SEP 2003 HEALTH TIPS FOR SINGAPORE DOG LOVERS Many conditions affect the health of the puppy. Some examples are shown below. There are other examinations required when purchasing a puppy or kitten. When in doubt, always consult your veterinary surgeon.
EYELIDS ITCHY Puppies are very popular with children. Chihuahua. Hair loss around eyelids leading to a "spectacled-eyed" look is not normal for any puppy. Note loss of hair in front of ears too.	EYELIDS ITCHY "Spectacled eyes" or hair loss around eyelids. This may be curable. Get a veterinarian to check.
HYPOTHERMIA This Jack Russell puppy just wanted to curl up and sleep on the veterinary table. It was purchased within 24 hours. Hypothermia (lower than normal body temperature) is serious for any puppy.	KENNEL COUGH On returning home, the puppy had a light watery coloured runny nose persisting all day, just like someone with flu. There was coughing. KENNEL COUGH in new puppies is the main complaint of Singaporeans who buy puppies. Do get prompt veterinary attention.
NOT EATING IN NEW HOME Miniature Schnauzer Nikee, belonging to the Kee family stopped eating two days after purchase. It could be tired or having a fever. After being rested in a crate and adding water to the dry dog feed, the puppy ate. Big bones and good build are some factors important in the selection of any puppy.	GENERALISED SKIN INFECTIONS Boxer puppy with pimples all over the face and body and legs. Intense itch leading to self mutilation of the face. Skin disease cases may need months of care and treatment costs add up to a large amount. It is best not to buy an unhealthy puppy. Educational story at: White footed pup not good for business?
GENERALISED SKIN INFECTIONS The one-year Labrador Retriever needed a clipping of the coat as there were too many pimples and rashes and veterinary attention. It will not be effective to treat with pet products from the pet shop.	ITCHY ARMPITS The armpit rashes on this adult Chihuahua were very itchy 2 days after a visit to the groomer. The groomer was blamed but the condition was present earlier.
SKIN RASHES & ITCHINESS An adult Jack Russell with back rashes and pain. There are many causes, e.g. friction from the bed frame or rolling on grass. The dog bites when touched because it has pain on its body.	RINGWORM Miniature Schnauzer. Big circular patches of hair loss is not normal in any puppy. The patches kept growing more and more despite one visit to a veterinarian. Skin disease treatment usually requires more than one visit to your vet.
SHORT OF BREATH AFTER SHAMPOOING The Shetland puppy was breathless after shampooing. Owners may need to be more careful with medicated shampoos for Shelties. 3-month-old Shelties imported from Australia sell for as much as $1,600 in 2003 and are sold out within 1 week as demand exceeds supply.
