Signs of Pain in Pets

Pets can’t tell us when they’re hurting like humans can, which makes identifying pain very tricky. Fortunately, DC Ranch Animal Hospital is here to help both you and your pet.

Signs your pet might be experiencing pain include:

• Inactivity

• Difficulty getting up

• Walking stiffly

• Standing or sitting in strange positions

• Shaking or trembling

• Whining or whimpering

• Constantly licking or chewing on a particular body part

• Unusual behavior (e.g. strangely aggressive)

If your pet is showing any of the above symptoms, it’s possible they’re in pain. Typically, their behavior changes or becomes unusual when they’re experiencing chronic pain. If you notice any of these symptoms, don’t delay and bring them in to see us. We have many options to help your pet feel like themselves again.

It’s important that you do not give your pet any medication without first consulting with our Scottsdale veterinarian. Pets have a different body chemistry than humans do, and it’s important that they receive the right treatment from a qualified professional.

Is your pet in pain? Don’t delay – call (480) 351-6267 or contact us online to make an appointment with our compassionate veterinary team.
