I came across this interesting article about stroke symptoms for dogs. I have a dog and am sure many of the people that read this blog might as well. Do you know if your dog is having a stroke? Their symptoms are very different than that of humans and appear very suddenly.
Some symptoms include:
* tilting the head to the side
* walking in a circle
* turning the wrong way when called
* eating out of only one side of the food bowl
* loss of balance
* lethargy/acting tired
* loss of bladder and bowel control
* blindness
* sudden behavioral changes
IF any of these are noticed by the dog owner, take your pet to the vet immediately.
The causes of canine stroke are similar to that of humans ie: high blood pressure, heart disease, and diabetes to name a few.
