I'm concerned that you only "like" your dog. don't you love your dog? when you have any animal, they rely on you for thir every need, and your dog needs help. whether you love them, as any owner of a dog should love them, or only like them, it's your responsibility to ensure that if they need medical treatment that they get it. try to learn to love your dog. they love you. that's what dogs do. they deserve better than to be liked. get them well again, and find the love that comes naturally to most people who share their lives with a dog.

Hi rajaniroy, I don't keep any pet for quite some time for I don't have time to take care of it. It's really joy to play with our pet dog during our leisure. I'm sorry to learn that your dog is feeling unwell after it came across the undesired accident. I did keep dogs as pet before. From my experience dog would find plants itself which would help to heal its sickness. Therefore it's nice to walk it outside where bushes of plants are available. If there is any wound found try to sterilize and apply appropriate antiseptics germicide.

if the accident involved any broken limbs, I doubt the dog will find plants to heal that. it's a horrible, lazy attitude to dog ownership, that whatever happens, you'll just let them find plants to make them better. I hope you have no children, if that's your attitude to those you have a responsibility to.

lol do you really think that dogs are going to find plants to heal their fractured bone? The dog usually search for grass when it has some stomach related illness.ranjiniroy says taht her dog met with an accident and you are saying it is going to eat those magic grass and heal itself..wow. Giving foolish advises to people is not the right thing to do when they are in trouble.

If you want help, you have to comment back to your responders. What was the accident that your dog had? What breed of dog is it? How old is your dog?

Hey you must take it to the nearest veterinary hospital.If you dont have one in your village then it should be there in your nearby village.I say that because there should be cows in your village and they too need the service of a vet.Either try to bring the vet to your home or get an auto rickshaw to take your dog to vet. What i have to say is don't be reluctant to take your dog to vet just because there is no vet near you.Since it has met with an accident it would be really in need of a pain killer.Ask the vet for a painkiller that you can give to the dog.From my experience vets in india are reluctant to prescribe any pain killer for dogs since lot of painkillers are toxic for dogs.

Hello Rajaniroy, I'm sorry to hear that your dog had an accident. The best suggestion I could make is to take him to the closest vet. Or, if there is a mobile vet clinic, to call for it. Nobody on the Internet will be able to make your dog feel better. Only a professional can consult the dog and take the proper decision for his treatment. What kind of accident did he had?
