My dog is shaking, has red eyes, and a tick after playing in rain.

Question

Sometimes, my dog plays with his brother (that lives in another house but sometimes he stays here). In the last 5 days they played too much in the rain and they were very wet. Every time that they have to separate, my dog becomes sad, tired and he seems sick. He is not dewormed and has a tick in the ear. Today he layed on his house with a little blanket and he’s shaking and his eyes are a little red, which isn’t normal. I’m very sad because he has to sleep outside and I’m scared for him. Thanks.

If Snoopy has to stay outside it is a good idea to make sure he has the right enclosure that is safe from the rain, cold, and other weather conditions. An insulated dog house or kennel with a secure top can help ensure he stays safe and dry. If he currently has ticks, is ill from being wet for very long, or is otherwise acting unwell, it would be best to bring him to your vet so the tick can be removed and any underlying illnesses treated to help him feel better.
