormal symptoms (longer than 24 hours) warrants a vet exam. I cannot tell you what is wrong with her just by your description. Her symptoms are very vague and could be due to almost any illness. Please get her a vet exam as soon as you can.

Your pet needs to be seen by a vet right away. Even with no other symptoms, extreme lethargy is very concerning. Your dog may have eaten something that disagreed with her, swallowed something that has caused an obstruction, has parasites, is coming down with some kind of infection, there are a number of possibilities. Your vet will do an exam and labwork to determine the cause of your pets symptoms and give you some treatment options based on those results.

Since she has been under the weather for a week or so I think it's a good idea for her to be seen by your vet. She may just be adjusting to her new environment and missing her friends, but any abrupt change in behavior is a good reason for her to be examined. It could signal a developing condition or oncoming illness and by getting her seen now you'll be on top of whatever is happening before it progresses.

I’m sorry that Sassie is not feeling well! These are all very nonspecific signs and can indicate that she may be dehydrated, in pain, nauseous, or having trouble breathing. I recommend having her seen by a vet as soon as possible as these may be a sign of a medical emergency.
