Akita dogs (definite introduction)
Dog lovers who raise Akita dogs, it is okay if they occasionally feed their dogs some animal offal to satisfy their appetite. However, if they are fed for a long time and even cause the dogs to obtain important food, over time, it will really affect the Akita dogs. Strong, the editor will tell you the disadvantages of Akita dogs eating offal.
1. Easily get internal heat: Eating too much liver can easily lead to internal heat, calcium deficiency and vitamin A poisoning. Akita dogs can easily get internal heat if they eat too much. For example, brown tears in the eyes make the hair around the eyes look unclean.
2. Inhibit the absorption of calcium:Chicken liver or other visceral foods are rich in phosphorus but low in calcium, and phosphorus will inhibit the absorption of calcium. Akita dogs that have been eating liver as their main food for a long time will suffer from calcium deficiency. Calcium deficiency causes Akita dogs, especially Pekingese dogs, to suffer from symptoms such as intervertebral disc hyperplasia or hindquarter paralysis, urinary and fecal incontinence, and hind leg muscle atrophy. Cases show that some Akita dogs died of poisoning due to excessive accumulation of vitamin A in the body due to long-term eating of liver. So if your Akita often eats liver, it not only needs calcium supplements.
A certain amount of vitamin D should also be supplemented, so that vitamin D and A can combine to promote the elimination of A. However, no matter what method is used, it is not as healthy and convenient as directly interfering with Akita dogs to eat less liver.
Both Akita dogs and humans are mammals, and the factors in the internal organs that are not good for humans are generally not good for dogs. The most excessive thing is cholesterol. Especially for Akita dogs who are originally obese and some Akita dogs with "three highs", there are more disadvantages of eating offal.
Feeding Akita dogs a large amount of offal on a regular basis will definitely aggravate the condition of Akita dogs.
