Dog
In spring, all trees recover, and cats and dogs also enter an active estrus period. Diseases due to seasonal changes may affect their health. Owners need to care for pets carefully, prevent diseases, and avoid accidents such as pet loss, fighting, and wounding caused by estrus.
1. Deworming is a top priority.
The weather is warm in spring, and fleas and dust mites are also active. Your top priority is to clean and deinsectize your pets. Pets may be infected with internal or external parasites.
You need to take your pet to the animal hospital to get an insect injection or take an insect repellent to get rid of parasites in your body, so as not to get sick. Extracorporeal parasites include fleas, mites, ticks, lice, etc., mostly caused by external contact. Once pets have fleas, it is difficult to cure them. Therefore, before these parasites start to move, it is necessary to thoroughly clean and disinfect the pet's nest and surrounding environment and keep them clean.
2. Symptoms of infection
Itching caused by fleas usually occurs on the back and tail of pets.
Once you find that the dog always scratches, rubs, licks or bites the itchy part, which causes hair loss, skin redness and eczema and other symptoms, there are many cinder-like black spots at the hair root of the cat. Be sure to take him to the vet as soon as possible, make a timely diagnosis and treat him as soon as possible.
3. Daily protection
Usually, the owner must prepare all kinds of cleaning supplies, such as long-acting drugs or shower gel to prevent ectoparasites, and do more cleaning for pets. Not only should the pets be cleaned, but also the places where pets move and rest should be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected.
At the turn of spring and summer, some pets who are allergic to pollen and grass seeds will have symptoms of skin allergy. Pets usually scratch or rub their bellies on the ground or furniture because they can't stand itching. When you find that your pet has such symptoms, you must take it to the pet hospital immediately, because if you let it scratch for a long time, it will cause skin infection. During treatment, pets can be injected with antiallergic injection or take antiallergic tablets. Although antiallergic injection can alleviate this kind of discomfort of pets, if there are many allergies, you should have a careful physical examination to find out the allergens and avoid re-exposure to the substances causing allergies.
When we change our winter clothes to show off our spring clothes, pets also change their fur in spring. Their fur will be changed from warm fur in winter to fur that is easier to dissipate heat in summer. Generally speaking, the process of hair changing takes several weeks to complete. At this time, it is necessary for the owner to comb off the shed hair with a comb or brush every day, so as to promote the blood circulation of pet skin and make the hair changing process smoother.
