Many dog owners may be confused as to whether they will be infected with parasites if they raise their own dogs. Why do dogs have parasites? Next, let us learn some tips on deworming dogs.
1. External parasites
The main external parasites of dogs include fleas, lice, ticks, etc. Parasites can harm the health of puppies, absorb their nutrients, and can also infect people. Therefore, puppies should be dewormed regularly. Pet owners can use common and well-known professional drops on the market for deworming, with no special requirements. Be careful not to take a shower for 24 hours after deworming.
When deworming, let the dog lie on his back or stand, do not lie on his side to prevent dripping. Descend along the midline of the back, four to five points for large dogs and two to three points for small dogs. The first drops should be in the middle and back of the neck. When dripping, do not drip on the hair, but push the hair away and drip on the skin.
2. Internal deworming
The parasites in dogs mainly include roundworms, tapeworms, hookworms, Strongyloides faecalis, etc. Generally, deworming will start in the body in about 3 months. After six months, deworming will be carried out according to the specific situation of the puppy. Deworming is usually carried out every three months. You can choose a pet repellent such as Meow King Qingchong and feed it to your dog according to the instructions.
After deworming in the body, dogs will also experience some symptoms: vomiting, intestinal discomfort, diarrhea, anorexia, etc. Pet owners can feed some Wang Yizhi to help coordinate intestinal flora and relieve diarrhea.
3. Daily care
Under normal circumstances, pet owners do not often take their dogs to play in humid places. Regular bathing and cleaning of the dog's body can help reduce the growth of external parasites. In the daily diet, ensure a clean diet and avoid feeding raw meat and water to reduce the breeding of intestinal worms.
The above is all about whether raising dogs will be infected with parasites. I hope it can help everyone.
