Although there has always been a folk saying that dogs love to eat bones. But that's the last choice for dogs before they are domesticated by humans. The digestive function of domesticated dogs has changed, so for hard objects such as bones, although the digestive ability of dogs is stronger than that of humans, there is still a certain danger. Today, Xiaobian will talk about how to deal with dogs when they get stuck eating bones. Come and have a look.
So what should we do when the dog has been stuck by the bone? If it's usually just a slight choking. And when the bones are not big or sharp, dogs can usually squeeze out foreign bodies by vomiting.
However, if the dog can't vomit a foreign body on its own, because this situation is dangerous, parents are advised to send it to the doctor immediately. Let doctors take out foreign bodies from dogs through professional drugs and tools.
So in order to avoid the above tragedy, parents should pay attention to the following aspects when feeding dogs.
First of all, it is necessary to provide regular and quantitative food for dogs. In order to prevent the dog from gorging because of excessive hunger, resulting in foreign bodies blocking the esophagus.
In addition, when the dog is eating, try to choose a quiet place for it, so as to prevent it from choking when it is eating.
Secondly, never feed the dog some chickens, ducks and fish, these < strong > tiny < /strong > soft bones. Once it gets stuck in the dog's esophagus, it is difficult to take it out. Moreover, big bones that have been cooked for a long time are not suitable for dogs. The bones that have been cooked for a long time become very brittle, and they are easily bitten.
Finally, if parents want to give their dogs calcium by gnawing bones. It is suggested that it is safer to choose liquid calcium and calcium tablets. Moreover, excessive biting of hard bones will also make the dog's teeth degenerate prematurely, so that when he is old, it will be very difficult for his teeth to grind food.
In addition, after the dog has finished eating, if there is commotion, vomiting and choking, or if there is a refusal to eat, it is difficult to swallow and the expression is painful. It is likely that its esophagus is blocked by a sharp foreign body. Severe cases may also be accompanied by scratching the neck and coughing up blood. At this time, parents must send the dog to the pet hospital, and don't press it down with hard objects such as steamed bread at home. Once the foreign body is squeezed, it will penetrate deeper into the dog's body, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
