Signs of Canine Diabetes in Dogs


Canine diabetes awareness is quickly becoming a strong topic in vet offices across the United States. If you own a canine of any breed then make sure you talk to your vet about canine diabetes. Canine diabetes is most often seen in obese dogs, female dogs, and in senior dogs. There have; however, been numerous instances when diabetes occurred in young dogs or even in male dogs. Dogs that have diabetes will most likely be extremely thirsty and urinate frequently. The primary job of insulin is to trigger the liver and muscles to convert glucose from the blood into sugar. When this doesn’t happen there is an excessive amount of glucose in the blood stream, which is discharged from the body through urination. Other symptoms of diabetes may include hunger, weight loss, lethargy, vomiting, enlarged liver, cataracts, bladder or kidney infection. Consult with your vets Kerrville, TX to learn more.
