Hi. Not a vet but a vet nurse. Is a little odd, is she normally a good eater? Has she passed faeces in last 2 days. Has she eaten ANYTHING at all? Whilst energetic is she as normal with her energy levels? Is she drinking?

It could be weather related ie got weather reduced appetite but I would say if not better by tom am she should be seen.

Any chance she could have eaten something she shouldn't have in last few days?

She has passed some faeces as normal and had a little something to eat this evening although not anywhere near her usual appetite. She is what I would discribe a "mellow" version of herself. She may have eaten something untoward on a walk.

If she is a bit quiet I would definitely be giving your vets a call in the morn. (unless she is back to normal tom)

She should be fine tonight but any changes phone the emergency vets for advice.

I was working today and we saw a few lethargic, inappetant dogs with high temperatures. We ended up putting a couple on iv fluids.
