The other is anorexia, which is the initial symptom of the disease, often accompanied by other symptoms, such as fever, vomiting, diarrhea, cough, abdominal pain and so on. It is found in the early stage of infectious diseases such as overeating, stomatitis, dental diseases, gastrointestinal diseases, canine fever, parvovirus enteritis, coronavirus, rotavirus and salmonella.
However, the reasons for anorexia in dogs are as follows:
1. Insufficient exercise:
If the dog is really anorexic, that is, eating a few mouthfuls of dog food every day, barely walking the bottom line of nutrition to ensure that he can lose weight, then the owner should start to pay attention. After excluding the factor that the dog can't eat due to illness, the owner should first think of whether the dog has been under-exercised recently. For dogs, eating before adulthood may be more important, and playing after adulthood may be more important, especially for large dogs. When the dog becomes an adult, if the owner continues to provide exercise according to the puppy, the dog will naturally be very dissatisfied. Without enough exercise, dogs naturally don't need food. They eat a few mouthfuls every day to gain life-sustaining energy.
2. Weather changes:
Weather changes will make dogs anorexia. In a hot and humid climate, owners often see their dogs just eating their favorite flavor. Don't touch "dry goods" such as dog food. In fact, the weather is too hot for dogs to have a strong desire to eat. But that doesn't mean that dogs can stop eating. Strictly speaking, it just means that dogs don't intend to eat in a hot environment.
3 in a bad mood:
Dogs don't like to eat much when they are depressed. In a dog with a strong personality, "sadness" may not affect eating, but "anger" can easily become the root of anorexia or even hunger strike. It can be said that dogs are typical emotions that determine appetite! In particular, dogs raised in cities nowadays can eat and drink without worry, and it is completely understandable to play with small emotions when they are in a bad mood. If the owner beats and scolds the dog for no reason for a period of time, or neglects the dog too much, it will directly affect the dog's appetite over time.
