Question by NanaNibs: Is there any way that you can tell if a dog is in pain?
Unfortunately, they can never tell us how exactly they are feeling.
My golden retriever is 11 1/2 years old. She has a few lumps on her and has slowed down quite a bit. The vet told us we shouldn't be concerned about the lumps. But we really don't know how much longer she will be with us. I just wanted to make sure she is not in any pain. I wish pets could just speak to us!

Well they will show signs by crying, helping, shaking, etc. Also, if for example their paw is hurt, they will hold it up or keep it limp. There are warning signs when dogs are in pain and the dog will find a way to let you know

Question by --05/13/09--: How can you tell if the dog is in pain?
In my last question I was told to wait until tomorrow to call the vets unless he's in obvious pain. But how can I tell? I tried wiping his eye with a warm washcloth but if I go even near his eye or whole head at that he closes the eye and backs off.
His eye is all red, looks swollen around it, and has a black thing covering a small part of the inside of his eye. everyone told me to try rinsing his eye out so that's what I did...
