Pekingese dogs (definite introduction)
In the hot summer, especially in hot weather, the Pekingese will have difficulty breathing and may even die. Owners of Pekingese dogs should pay attention to whether the windows at home are open every day to ensure smooth air flow and allow the dog to breathe smoothly.
Knowledge about protecting Pekingese dogs
Generally do not let it roam under direct sunlight. If necessary, it should be cooled down or moved to a ventilated and cold place. In the feeding and control of Pekingese dogs, sufficient nutrition must be provided. Pay attention to your dog’s diet every day.
In the feeding and control of Pekingese dogs, sufficient nutrition must be provided. In addition to feeding an appropriate amount of vegetables, bread, cakes and other vegetarian foods every day, you also need to feed 150-250 grams of lean meat once in the morning and afternoon. It’s also okay to feed shrimps and fish. In a vegetarian diet, it is best to add some ground milk powder, calcium powder and multivitamins. At the same time, you should also give it some cold drinks.
A dog is an animal, and it also needs a certain amount of circulation to promote blood flow and metabolism. Therefore, it is best to wear it when going shopping or strolling in the garden.
Paying attention to cleanliness and hygiene is also a key part of raising a good Pekingese dog. Dry clean it once every 5-10 days; bathe it every 3-4 months; in summer, bathe it every other week. This kind of dog's hair is long and thick, so it needs to be combed once a day. Otherwise, it will tangle into knots. It is more suitable to sprinkle some combing powder or hair conditioner before combing. In general, care should be taken not to mix with other dogs to prevent other dogs from fighting, otherwise they will easily become coated and cause defects in appearance.
Pekingese have a weak ability to absorb calcium and should supplement enough calcium. Simply feeding bones is not enough. Calcium tablets containing vitamins A and D should be fed daily. You should avoid feeding dog food that is too high in offal and offal, and don’t feed too much liver. Liver is rich in vitamin A, which is an essential vitamin for the body. However, eating too much vitamin A can also cause poisoning. Too much vitamin A in the body will inhibit the absorption and activation of vitamin D. Therefore, eating too much food rich in vitamin A for a long time will inevitably lead to the loss of vitamin D in the body. Lack of vitamin D plays a key role in the absorption of calcium and the accumulation of calcium in bones. Lack of vitamin D will lead to calcium deficiency. An imbalance in the ratio of calcium to phosphorus in the liver is also a key factor causing calcium deficiency. Calcium deficiencyIt can cause osteoporosis, bone hyperplasia, rickets and abnormal and ineffective tooth development. The above symptoms are a gradual process, and it is often too late when you discover them.
If Pekingese dogs are deficient in calcium, they should pay attention to calcium and vitamin D in their food. If the dog takes liver as its main food, it is necessary to stop feeding liver immediately and eat dog food instead, otherwise it will seriously affect the dog's absorption of calcium. Exercise more outdoors. Ultraviolet rays can transfer subcutaneous ergosterol to endogenous vitamin D, which is beneficial for calcium absorption. After dredging, it is best to let the dog drink some glucose water (1-2 tablespoons of glucose powder, add an appropriate amount of purified water). Even those who have recovered should pay attention to calcium supplementation and reduce the amount of large-scale exercise such as running, jumping, etc. The left and right floors must be held flat by the owner. It is strictly forbidden to hold the dog's armpits with both hands and then lift it upright. In addition, you should take your Pekingese to the pet hospital for regular checkups and X-rays to prevent the dog from relapsing.
Protection of Pekingese’s eyes
Compared with other breeds, Pekingese has many unique characteristics, and owners should pay special attention to them when taking care of them. For example, Pekingese is a broad-faced, flat-nosed dog that is prone to hypoxia. Hot weather often causes difficulty breathing. Therefore, you should pay attention to sun protection in hot weather to avoid heatstroke. Another example is that Pekingese eyeballs are large, exposed, and exposed to the outside world, and are prone to trauma and bacteria. Also, Pekingese is a long-haired dog with very rich hair, so it should be combed once a day, etc. Here I would like to talk to you about the most prone to problems in Beijing and Pakistan - the care of the eyes.
