Anemic dog :(

Our dog, Dewey, is anemic.
We took him to Animal Doctors in Alabang last week for a check up and blood test and we only found about the results today.
Anemia is the result of complications or diseases (e.g. car accident, kidney disease). Anemia is the shortage of red blood cells in your pet’s blood. Red blood cells contain hemoglobin, which carries oxygen throughout your pet’s body. A shortage of red blood cells results in reduced oxygen delivery to tissues and organs, which in severe cases can lead to cell damage, organ dysfunction or death. Anemia is a common problem in sick or injured dogs.
Right now he’s taking three medicines (one for vitamins, one for cough and one for immunity) and since he’s anemic, we have to give him another medicine. And we have to feed him liver too. Poor doggie…!!!!!!!!
