"Does my dog need to go to the vet?"

OK I always thought this was self explanatory but I guess not

YOUR dog needs to see a vet soon if

it's had diarrhea for more than 2-3 days;

it's been vomiting several times a day for 2 days

it is urinating in inappropriate indoor places (and is housebroken)

seems overly tired and sluggish for several days

has a limp that has not gotten better in several days

has a fever that is over 102 for more than a day

has a cough or eye/nasal discharge etc for more than a day

Your dog needs to see a vet NOW if

it is bleeding from any orfice (and is not a bitch in heat)

has diarrhea that looks like blood or is blood

is suddenly 3 legged lame

has a broken bone

was hit by a car

fell out of a car or window

sounds like it is choking

faints

has a seizure when it has never had one before

is vomiting and foaming at the mouth

seems uncomfortable and bloated

has a fever over 104

I'm sure there are more but this is a start. Please people have a little common sense. PLEASE
