The dog's appetite is not just for growing up, it may be in a state of illness! Although dogs always eat voraciously when eating, they are not completely uncontrollable. Most dogs can still manage their mouths well, and when they are full, they will walk away by themselves. So we can also roughly judge how much food can meet the needs of the dog. The dog's appetite will also increase or decrease according to the increase in exercise and changes in physical condition, but it will not increase or decrease greatly in the long run. If such a problem really occurs, it is best to check the dog's physical condition.
In addition, if the dog shows strong possessiveness of food, it is so hostile, provocative, and roaring towards the people or companions around him during the meal. This may also be a symptom of polyepitations.
Zoologist Nade found that when a dog doesn't eat, he keeps calling out food from the shoveler and goes out to eat. Even though the dog has been fed several times, the dog continues to show how he wants food.
The dog's appetite increases greatly, not just to grow up. It may be in a state of illness. If the shoveler forces the dog to not feed, the dog's mood will become very depressed and irritable, and even bite the carpet and pillows at home, mainly for destruction. The contents of
are easy to understand, and it will start immediately without further ado.
Don't worry, let's first know what the causes are, and prescribe the right medicine (key point)
Pay attention! Notice!
Usually the causes of this type of disease are complex, and shovelers cannot directly summarize other possibilities by grasping one cause.
Therefore, zoologists will divide this into two situations, one is caused by psychological problems, and the other is likely to be a physiological disease. Let's take a look at the differences between these two.
There are many factors that can cause dogs to become psychologically dependent on food. If the dog was adopted before being in an environment where food was needed, it could be due to old habits. If there are many dogs in the house, out of survival instinct, the dog will also engage in food grabbing. In addition, dogs' aging can also cause polyepitations. Although this is surprising, in fact, as dogs continue to age, they will naturally become dependent on food.
Animal nutritionist Helen found that even if the dog keeps eating and has a bigger appetite, its weight will still drop and symptoms of diarrhea will appear. Sometimes, dogs will eat some inexplicable things, which will develop pica in severe cases. This may be caused by stomach and intestinal problems. Indigestion and stomach dehydration will cause the dog's nutritional absorption to fail and its weight will drop. Stomach discomfort can also cause dogs to eat something strange.
The symptoms of this disease are generally caused by an increase in the appetite of the dog, accompanied by an increase in water and urination, and some dogs may experience coughing. This condition can only be detected by a professional veterinarian, otherwise the shovelers cannot determine whether the dog has this disease.
When checking for Cushing's syndrome, doctors will use a series of tests to confirm whether the pet has this type of disease, such as "corticotropin (ACTH) stimulation test" and blood tests.
It is worth mentioning that there are several different breeds of dogs that need special attention. They have a higher probability of Cushing's syndrome: such as Poodles, Dachshunds, Boston Terriers and Beagles.
However, even if a dog suffers from this disease, you don’t have to be overly nervous, because this is just a very common disease for current technology. As long as the drug is treated, the sick dog will be cured soon.
Judging from the symptoms of canine diabetes, diabetes is characterized by excessive thirst, weight loss and increased urination. Usually, dogs with diabetes can increase blood sugar due to insufficient insulin production, resulting in increased appetite.
Although a few dogs eat less due to diabetes, the data show that diabetes can also increase appetite and increase weight.
Due to dogs' diabetes, a very difficult situation may occur: multiple dog excrement, vomit and urine will be found in the room.
Dogs of any breed may develop diabetes, but smaller Schnauzers, standard Schnauzers, Poodles, Australian Terriers, Spiders, Bichon Fries, Samoyed and Kissang are more likely to develop diabetes than other breeds.
In addition, genetic factors can also increase the probability of diabetes in dogs.
Center for Disease Control defines the term parasite as "an organism that lives on a host organism, obtains food from its host or at its cost." Parasites are generally fleas or ticks, and can also be in vivo parasites such as hookworms, roundworms, tapeworms, or non-worm parasites such as coccidiosis, flagellaria, and spirochetes. Dogs can get parasites in a variety of ways. Sometimes, when puppies are breastfeeded in female dogs, they have a certain risk of getting infected with parasites.
There is another situation when shovelers must know that adult dogs accidentally lick the parasite's eggs outdoors, and the parasite is taken into the body and enter the digestive system.
Roundworms, whipworms and tapeworms are the main insects that increase their appetite in dogs, leading to an increasing malnutrition in dogs.
So what should I do if a dog is suffering from polyepitations?
No need to worry too much.
First, the shovelers can briefly analyze what causes the dog.
If there are multiple pets at home, the dog needs to be psychologically soothed and adjusted for the dog's polyaceae and feed separately, so that the dog can gradually adapt and realize that it is not threatened when it eats.
If the dog is getting old, a special veterinarian may need to use drugs and other means to help the dog improve its condition..
If the shoveler finds that the dog is overeating, it is recommended to go to the veterinarian for blood tests and urine analysis to diagnose whether it is due to diabetes.
In addition, regular visits to the veterinarian actually have another advantage, which is that it can help the dog prevent parasites in the body. The veterinarian will provide dogs with antiworming agents to help the dog recover.
In life, we may not be able to avoid dogs suffering from some diseases, but we can protect the health of dogs through some preventive means.
For example, to prevent parasite growth, shovelers need to regularly perform parasite control for dogs. Regularly perform drugs to kill insects in the body. If polyepitations are caused by incorrect feeding habits, you can prevent persistent symptoms associated with the disease by adjusting the feeding steps of your dog to avoid overeating. Regular examinations are the key point. Once the dog experiences discomfort symptoms, it is necessary to conduct some medical examinations on it. After all, the consequences of such diseases as diabetes and Cushing syndrome are unimaginable.
