No matter which link dogs are, they should be supplemented with calcium and zinc. If they lack calcium, it will damage their hair. How to judge whether a dog is calcium deficient? Dogs show the following eight kinds of "calcium deficiency" signals, and the shovel officer should immediately give them calcium and zinc supplements. Look at the dog at home.
Signal 1, loss of appetite
In the early stage, poor appetite, poor digestion, eating indiscriminately, slowly slimming down and slow growth and development.
Dogs with calcium deficiency will damage their appetite and are very prone to problems such as indigestion and slow weight loss. Therefore, when the dog's appetite drops, we should not only fully consider whether it has bugs, diseases and other reasons, but also consider whether you have never helped it to supplement calcium.
Signal 2, ear collapse
Dogs with ears, such as Corky and Fadou, have no ears during their development, and most of them are caused by calcium deficiency. Naturally, it may also be due to poor genetics and dog breeds. However, if you find that the ears that should be standing are slow to move, remember to supplement calcium.
Signal 3, o or x leg
Calcium deficiency in dogs can lead to limb deformation and X-shaped or O-shaped legs. The dog's toes will be separated due to calcium deficiency, and it can be clearly felt that the dog's unsteady walking is caused by the unstable landing of its feet, and the dog's leg joints are obviously deformed and the legs are twisted.
Signal 4, muscle weakness
Dogs with calcium deficiency will be unwilling to walk, even if they walk and exercise, they will obviously feel tired, and in more serious cases, they will often twitch or have fracture problems. Puppies and newly born bitches are more likely.
Signal 5, dog hair is dull.
Everyone knows that dogs usually shed their hair twice a year, and friends who have owned dogs also know that dogs shed their hair all year round, especially puppies, more frequently. If the dog is short of calcium, it will have a great influence on molting. This dog's Mao Mao looks dark and hairy!
Signal 6, double row of teeth or tooth loss
If the dog lacks calcium when changing teeth, the deciduous teeth will grow slowly, which will lead to the failure of deciduous teeth to fall off in time and the phenomenon of double row of teeth will appear. If dogs lack calcium in adulthood, they are often prone to various dental diseases, such as gingivitis. Calcium deficiency in dogs can lead to failure of primary teeth and slow growth of permanent teeth, which is very prone to double row of teeth. Most of these situations happen to small and medium-sized dogs like Teddy dogs. During the period of changing teeth, dogs should not only be shown snacks such as molar toys and dried chicken, but also remember to supplement calcium and zinc.
Signal 7, abnormal bone growth.
Dogs with calcium deficiency will get sore slowly. Dogs of the same breed and age, the one lacking calcium looks shorter. Not only will it endanger the growth and development of dogs, but it is also very prone to human skeletal problems such as joint deformation or O-legs.
Calcium deficiency in dogs is not terrible. Owners should also pay attention to giving dogs some calcium tablets, such as "greedy but not greasy calcium tablets", which can help dogs to supplement calcium and zinc reasonably and deal with calcium deficiency.
Signal eight, poor spirit
Dogs not only eat less after calcium deficiency, but also become worse mentally. They love to sleep all day and don't even play their favorite games.
