1. The secret of color (from the color of poop to know whether the dog is healthy)

1. Red poop: The owner must first check whether the dog is caused by anal The poop caused by the split is bloody, if not, it is likely to be bleeding from the lower gastrointestinal tract of the dog.

2. Orange poo: When a dog poop contains orange scum, or part of the poop is orange, it is likely due to poor digestion, resulting in the food not being fully absorbed.

3. Yellow poop: The color of poop at this time is relatively healthy, and it can be judged that the food the dog eats is high in carbohydrates. If the poop is dark yellow in color, it may also be caused by the destruction of a large number of red blood cells in the dog's body.

4. Gray-white stool: If the stool is white clay-like color, it may be due to jaundice or bile duct obstruction caused by stones, tumors, roundworms, etc., so that biliflavin cannot be excreted casually.

5. Brown poop: The color of healthy poop, but the food the dog eats is high in fat, so the intake of fat should be reduced in moderation.

4. Inlaid poop: Undigested things such as corn are embedded in the poop. Reason: The dog eats food that cannot be digested, because some foods are not suitable for the dog's stomach.

5. Small ball-shaped stools: one by one, the stools are small and hard, and only once every 2-3 days. Reason: Insufficient drinking water or improper diet can cause the dog to have dry stools and even difficulty in defecation.
