        How long can a Pomeranian live with kidney failure? Many parents should have heard I have experienced renal failure in Pomeranian dogs. For renal failure, everyone should think that this is a terminal illness, and basically it cannot be cured. Of course, kidney failure is a very serious disease, but dogs can survive for a long time if everyone treats and takes care of them properly.

        What is kidney failure? Parents should first understand this disease. The so-called kidney failure in dogs is actually a decrease in the function of the kidneys in dogs. There are many causes, mainly including the dog's own ischemia, including dehydration, and renal vascular abnormalities (eg, vascular torsion, embolism, and infarction). And nephrotoxic substances, including endogenous toxins, exogenous toxins and drugs. There are also primary kidney diseases, including infectious (leptospirosis, pyelonephritis, canine infectious hepatitis, etc.), immune-mediated diseases (acute glomerulonephritis, systemic lupus erythematosus), tumors (lymphoma) .

      Generally speaking, the renal failure of the Pomeranian at home is generally related to three reasons: genetics, poisoning and infectious diseases. If the Pomeranian's parents have renal failure, then the puppies will have a high probability of inheriting it, followed by food poisoning, drugs, etc. Parents will also be very curious, how long can a Pomeranian live with kidney failure? However, this should be related to the quality of the treatment and the quality of care. If the owner treats actively and steadily, and the Pomeranian's original physical fitness is good, pay attention to the dog's diet, such as eating prescription food. Of course, also pay attention to controlling the dog's weight and exercise intensity, then it will greatly prolong the survival period of Pomeranian renal failure. As long as it is properly cared for, Pomeranian can still accompany us for a long time.

        In fact, what I don’t want to see is that many parents hear that dogs have kidney failure, and feel that the cost of treatment is relatively high, and it may not be possible after treatment. It will be cured, and parents will choose to abandon the dog. This is undoubtedly a stab at the dog's fragile body, which is too pitiful. So I appeal to everyone to help dogs treat diseases as much as possible.
