Why is a stray dog shivering with unresponsive legs and won't eat?

Poor Polar. The shivering could be from pain or he could have a fever. You should have him examined by a vet to determine the cause. Your vet can run blood work if needed and then determine the best way to treat. He might need an antibiotic and/or pain medications to treat.

If you suspect your dog has rabies it is best to seek emergency medical care from your veterinarian immediately. If you cannot safely handle your dog, seeking out the help of animal control or other services that can safely handle him is best to avoid being bitten.

Hi, poor Romeo. Does he seem to have a temperature ? Are his ears warm to touch ? Are his gums a little pinker than usual ? He could have picked up something, a bacteria for example. Look out for any specific symptoms, offer fresh water and keep him comfortable. I would recommend to have him checked over when your vet is open. Hope this helps !

I am very sorry to hear about Best, but it sounds like he truly needs veterinary care as soon as possible. I would be concerned about an allergic reaction but also it is concerning that he has drooling and shivering with aggression. This makes us very concerned about the possibility of rabies or canine distemper. He should be seen right away by a vet to examine him and try to determine what is going on and if he can be treated.

It sounds like your dog needs to be examined by a vet to determine the cause. It is very concerning that he can't stand on his own and collapses. Your vet can run blood work and take an x-ray, if needed, to diagnose the problem and then determine the best way to treat. He could have a problem with his spine, heart disease, metabolic, endocrine problem, etc. Please call your vet and have him seen as soon as possible.

Shaking or muscle tremors, difficulty walking and seizures can be a sign of neurologic disease in the brain. There are many infectious and inflammatory diseases that can cause signs like these. Severe liver disease or low blood sugar could also cause neurologic signs. I would recommend seeing your veterinarian if you have not already had Bobby examined. They can check blood work and may recommend testing for some infectious diseases. Often referral to a neurologist for an MRI and sampling spinal fluid is necessary to get a diagnosis, but there may be some treatments your veterinarian could recommend before more testing.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This is possibly neck or back pain or pain of a different source. It could still be pain associated with a leg even if nothing seems wrong with them. I recommend that you have Pari evaluated by your veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Likely diagnostics include radiographs. Treatment would be based on findings. At the very least they can prescribe pain control medications to make Pari feel better. In the meantime, reduce her activity as much as possible as that in itself can make a big difference. Good luck and have a good day!
