My dog has low energy and isn't wagging his tail. Is he sick?

Yes, it could be Willow isn't feeling well. Lethargy is a very general sign of illness, so keep an eye on him for now. If this behavior continues over the next 24 hours, or he develops other signs such as anorexia, vomiting, or diarrhea, take him into a vet right away. Best of luck, I hope this helps!

Poor Edy! Lethargy is a very general sign of illness in dogs, can it can be caused by a systemic illness, infection, injury, or inflammation. I would monitor her tonight, and if she is still lethargic in the morning, I would have her seen by a vet for a health check.

Hello, thank you for your question about Milo. I would not be too worried about the position of his tail, if he is able to move it freely and is non-painful this is likely not a problem. Lethargy and lack of weight gain are nonspecific signs that can be indicative of many different underlying disease conditions. If you are interested in looking into this matter further I would recommend having Milo seen by your veterinarian. They can examine him and discuss the need for additional diagnostics such as systemic bloodwork. Hope this helps, Milo is very cute!

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Lack of energy can be the sign of many things that go from just being tired to actually representing a problem like due to pain for example. If he is otherwise fine, I recommend you keep a close eye on him for now. If there is no improvement within the next 2-3 days, have him evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Good luck and have a great day!

It sounds like Leia is lethargic. Lethargy is a very general sign of illness, and it ca be caused by systemic illness, infection, inflammation, or injury. Keep an eye on her tonight, and if she is still acting this way in the morning, have her seen by a vet.

I'm sorry Moose doesn't seem well! Lethargy is a very general sign of illness in dogs, and can be caused by many things including systemic illness, inflammation, infection, or injury. Given that he has eaten this morning and the symptoms just started, I would keep an eye on him for the next 48-72 hours. Should the lethargy continue over this time period, or he develops other signs such as anorexia, vomiting, and/or diarrhea, I would take Moose into the vet for a health check.

I'm very sorry Sadie isn't feeling well! I can understand they you might be worried, but it is a good sign that she is eating every meal and drinking water. Lethargy is a very general sign of illness, and it can be caused by many different things such as systemic illness, infection, injury, or inflammation. I would monitor her for now, and if she is still lethargic in 24-48 hours, I would take her into the vet for a health check.
