Can foreign objects in dog stomach cause high body temperature?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

yes I just took my 10 month old boxer puppy to the ve this morning 8/20/08 with a 103.8 temp and they found foreign objects in her stomach. a black string and a piece of metal. They have induced her to vomiting with berhum. Hoping she will be ok and no surgury. If you suspect your dog has swallowed anything besides food, especially long string, long metal objects, magnets, of any size, or batteries, you need to take your dog to the vet ASAP! Don't wait for a fever, that is a symptom of something wrong! You need to take them before their body is in trouble. The fever can be a signal of many things wrong, but having foreign matter inside your gut would cause it, definitly. The vet can X-ray and see what they have swallowed and then take the proper steps to try and help your dog in the best way, depending on the shape and size of the object swallowed. This is always best handled before the object gets into the intestines, once there, the risk to your dog increases horribly. You need to go to the VET as soon you become suspious, or, when you see them swallow the object.

What is the normal body temperature of domestic animals and birds in centigrade?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It depends on the species, here are a few of the common domestic species and their normal temperatures:

Dog - 37.5-39oC

Cat - 38-39.5oC

Cow - 38-38.5oC

Horse - 37.5-38.5oC

Pig - 38.5-39oC

Sheep - 38.4-39.5oC

Most birds - 40.5-42oC

Rabbits - around 39.5oC

There are minor variations in 'normal' ranges depending on where you look them up therefore slight variations may also be seen as normal (e.g. a dog with a temperature of 39.3oC would probably still be considered to have a 'normal' temperature).

How high can your body temperature be before it becomes life threatening?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Generally anything under 95 F is considered life-threatening and rewarming should be by medical supervision. A healthy adult can withstand temperature drop much more than can the elderly or children. Infants and neonates are notorious for hypothermia, especially in the case of childbirth outside the hospital. Heart dysrhythmias are common as the core body temperature drops, and medical intervention (Paramedics/Emergency Room) can mean the difference between life and death. Please don't take risks with your length of exposure to cold. One of the first signs of hypothermia is an altered level of consciousness, occasionally manifesting as an unwillingness to move from the cold environment.

Can you get a fever from onions?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Sticking a sliced onion or sliced garlic under the armpits for at least a few hours is said to raise the temperature of the body a few degrees. A better alternative to this is simply not faking a fever or being honest about your reasons for wanting to avoid whatever the fever would excuse you from.

Why is it important to maintain a stable temperature in our bodies?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It's important to maintain a stable temperature in our bodies because we want to stay healthy. If our temperature is too high (like higher than a fever temperature), or is too lower than our normal body temperature (about 98 degrees), we could get really sick or possibly die.

What happens if your body temperature drops low?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

As fever increases so does physical discomfort. The person may sweat profusely then stop sweating altogether. There may be abdominal discomfort and general body aches. There could be eye pain and headache. Some people hallucinate with a high fever. Eventually you will become dehydrated (if untreated) and organs will begin to fail. Eventually death will result.
