Thyroid problems and symptoms
-
Hi just rejoined the group. Have 10 year old intact male, up until a year ago he was fine but then suddenly started to gain enormous amount of weight. The vets did full blood tests for thyroid etc and all came back clear. Since then he is just piling on the pounds (kilos) he was always big at 45K but vet was happy with that because he is a very large dog . But now he is up to 60K !! vet says we are overfeeding but he is eating far less now than a year ago. Has anyone had any issues with thyroid problems and what are the symptoms?? Would be grateful for any feedback
Some years ago, one of my parents’ Labrador retrievers had a thyroid issue. If it’s severe enough for him to gain that much weight, it should most definitely show up in the blood work, as it did with my parents boy.
I would seek the opinion of another vet. Where are you located?
