As the pet health care industry becomes more proficient, pets are able to live longer life even if they should contact diseases like diabetes. More manageable than ever before, diabetes in dogs can be treated and control with medication and most importantly a properly control diet.
A dog’s sense of smell is known to be acute, but don’t discount his sense of hearing! A dog's hearing is crucial, and if he develops infections or can't hear properly, you not only deprive him of all the delicious sounds in your house and neighborhood but you prevent him communicating properly with other dogs too.
One of the more common problems plaguing dogs is getting an eye infection. Your dog’s eyes are delicate organs and adequate attention should be paid to cleaning and caring for his eyes. Although lids, lashes and tears are natural forms of protection, they are sometimes not adequate against the dust and dirt that can get into your dog's eyes.
Dental problems can develop from puppy-hood and it is your responsibility to help him maintain a proper dental regime. This will help your dog retain his teeth as he advances into old age. Regular dental check-ups are crucial for your dog’s health.
Diarrhoea or diarrhea and vomiting are common occurrences among pooches. However, a single episode of diarrhoea or vomiting isn't something to be overly concerned about. You usually discover that your hungry hound has just wolfed down something that he shouldn't have eaten and now he's paying the price by regurgitating. Diarrhea occurs when your dog’s body attempts to process the food quickly just to be rid of it.
