How to give medicine to dogs

If the dog is sick, it definitely needs to take medicine. If the pill is too big, he can cut it into small pieces and feed it directly. If the dog refuses to take the medicine, it can be mixed into the dog's daily diet. Hide the pills in the food. You can put the pills in steamed balls, or cut a piece of meat and roll it up.

You can give the dog something to avoid dry throat, then gently open the dog's mouth and control the dog's upper and lower jaws with your hands. Put the pill behind the dog's tongue. Shut its mouth until it swallows the pill. At this time, you can gently push the dog's throat down with your hand, that is, when the dog looks up, gently wipe the throat with your other hand and swallow it in a few seconds. Be careful not to cover your nose.

Living habits:

Dogs are carnivores. When feeding, animal protein should be prepared in the feed, supplemented by vegetarian ingredients to ensure the normal development and health of dogs. Dogs sometimes eat grass, but they eat very little and occasionally spit it out. Dogs eat grass not to satisfy their hunger, but to clear their stomachs, mainly because of their unique gastrointestinal structure.

The dog's stomach is very big, accounting for about 2/3 of the abdominal cavity, but its intestines are very short, accounting for about13 of the abdominal cavity. Therefore, dogs basically use their stomachs to digest food and absorb nutrients. It is easy to digest meat food, and it is difficult to digest things with "tendons" such as leaves and grass.

Puppies and old dogs sleep longer, while puppies and strong dogs sleep shorter. Dogs are generally in a shallow sleep state, and they can wake up with a little movement, but there are also deep sleeps. When sleeping lightly, the dog is prone, with his head resting between his two front paws, often with one ear close to the ground. Dogs are not easy to wake up after a deep sleep, and sometimes they talk in their dreams, such as barking and moaning, accompanied by convulsions of limbs and shaking of their heads and ears.
