   How do you treat a fever in a dog?

   • Vets even use an acronym for this: FUO (Fever of Unknown Origin). To help reduce a pet’s fever — 103 degrees or higher — first apply cool water around their paws and ears. You can use a soaked towel or cloth, or a dog cooling vest. Continue to monitor their temperature, and when it drops below 103, you can stop applying the water.
