If a Border Collie gets wet or cold, it may catch a cold. If it is only a mild cold, it will soon get better with some cold medicine, warmth and good nutritious food. But what if the cold causes a fever? How do you know if your Border Collie has a fever or not. First of all, the most effective way to determine if your Border Collie has a fever is to measure its body temperature. Next, you can also look at the Border Collie’s appetite. When his appetite decreases, he eats only a little food, and his whole body looks lethargic and then wants to sleep. Then, it means that it may have a fever. Finally, you can look at the Border Collie’s nose. When the nose is very dry, this is also a sign of fever. This is because normally the Border Collie’s nose is usually moist, unless it has a health problem and is suffering from some disease. When the Border Collie has a fever, don’t be too anxious. You can use a towel dipped in cold water, wrung out, and put it on the Border Collie’s abdomen to cool it down. Then take him to the vet for professional treatment. Whether you give it a fever reducing injection or fever reducing medicine, you should actively cooperate with your veterinarian. In the process of raising the Border Collie, take it for regular exercise to enhance its physical fitness. Also don’t give it to get wet or cold, and usually after bathing, use a hair dryer to dry its hair in time to avoid fever caused by cold. In raising a Border Collie, you must be very careful so that it can grow up healthy and happy.
