Dog moulting in spring
Spring It is the time of moulting. After a winter, the thick long hair begins to fall off. At this time, whether it is groomed by humans or scratched by the dog himself, a large amount of hair will fall off. Especially after the Spring Festival, you can see clumps of hair on the ground at home and in the kennel every day. It’s a normal psychological change, taking off your “winter clothes” to match the heat of summer. But if it falls too much and the skin is exposed, it is a skin disease. The lost hair should be combed and removed every day to prevent the lost hair from sticking to the body and causing felt (which is often said to be knotted). In addition, pay attention to keeping the skin clean and hygienic. Otherwise, the dirty skin will itch, and the dog will scratch or rub its body with its claws to relieve the itch. This will easily injure the skin and cause bacterial infection. Dirty skin will also cause itchiness. Provides a place for the growth of parasites, fungi, etc., causing skin diseases.
Dogs are in estrus in spring
Spring is also the season of estrus. In addition to growing pure breeds, attention should be paid to preventing unnecessary matings. Take a look at Shoujia's own dogs, and then breed them after finding a good breed. At this time, the female dogs in estrus should be controlled. First, to prevent missing matings, especially for purebred dogs, so as not to cause degeneration and cross-breeding of the offspring. Second, to seize the best breeding opportunities and prevent missed matings. For female dogs that are not prepared to breed, you may consider sterilization surgery to avoid adverse reactions before and after estrus. During the female dog's estrus period, the male dogs compete for the couple and fight with each other. Bites must be avoided and injuries must be dealt with immediately. To prevent bleeding, it is best to walk the dog in a safe place.
Spring deworming and vaccination
In spring, microorganisms and parasites also begin to move and grow, and infectious and parasitic diseases also begin. It begins to occur frequently. At this time, deworming and vaccination should be carried out immediately. Please note when vaccinating pets: only healthy pets can be vaccinated. A qualified pet doctor must perform a clinical physical examination on the pet before injecting vaccines for the pet, including body temperature, respiration, heartbeat rate, surface examination and medical history inquiry. When an owner takes his pet to the hospital for vaccination, if the doctor gives the injection without checking, there is a riskIt may cause accidents. Some pets appear to be healthy on the surface, but actually have hidden diseases in their bodies. After being vaccinated, they will become ill soon, which can be serious and even cause death. Therefore, any pet with a high body temperature or a weak body during the pre-injection physical examination does not need to be vaccinated for the time being, and will not be vaccinated until the body recovers or the disease is fully recovered.
Pets that have just been purchased, especially pets that have just been purchased from the market, may have been exposed to other sick pets and cannot be vaccinated as soon as possible. Preventive serum can be injected first. Preventive serum generally provides 2 weeks of immunity. In the past two weeks, preventive vaccinations will be carried out after the pet is relatively healthy and adapted to the new environment. Pets that have not reached vaccination age cannot be vaccinated. Generally, puppies must be over 40 days old and kittens must be over 60 days old to be vaccinated. After vaccination, as the immune system begins to react, symptoms such as fever, poor energy, loss of appetite, lethargy, etc. may occur. These are normal reactions and usually recover on their own in 1-3 days.
