My 7 month old puppy has a fever. I know that the norm is 101-103 degrees. She has been sick lately, she has just finished her 2rounds of anitbiotics given from the vet. I just hate to call him up if there is something that I can do here at home to reduce the fever. It's not that high, but yet she has not been herself and and she is very very weak. I am open to suggestions!

Call the vet if you can. place ice packs on the insides of her rear legs on her femerol arteries to lower her temp.This is how we treat heat stroke dogs at the vet. But, if she is very weak something else is going on. Request more blood work. Hope this helps.

CALL YOUR VET!! .. If the pup is on antibiotics and is still running a fever and is still weak then maybe the vet didn't give the antibiotic that is taking away what is making the pup ill in the first place.. This is a DVM question. Call your vet before your pup gets worse.. good luck.

If there is an emergency veterinary hospital in your area, give them a call. They are usually very helpful. If your pup's fever rises, I would call the vet or get her to a vet ASAP.

Sounds like your pup is lacking enough water, try giving her more water.
