सत्यम कुमार/भागलपुर: As the cold weather sets in, not only humans but also animals are at risk of falling ill. The most vulnerable are dog owners. During the winter days, dogs are prone to various illnesses. Speaking to Dr. Ashish Kumar, a veterinarian, he advised that special care should be taken for foreign breed dogs. Their clothing, food, and medication should be given on time. So let’s find out how to take care of our pets and keep them healthy.
Special Care Tips for Winter: According to Ashish Kumar, it is important to dress up dogs during the winter days. Specifically, avoid giving dogs cold water. Warm the water slightly and give it to them. Do not feed them stale food, especially any leftovers. The odor from stale food poses a danger of parvo. According to the doctor, parvo is fatal for dogs. First and foremost, make sure to get them vaccinated so that even if they get infected with parvo, it does not affect them. If your dog is vomiting blood or has blood in their stool, it may be a symptom of parvo. Consult a nearby doctor as soon as possible.
Avoid Using Heaters: Accidentally, do not use heaters to keep dogs warm during the cold days. Heaters cause dehydration in dogs. In winter days, water intake is already less, and using a heater can cause all the water to dry up. The dog becomes weak and vulnerable. Therefore, be cautious and avoid making such mistakes. Dr. Ashish also mentioned that dogs should be vaccinated within 45 days. Especially during the winter days, if dogs are given milk, make sure to deworm them so that there is no dirt in their stomach. Feeding the dog becomes easier.
In Short, it is crucial to take extra care of dogs during the winter days. Dress them up, give them warm water, avoid feeding them leftovers, and make sure they are vaccinated and dewormed. Avoid using heaters to keep them warm and consult a veterinarian if any symptoms of illness are observed. By following these tips, you can ensure the well-being of your beloved pets during the cold season.
