As a shit shovel officer, the dog’s health may be the greatest gratification of the shit shovel officer, and it is also a manifestation of whether the shit shovel officer is qualified. Dogs can’t speak, and they can’t express their discomfort in words. However, the shovel officer can judge the health information of the dog from the physical reaction of the dog, especially the diseases related to the oral cavity and digestive system, and some can disturb the nerves. Systemic diseases can also cause conditions such as drooling. Below are some of the contents for your reference.
First of all, let me explain that the situations I’m talking about below are unusual situations, and if the dog is always like this, there’s nothing else It’s not normal, so don’t be nervous. . . .
1. The dog is drooling
The dog suddenly drools, most likely because of an injury in the mouth or something swallowed Living. If it is stuck in the teeth, the dog will grab the mouth with the front paws or rub the mouth with the paws; if it is stuck in the esophagus, it will always raise the neck, and the dog will have difficulty swallowing. Injuries in the mouth, such as eating punctures, mouth ulcers, periodontitis, etc., can also cause dogs to drool wildly. It is worth mentioning that rabies, this deadly disease can also cause dogs to drool wildly, but rabies is also accompanied by nervousness, anxiety, barking, biting things, etc., which is different from the above-mentioned oral diseases and ingestion of foreign objects. Still pretty big.
2. Difficulty swallowing in dogs
A dog will have difficulty swallowing if something gets stuck in his throat or has an oral disease. drooling. However, the book says that some dogs with tumors will also have difficulty swallowing, which I have no experience with.
3. Dogs drink water like crazy
Dogs after exercise Drinking water is normal, but if your dog suddenly drinks water every day, it may be due to the following problems: fever, kidney problems, diabetes, or pyometra. We can easily verify the fever by measuring the body temperature. If there is a kidney problem, the pet dog will also have pain and blood in the urine while drinking and urinating more. Diabetes will cause weight loss while drinking, urinating, and eating more. I don’t know much about pus in the uterus, but it’s not a good phenomenon for dogs to suddenly drink water, and they must be paid attention to.
4. Bad breath in dogs
The first thing that comes to mind is periodontitis, tartar, and calculus. But the book says kidney and liver disease can also cause the dog to have an unusual odor in the mouth. It is normal for dogs to have a little taste in their mouths because no matter how much we brush their teeth, it seems that there will inevitably be some tartar and calculus. After all, we cannot brush our teeth every day. But if we smell a different odor in the dog’s mouth than usual, we should pay attention and, at the same time, observe the dog’s diet to see if there are any signs of other problems.
