Chihuahuas have big eyes and are very cute, but colds are more commonplace, and people get sick, not to mention dogs! And we usually take some anti-inflammatory cold medicine when we have a cold. All right. What kind of medicine do Chihuahua dogs take for a cold? It also depends on the cause of their cold. If it is just a common cold, then it may be good to give them some Banlangen or anti-inflammatory drugs. If it is a viral cold, we cannot solve it by ourselves. .
【Cold Symptoms】 1. Not in good spirits, slumped, like to lie on one's stomach; (this seems to be the common manifestation of all discomfort)
2. Watery nose Snot; (note that it is watery, not purulent or colored)
3. Sneezing and coughing; (cough is very similar to canine distemper, canine parainfluenza, and bronchitis)
4. Conjunctival hyperemia, tearing, loss of appetite; (this is also similar to canine distemper)
5. Body temperature rises, generally 39~40C; (rectum in adult dogs The normal body temperature measured is 37.5~38.5;C, puppies are 38~39C)
[Treatment] 1. Cold Granule: I have not found the specific dosage, so I can only give you my experience. If your dog is very big, more than 80 pounds, you can follow the adult dosage. My dog at home is 30 pounds. Usually, half a bag is drunk every time, twice a day. If your dog is very small, a small spoon such as a Chihuahua is almost the same. Anyway, a mild medicine like Ganmao Granule is not a problem if it is a little more.
2. Antiviral oral liquid: Take my dog as a reference, take one at a time, twice a day.
3. Amoxicillin: 10~20 mg/kg (body weight), 2~3 times a day for 5 days.
Summary: The above methods are not necessarily suitable for all Chihuahua dogs. If the cold is serious, it is better to seek medical treatment in time to avoid delay!
