Samoyed dog (introduction to details)
In hot summer, it is very sad for dogs. In addition to the usual care, the owner has to pay more attention to prevent summer diseases such as heatstroke and air-conditioning diseases. Xiaobian will tell you some points for attention when raising dogs in summer.
< strong>1. Never keep your dog in the car < /strong >
Some car owners don't keep their dogs in the car, because the temperature in the car is high in summer, the heat can't escape, and the air is not smooth. At the same time, the heat on its own body can't escape, which easily leads to death from lack of oxygen.
< strong> 2. Dogs also suffer from air conditioning syndrome < /strong >
Dogs can also suffer from air-conditioning diseases if they spend too much time in the air-conditioned environment. Especially in the blazing noon, it's easier to get sick when you suddenly take your dog outside the house, or bring the dog that has been exposed to the sun back to the air-conditioned home. After a dog suffers from air-conditioning disease, the first symptoms are sneezing and runny nose, dull energy, anorexia, or even eating or drinking. It looks similar to the symptoms of a cold, but it is actually much more serious than a cold. In severe cases, the body temperature rises, and the breathing and heart rate speed up. If it is not good, the dog will die suddenly.
Therefore, it is suggested that dog owners should not let their dogs stay in the air-conditioned environment for a long time in summer. When taking them out, it is best to choose the time when the temperature is low in the early morning or evening. It is strictly forbidden for dogs to sleep under the air-conditioned outlet. Generally speaking, they should stay in the environment with natural wind. Once a dog has air-conditioning disease, it should be sent to a pet hospital for medical treatment.
< strong>3. Eating and drinking with balanced nutrition is the most important thing < /strong >
Summer is a sweaty season, and dogs will also lose a lot of water. It is important not to let them lack water, and always check whether there is clean and sufficient water in their food bowl. Don't give the dog the food directly from the refrigerator, so as to avoid the over-cooled food stimulating gastrointestinal diseases. At most, make up some nutrients containing electrolytes for dogs.
< strong> 4. Keep it clean < /strong >
Dogs should be kept clean in summer. If you find something abnormal, such as skin diseases, excessive secretion of ears and eyes, don't forget to call a veterinarian nearby.
