2. In daily life, a regular exercise plan can be developed for the dog, so that the dog can exercise appropriately and maintain a healthy weight, which can increase blood flow and increase the dog's body's use of insulin. To further lower blood sugar levels, exercise should be done regularly.

3. Drug treatment usually involves injecting insulin or hypoglycemic drugs such as phenylcyclohexamide acetate and tolbutamide. The dosage is controlled according to the severity of the condition. Control the dog's blood sugar level at 3.3~6.7mmol/L, which is the normal blood sugar level.

Causes of canine diabetes:

1. When dogs are older, diabetes will occur because the hormone secretion system in the body is prone to disorders.

2. Since the hormones in the dog’s body are different from those of un-neutered dogs, it is easy to increase the risk of diabetes.

3. Dogs that are too obese will burden visceral metabolism, which will increase the risk of diabetes.
