Changes in urination or difficulty passing urine.
Weight loss or gain for no apparent reason.
Lethargy, irritability or behavioural changes.

In the veterinary practice we value your dog or cat with medical history + complete examination (pain, hydration, mucous membranes, abdomen, auscultation, skin and ears, mobility). If we need to confirm the cause, measure the severity, or choose the most appropriate treatment, we can recommend steps only when they provide useful information:
Blood tests y urinalysiswhen there is weakness, fever, loss of appetite/weight, persistent vomiting/diarrhoea, changes in drinking/urination or as a preventive check-up according to age.
Coprological tests / stool analysisif there is recurrent diarrhoea, mucus/blood in stool or suspicion of parasites.
Veterinary ultrasounduseful for abdominal pain, repeated vomiting or to assess organs and soft tissues.
Veterinary radiologySupport for lameness/trauma, chest (cough/breathing difficulty) or suspicion of foreign bodies.
Microscopy and cytologyin lumps, recurrent otitis or skin lesions to guide treatment.
If the case requires global monitoring or is recurrent, we coordinate the plan from veterinary internal medicine. If the reason is locomotor pain/injury, we address it in conjunction with veterinary orthopaedics and traumatology. And if the weight influences the problem (skin, joints, metabolism), we work on it with veterinary nutrition.
