"Pets with Salmonella infections may be lethargic and have diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever, and vomiting. Some pets will have only decreased appetite, fever and abdominal pain.

<span style="font-size: large;">My favorite lesson is "<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Lato, Georgia, Times, serif; line-height: 23.390625px;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Lato, Georgia, Times, serif; line-height: 23.390625px;">Never, ever, fake a service dog with your own per dog. Seriously. Don’t impersonate a service dog team so that you can fly your dog in the cabin or take them into Target with you to shop for sassy t-shirts. It’s ruining things for real service dogs and their people. Don’t exploit someone else’s hardship. It’s just not o.k.".</span></span><br />

<div class="article" id="cel-template" style="background-color: #9cb26b; border: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<div class="element" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<div class="element-body" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<ol style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 32px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; list-style: disc; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><br /></li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; list-style: disc; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">A few tips from Nancy Kay Veterinarian from the bay area, Calif.</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; list-style: disc; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><br /></li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; list-style: disc; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Request a written cost estimate for veterinary services before they are provided. How else can you possibly know if your bill will be $200 or $2000? With an estimate in hand, you will avoid the element of surprise and won’t end up paying for things you deem to be unnecessary. In no way does requesting an estimate reflect how much you love your pet; you are simply being fiscally responsible.</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; list-style: disc; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Avoid over-vaccinating your dog. We used to think that distemper and parvovirus vaccines had to be given annually. We now know that these vaccinations provide a minimum of three year’s worth of protection (once the puppy series has been completed). Kick the once a year vaccine habit. If your vaccine reminder card suggests otherwise, have a heart-to-heart conversation with your veterinarian.</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; list-style: disc; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Be a savvy consumer of supplements for your dog. Some supplement suppliers would like you to believe that your dog’s good health, from puppyhood on, is dependent on their products. Avoid being seduced by such ads. Talk with your veterinarian about which supplements are worthy expenditures for your dog. Then utilize only the ones that are recommended, rather than paying for three or four others that might be found in combined supplement products.</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; list-style: disc; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Price shop for your dog’s prescriptions. If the medication prescribed is a human drug, compare the human pharmacy price to what your veterinary hospital would charge. Big box or chain pharmacies purchase medications in bulk and can pass the savings onto you. Costco prices are usually some of the lowest, and some human pharmacies offer substantial AAA discounts for pet prescriptions. For veterinary prescription items your dog receives on a regular basis (heartworm preventive, flea and tick control products, prescription diets), you might find the best savings via online pharmacies (bear in mind, not all such pharmacies are reputable — it pays to do some research). Yes, you still need your veterinarian’s authorization. You can ask your vet for a written prescription and use it as you would for your own prescriptions. Another option is to contact an online pharmacy with your request and they will request authorization from your veterinarian via a fax transmission. These days, veterinarians are certainly used to receiving such requests.</li>
