What should I do if I think my doberman puppy has a fever?

If you think your puppy has a fever, take it to the vet immediately. It could be something minor, but it pays to be sure.

Make sure its a fever. Dogs temperatures run higher than humans. If its over 103 degrees take him to the vet. Never give him human medication.

A feverish puppy may be lethargic, uninterested in food, and obviously unwell; or just a little slower than usual. Either way, there is no question here: call your vet!

It's always best to visit a vet if you suspect your puppy is sick. Home treatments could cause a reaction and are not always going to solve the problem.
