Anorexia is a rather common problem in pets and although it can be something benign, it could also be caused by something serious. Like any other concern, if your family pet is acting differently, it must be investigated to further see what is causing it. Do not neglect anorexia in your pets because it can result in problems with malnutrition and dehydration.

03/07/2011 Scranton, PA - Philip Lenard is a pet dog owner and he shares an experience he had when his family pet stopped eating for no particular reason. "It was not that Homer was a fussy eater for starters with, he would eat everything, so you could imagine my concern when he stopped eating," said Lenard. "I took him to the dog vet and it turned out that he had something to do with his teeth, that were fixed easy enough." Lenard was also at hand at the launch of the webpage - http://www.weimaranerproblems.com/weimaraner-training/.

In one of the boards that discussed weimaraner training, one owner affirmed her concern as to why her pet weimaraner stopped eating. There without a doubt are a number of reasons why a pet weimaraner would get anorexia. The first thing you need to do is to find out if the anorexia occurs with other warning signs. For example, does the pet dogs anorexia come with other signs and symptoms.

If the anorexia is the only symptom displayed by your pet weimaraner, it could be just that the pet dog is picky about something. If this is the case then you must not panic and give your pet weimaraner no less than 2 days before you take it the vet. If the issue is not improved in two days and if it is not caused by something else, you have to take it to the dog vet.

Changes in diet can cause anorexia in dogs. If you change your dog's diet for one reason or another then it could lead problems with eating until the pet weimaraner starts to get familiar with the new food. A heat cycle, either your dog's or of another pet dog in your house, could also cause problems with appetite. This type of anorexia will go away on its own.

An owner needs to be concerned when the anorexia is coupled with problems like weakness, lethargy, coughing, and fevers, then pets should taken to the dog vet. The pet weimaraner also needs to be taken to the dog vet when it is showing signs of bloat. Vomiting or coughing up of blood ought to be another cause of concern. You should also take your dog to the vet ASAP if it is showing signs of breathing problems.

In the weimaraner training boards, there was one commenter who said that pets can have anorexia when they have issues with their stomach. For example, if a dog has gastric ulcers, there is a chance that it will stop eating when it is in pain. A family pet could also stop eating because of any blockages in the GI tract.
