Specialized Dog (Definite Introduction)
Although we cannot know the physical condition of the dog through talking, but it is As long as we observe more, we will find that in many cases we can find some signs based on their living conditions. Just like dog poop, we can learn a lot of information through it. So let’s briefly talk about the problems caused by dog poop.
1. There are worms in dog poop: Common worms in dog poop include roundworms or pinworms, which are round and elongated in shape, much like white earthworms. When the insect body is removed, the color and appearance will be like a rubber band. Tapeworm is another relatively rare insect. Owners often only see tapeworm segments in their dog's poop, which are the size of white melon seeds. They can crawl, but the crawling speed is very slow. If you find crawling worms in your dog's feces, grab something and bring it to the doctor. This will give the doctor a basis and make the treatment process more effective.
2. Diarrhea: The most common cause of diarrhea in dogs is eating food indiscriminately, often causing watery diarrhea or muddy soft stools. This is a situation where the normal flora of the gastrointestinal tract has changed and gas-producing bacteria have grown in large numbers, resulting in faster gastrointestinal peristalsis and diarrhea.
3. Constipation: Occasionally, you will see a very painful poop in a dog. It takes a long time to squeeze out a small piece of hard poop. This is often a sign that the dog is constipated. The cause of constipation is often related to factors such as whether you absorb enough fiber, whether you eat bones, or whether there is something wrong with intestinal peristalsis.
4. Blood in the stool: Bloody stool can be divided into "bleeding from the upper digestive tract" or "bleeding from the lower digestive tract". These two situations are completely different. Upper gastrointestinal bleeding is often caused by gastric or duodenal ulcers. If it is upper gastrointestinal bleeding, it means bleeding in the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. The color and shape of the stool It will be sticky and black like tar. This is because a large amount of blood is digested by gastric juice and digestive enzymes, and the iron in the blood will be oxidized into black. Generally, it is best to seek medical attention immediately if this happens.
From this point of view, we can understand a lot of information just from poop, so we should develop the habit of observing more when raising dogs, so that we can raise good dogs. It's very useful.
