Root Beer Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 I want to get Dean checked out by my vet because it seems like something is just "off" with him health wise. He has had sporadic digestive issues, I have trouble keeping weight on him, and it seems like he gets overheated far too easily. I don't really know what to ask the vet to check for, though. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurae Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 I'd definitely have his thyroid checked, Kristine. Full panel, blood sent to Dr. Dodds, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juliepoudrier Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 In addition to a full blood profile (which would be in addition to a full thyroid panel) I'd test for tick-borne disease. J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
