Causes and Treatment of Abscesses in Dogs
0 Dec 31,2023
I often see posts asking questions such as "My dog vomited" or "What should I do if my dog has diarrhea?" because this is a situation that many dog owners will encounter.
In fact, it is normal for dogs to have diarrhea or vomiting. Every dog owner has encountered similar situations, especially those who are first-time dog owners and have no experience at all, so it is easy to inadvertently cause the dog to feed. The problem.
There are many reasons that can cause dogs to vomit. Sometimes, you only see your dog vomiting, and it may be difficult to actually find out the cause. I have summarized some reasons for your reference.
1. Overfeeding
If your dog vomits, first of all, you should reflect on yourself: "Did you feed it too much?" Because puppies eat very little, but they need to be fed multiple times. If you feed a lot at one time and they can't control themselves, they may eat too much, causing vomiting or not eating dog food.
If you encounter this situation, I can only recommend that you don’t feed it for the time being, and don’t touch its belly or play with it. You can feed it some stomach and digestive tablets.
2. Viral infection
If your dog does not accumulate food, then consider whether it is a viral infection, such as parvovirus, canine distemper, coronavirus, salmonella, etc. You can go to the hospital for testing. There are special test strips and it is a very simple method. You can also prepare some at home. If you feel uncomfortable with them, you can test them yourself. If you find a positive infection, go to the hospital for treatment immediately.
3. Caused by disease
If your dog has no food accumulation and no viral infection, it may be caused by other diseases, such as intussusception, intestinal obstruction, hepatitis, appendicitis, pancreatitis, etc. You need to go to the hospital for examination before you can draw a conclusion. .
