White Gums

[Pam Harris]

My boxer has not been felling well and her gums have turn white. Do you know what causes this.

Possibly anemia, which can be caused by parasites or other factors. I would take her to the vet as soon as possible.

Get to the vet's ASAP! White gums can be a sign of MANY serious problems, and I can't name one that ins't serious.

Good luck!

White gums are a sign of infection, dehydration, anemia or a host of other problems...please get to the vet ASAP. If your boxer hasn't been feeling well and has had vomiting and/or diarrhea it may just be dehydration in which your dog needs fluid ASAP...but if you have had none of those signs it may be more serious than that. I hope he/she is feeling better soon!