The eyes are the window to the spirit, and dogs are no different. The eyes of a strong dog are smart, translucent, energetic, and free of any abnormality. Pekingese dogs have large eyeballs and a lot of exposure. The more rare problems mainly include very special penetration, trauma and trichiasis.
If you find that your dog often scratches his eyes or keeps blinking, it may be caused by eye problems and pain. If it is caused by foreign matter entering the eyes, you can use eyewash to wipe it out - open its eyes, soak the linen bandage in eyewash, and then wipe the eyes. The symptom of eye trauma is that one of the dog's eyes suddenly feels very painful or cannot be opened. You should pay attention to look for obvious foreign objects, especially glass particles, etc., and then carefully remove them. You can also clean its eyes with clean boiling water to flush away the foreign objects. Do not leave your dog in an environment that is too transparent. Try to take it to see a doctor, and avoid rubbing the injured eye with its paws or rubbing it with objects.
Pekingese dogs may also have trichiasis in their eyes, that is, inverted eyelashes, irritating the eyeballs, causing eye pain and redness, hazy vision, conjunctival inflammation, and corneal turbidity. These defects can cause serious injury or even blindness. A qualified veterinarian should be asked to perform surgery to remove part of the eyelids (similar to double eyelid surgery in humans). If the surgery is unsuccessful, the eyelids will become too small and the eyeballs will become more exposed. Of course, in addition to surgical treatment, electrolysis can also be used to remove it.
The abnormality of Beijing's eyes: Extraordinary infiltration is the most common. Eye infiltration, that is, epiphora, is the most common symptom of eye disease. AvailableWash your eyes with 2% boric acid water, once a day or every other day. Pekingese is a short-nosed dog, and its eyes are prone to bulging and nasolacrimal duct obstruction, which causes two long brown marks to appear on the part of its eyes near the nose. If there is no abnormality in the eyes, just cut off the brown hair frequently and wipe it; but if the situation is serious, please see a doctor quickly and do not take medication at will. Long-term use of certain steroid-containing eye drops can easily lead to glaucoma, so be warned.
Pekingese have large eyeballs and abundant lacrimal gland penetration. A large amount of tears often flow out from the inner corners of the eyes, which is not effective in contaminating the coat. Check the eyes frequently. Excessive watery eyes, too red eyeballs, and "triple eyelids" appearing at the corners of the eyes (showing that the eyelids are swollen) are all signs of disease, and you should seek medical attention immediately. When a dog suffers from certain infectious diseases (such as canine distemper, etc.), especially eye diseases, it often causes redness and swelling of the eyelids, and a large amount of mucus accumulates in the corners of the eyes. While intensifying the treatment of other diseases, 2% boric acid cotton balls ( You can also use cold water) and gently wipe it from the inner corner of the eye outwards. Do not wipe it back and forth on the eyes. Remember not to use cotton balls, because cotton wool can easily stick to the eyes, and do not stab them with hard objects such as fingers or cotton swabs. Eye. After wiping, instill eye drops or ointment to eliminate inflammation. Pay attention when instilling eye drops, place your hands on the dog's head to avoid shaking, and apply the eye drops on the back and top. Applicator and eye maintenance level.
If the permeate is contaminated or purulent (sticky, discolored), most of the time it will be felt by the eyes. When this happens, you should pay attention: the hair around the dog's eyes should not be tangled. It is best to cut or shave the hair around the dog's eyes first, otherwise the permeate will overflow and cause the hair to stick, which will definitely cause For eye inflammation, it is recommended that you first use medical gauze dipped in pet eye drops or physiological saline to clean the area around the eyes, including the eyes, and then send them to the hospital immediately.
