If a dog has a fever, you can use medicines that are specifically used by dogs. Antipyretics taken by humans cannot be given to dogs, such as Bububu, Prataminophen, Chizi Antipyretic Suppository, or Tonlidine, Metamizole, etc. It doesn't matter, because some of these prescriptions contain acetaminophen, which can cause poisoning and death of dogs and cats. Do not blindly feed your dog medicine to avoid your dog being allergic to the medicine.
First of all, what needs to be determined is whether the dog is really hot. Usually, the normal dog’s body temperature is about 38℃ to 39℃. If the dog's body temperature reaches 39 or 5℃, it is considered a fever, and if it reaches 40.5℃, it is considered a high fever.
After a dog has a fever, a specialized canine antipyretic should be used. Parents who have experience may wish to purchase it at a pet pharmacy and feed it themselves. For parents who don’t know how to smell, when the dog has a fever, don’t blindly reduce the fever.
Because there are many infectious diseases and serious diseases such as meningitis, one of the symptoms is fever. If the fever is simply brought down, the inflammation in the body is not regulated, and the root cause of the disease cannot be solved, then the dog will fall into a dilemma of recurring high fever, and blindly reducing the fever will also affect the judgment of the pet doctor.
There are many articles on the Internet that recommend giving human drugs to dogs, but Goupu.com does not recommend this. Because there are many human prescriptions that, if taken improperly, can cause gastric bleeding and gastric perforation in dogs.
The best way is to take the dog to a pet hospital first to eliminate the possibility of serious diseases, then start corresponding antipyretic drugs and provide home care under the guidance of a pet doctor.
In addition to using antipyretics correctly under the guidance of a doctor, parents should also pay attention to physical conditioning of their dogs. You can use diluted alcohol to gently wipe the dog's belly, ears, and foot pads, or you can wrap an ice pack in a towel to help cool down the dog's belly. Moreover, do not cover the dog too thickly, otherwise it will affect the dog's heat dissipation and trigger high temperature convulsions.
When a dog is sick, his energy may be weak, his gastrointestinal digestion function may also be reduced, and he may have a loss of appetite. And often high fever, accompanied by vomiting, diarrhea and other conditions.
Therefore, when dogs have loss of appetite and other gastrointestinal abnormalities, parents should try to feed them on liquid food. For dogs that are unwilling to eat due to physical discomfort, parents should not be overly aggrieved. If home care is arranged for three days, the dog’s high fever still does not resolve quickly. Parents should take the dog to the pet hospital as soon as possible for admission treatment and careful examination. Meningitis and other malignant infections must be eliminated as soon as possible.
When feeding drugs to dogs, be sure to use drugs that are commonly used by dogs.
