DoG HeLp why is he losing weight?

Question

A friend notices that her dog is getting thinner even though she has not changed how much she feeds him. Propose three testable hypotheses to explain the dog’s weight loss..

Answer 1

A dog losing weight can mean a few things. It may have intestinal parasites, such as a tape worm. The best thing is to have a vet look at the dog. Make sure she takes a stool sample with her, it will tell the vets if it is an internal parasite.

Answer 2

Yes, definitely! My aunt's dog has lost a lot of weight recently. With diet foods, walks, and a little encouragement your dog can lose weight.( sounds like a cheezy commercial! XD) Although some dogs lose weight quicker than others. Hope this helped.

Answer 3

1. Friend is irresponsible to allow weight loss without vet exam.
2. Friend does not care enough about the dog to have a vet exam.
3. You are not a dog advocate or you would have persuaded your friend to take the dog to the vet.

don't need any hypothesis or guesses tell your friend to be a resposable dog owner and take her dog to the vet. A vet is a trained medical person trained to determine health problems in a naimal such as your friends dog.

Answer 5

take in a stool sample and have it checked for parisites. if there is nothing showing the dog could have a illness that is causing him to loose weight. the only one who can tell is the vet. best of luck.
