       Some parents responded that their pet dogs sometimes have weakness and convulsions. Yes, this is indeed worrying. Some time ago, my dog baby also had a similar situation. If you don't know these situations, let me share my experience with you!

        Generally speaking, there are three main reasons for dog limb weakness:

        1. Calcium deficiency       Parents, don’t underestimate this point, people need calcium supplements, and dogs need it too, and dogs absorb calcium much more than humans. It takes only seven months for a dog to grow up to an adult, and it can be seen that the demand for calcium of a dog is indeed several times that of a human. Dogs are provided with homemade dog food, so they can usually be supplemented with calcium in the third or fourth month. Larger dogs are often the most prone to calcium deficiency!

       2.Arthritis        If this disease has been diagnosed, then parents need to give the dog antibiotics, otherwise How you supplement calcium doesn't make any difference either. I don’t know if my friends know what drugs are included in antibiotics. They are also divided into many types, such as penicillin, ampicillin, benzathine penicillin or procaine penicillin. These are all options. If you inject analgin, the effect will be very good. Significantly!

       3. Lack of exercise        When the dog shows weakness, it is probably caused by lack of exercise, perhaps It is because he lacked exercise when he was young and his body was too fat, so he ran very hard. In the face of this situation, the only thing parents can do is to strengthen the dog's exercise, increase its exercise volume, and then feed it the right amount of food. Can!

       4. Canine distemper        canine distemper can also cause the dog to show symptoms of weakness in the limbs, and of course other symptoms , such as purulent nasal discharge, eye mucus, etc. For this reason, parents should pay special attention!

       The above are several reasons for the dog's weakness and twitching. This symptom is caused by calcium deficiency, so the owner can usually give the dog more calcium. If it is because of canine distemper, the dog should be taken to a doctor in time. If it is caused by arthritis, it should be given to the dog. Dogs are taking antibiotics!

        1. Strengthen movement       If the dog is due to lack of exercise, then the owner can only strengthen the dog's exercise, make a detailed plan, take the dog out for a walk every day, accompany it to do some outdoor sports, parents also You can think of some feasible ways to increase the enthusiasm of your dog to exercise. In short, parents need to work hard!

       2. Nutritional supplements        If the dog is still energetic, but swaying when running, then It may be caused by calcium deficiency. At this time, parents must take calcium tablets for dogs in time. Not only that, but also supplemented with trace elements, which will help the development of dogs bones!

       3.Other        The phenomenon of limb weakness and twitching in dogs is actually caused by many reasons. If it is the cause of calcium deficiency, then it is not only necessary to supplement calcium, but also calcium gluconate oral liquid for dogs; it may also be because of being locked for too long, standing unsteady, and weak limbs, but this There are very few cases. Finally, families should take note and vaccinate their dogs when they are healthy!
