Since a dog’s normal body temperature is naturally higher than a human’s, recognizing a true fever can be challenging. Most healthy dogs have a temperature between 101°F and 102.5°F (38.3°C to 39.2°C), which would be considered a fever in people. Because of this, it’s not always obvious when a dog is unwell just by touch. Learning the common signs of fever—such as lethargy, loss of appetite, shivering, or warm ears—and knowing how to safely take your dog’s temperature with a digital rectal thermometer can help you detect problems early. 

Diving into the world of dog breeds, we're taking a different route by exploring those often deemed "ugly." But here's the twist – it's not about looks. It's about the quirky personalities, heartwarming tales, and unique traits that make these dogs unforgettable. From the Neapolitan Mastiff's charming wrinkles to the Brussels Griffon Pug's endearing oddities, these breeds redefine what we consider beautiful.

Have you ever wondered whether cats can get headaches? While they can’t tell us directly, cats may experience discomfort that resembles headaches in humans.

In this guide, we’ll explore whether cats can truly get headaches, the possible signs to watch for, common causes behind this kind of discomfort, and when it’s important to seek veterinary help. Understanding these signals can help you better support your cat’s health and comfort.
