1 Symptoms and causes of dog anemia
Some parents do not believe that dogs can also have anemia, so naturally they do not know what the symptoms of dog anemia are. My dog has always been anemic, so I am very concerned about this issue. In general, the symptoms of anemia in dogs are mainly dizzy brain, weakness all over, shortness of breathing, pale face, unable to lie down, and general failure. In fact, these symptoms of anemia in dogs are caused by a variety of reasons, mainly divided into hemorrhagic anemia, hemolytic anemia, nutritional anemia and aplastic anemia. Among them, only hemorrhagic anemia is the easiest to solve, while the other types need to be treated under the scientific guidance of the veterinarian!
However, hemorrhagic anemia is divided into acute hemorrhagic anemia and chronic hemorrhagic anemia. Acute anemia refers to heavy bleeding caused by residual trauma or other reasons; chronic anemia refers to bleeding caused by some diseases or organs of the body. If the dog has anemia, parents should carefully identify it to see which type of bleeding it is caused by. Only by finding the crux of the problem can the right medicine be given! If it does not belong to any of the above, it is due to other reasons. At this time, parents should immediately send their dog to the hospital for professional treatment. If one minute delays, the dog will be one more dangerous.
2 What to do if a dog has anemia and what to eat
1. In terms of diet, when a dog has anemia, its diet should first be improved. Parents should prepare some balanced and comprehensive foods for their dogs, and at the same time, appropriately add vitamins and protein foods, such as nutrient-rich grains, goat milk powder and other nutrients.
2. Drug dosage In addition, dogs should be supplemented with hematopoietic substances, or directly consume nutritional products such as blood-tonifying liver essence, blood-generating treasures, combined protein powder, and high-quality dog food. Doctors’ recommendations for drug dosage are: ferrous sulfate: 2 to 3 times a day, oral; cobalt chloride, oral, 3 to 5 ml per day, 0.3% solution; vitamins, intramuscular injection, once a day; folic acid, oral, once a day, 1-3 mg.
3. Blood transfusion therapy is subject to blood transfusion under the scientific guidance of a doctor. Remember to slow down the blood transfusion speed. Generally, 10 to 15 ml is given in an hour. The specific dose depends on the dog's specific volume!
What to eat 1. In addition to giving your dog protein or vitamins, the golden partner can also supplement it with some golden partner nutrition packages, such as the British MAG goat milk powder, golden vitamins, super calcium, etc., so as to make the dog's nutrition more comprehensive and balanced!
2. Vitamin C has insufficient iron content in some foods. Parents can supplement iron with dogs. Vitamin C can help the iron absorb effectively and can also help increase heme. Therefore, the intake of vitamin C must also be sufficient!
3. Vegetables Secondly, parents can feed their dogs vegetables, and they will never eat them when they are sick. Usually food should also contain the ingredients of vegetables. Many vegetables are very rich in iron, such as black fungus, seaweed, hair salmon, shepherd's purse, black sesame, lotus root powder, etc. Vegetables are the most natural nutrients for humans, and for dogs, they are no exception.
