Dogs have transformed from being a housekeeper to a pet, and have gained a certain status. When people raise pets, they no longer feed their dogs scraps like they used to. Nowadays, dogs eat carefully made dog food and various snacks. Most dogs are raised in captivity and lack exercise. You must know that if people do not exercise for a long time, their bodies will have health problems, and the same goes for dogs. The dog is sick, how should the owner take care of it? Here are 5 suggestions for your reference!

If you can't determine the cause of your dog's disease, you should see a veterinarian promptly and don't delay the best time for treatment.

2. Let the dog rest quietly, do not play with it, and keep it in a good state of treatment.

3. What dogs need most when they are sick is to supplement protein, vitamins and inorganic salts.

If it is a fever, the metabolism level will increase by 10% for every 1 degree Celsius increase in body temperature, which means that the consumption of nutrients in the body is significantly higher than normal. However, diseases often affect the digestive function, the appetite is not good, and the food will not be eaten if it does not taste good. Therefore, the food prepared for it must not only be easy to digest and nutritious, but also very delicious. Some diseases can cause saliva secretion to decrease, making it difficult to chew and swallow food. Broth can be mixed into the food to make liquid or paste food. People with gastrointestinal diseases, especially vomiting and diarrhea, will lose a lot of food. Moisture, at this time it is necessary to provide it with sufficient drinking water or large doses of intravenous fluids.

Do not feed foods rich in fat and crude fiber, and increase foods with high nutritional value such as lean meat or hard-boiled eggs; for thin dogs, chicken liver is the first choice.

5. Manage its daily life well and remove excrement in time.

The dog's food, bedding and surrounding environment should be disinfected regularly; pay attention to the ambient temperature, keep warm in winter and ventilate in summer.
