Choose the right dog walking venue
Perhaps most of the owners will not spend much attention at the dog's feet, because except for the pruning of the soles of the feet and nails, there are not many issues we need to pay attention to. Indeed, under normal circumstances, there are few problems with dogs, but the foot is the most frequent and oldest position with the ground, so we should still pay more attention to it. After all, after the dog's foot is injured, it has a certain impact on their actions, and even affects the health of the dog.
1. Choose the right dog walking venue
The dog's own foot pads are actually very thick, so they can play a good protective role in the feet, and only in this way can they run quickly. Therefore, in general, we can rest assured that the general sandy road will not hurt the dog's feet, and it is more beneficial to the wear of the dog's nails. However, many roads are not as safe as we imagine. After all, we cannot guarantee that there will be no items that are harmful to dogs such as nails, broken glass, so these problems must be considered when choosing a walking site for the dogs.
Therefore, we usually choose the place where we are familiar with when taking a dog. The community gardens and small squares are good choices. The road is a more dangerous place. Not only does there be a lot of objects, but once the dogs are frightened, we lose control, and the dog may be injured by the car.
2. Time to deal with minor injuries
Even if we are usually careful, it is difficult to ensure that dogs will not be injured because of some accidents. Dogs are lively and moving, and it is inevitable to step on dangerous items. In case the dog is really injured, the first thing to do is not to panic, but to observe the dog's injury. Sometimes we will find that the dogs running highly are bloody with blood on the paws, but we do not know, and the severe excitement makes the dog forget the pain of the wound on the feet. If the wound is not large, it is just a slight scratching. The dog feels okay. Generally, there is no need to deal with it. We can rinse the wound for the dog with physiological saline, and then take simple disinfection measures.
If it is just a minor injury
Three, dog legs dare not need to pay more attention
If you find that the dog lifts one foot and does not dare to the ground, and only supports yourself with the other 3 legs, then the dog's feet must be injured, because the legs on the leg will cause them to have pain, so no no Dare to the ground. But the location of the injury is not necessarily on the soles of the feet. At this time, as a parent, you can't take it lightly. The most important thing is to figure out how the dog's injury is.
Some owners saw that the dog was injured, so they grabbed the injuries and looked at it carefully. This kind of heart -like love dog mood can be understood, but this reckless approach is not desirable. The foreign body that hurts the dog may still be in the wound. If the dog's wound is accidentally painful, some dogs will not be able to bite people, and parents will be injured. The correct treatment method is to call the dog over, a parent to soothe the dog and control the dog's head, making it unable to bite, and another person observe the wound of the foot. If there are no wounds on the surface, so most of the bones are damaged, it is best to go directly to the hospital to shoot a film. If there is a wound, first treat the wound simply, and then observe whether there are foreign bodies in the wound. If the foreign body is obvious, you can use the sister -in -law to carefully pinch it, and then bandage the wound with gauze. Then observe the dog's state. If so, you still need to be sent to the hospital for examination.
