Use the link to join our telegram group https:///CanineEducation . De hydration and Overheating in dogs Dehydration and over heating could be serious if left untreated. Recognising early warning signs is important to the health of ur dog Dehydration This is a process where body fluids is excessively lost. Dehydration involves the loss of water and depletion of electrolytes, which include some essential minerals. It could be caused by illness or lack of availability of water. Signs of a dehydrated dog include sunken eyes, dry mouth, gums and nose. Poor skin elasticity is another dehydration symptom, which u can test by gently pulling up on the skin at the back of ur dog’s neck. If the skin doesn’t immediately spring back to its normal position, ur dog may be dehydrated. The longer it takes for the skin to return to its normal position, the more severe the dehydration. Another test u can perform at home is called capillary refill time. Press ur finger against ur dog's gums until they turn white, then remove it. If the gums don’t regain color immediately, ur dog could be dehydrated. Since untreated dehydration can lead to organ failure and death, seek immediate vet attention if dehydration is suspected. Depending on the severity, ur vet may suggest water with electrolyte products. In extreme cases, intravenous fluids will be administered to replenish ur dog's fluids. Overheating Heat-related dog conditions can also become life-threatening without immediate treatment. Overheated dogs can suffer heat exhaustion, heat stroke or sudden death from cardiac arrhythmias. Panting, followed by disorientation and fast, noisy breathing could signal overheating. Other possible signs: Collapsing or convulsing, bright red or blue gums, vomiting and diarrhea. Plz when ur travelling long distance with ur dog in the car watch out for over heating. Dont walk ur dog under hot sun. These situations can make a dog become dangerously hot, u should watch ur dog closely for overheating signs. If you suspect ur dog is overheated, wet him with cool water before heading to the vet. ur vet may apply alcohol to the ears, foot pads and groin to safely lower the temperature, as well as administer cool IV fluids. For serious overheating, ur dog may need a breathing tube and artificial ventilation. Simple precautions can ward off dehydration and overheating. To help prevent dehydration, offer dogs water at least once every two hours. Avoid keeping them in hot cages. Let their houses be well ventilated. Avoid walking them under the sun like i said ealier. help ur dog beat the heat by encouraging resting and drinking at his leisure.

Forreellinc: Lol, thanks, i hope so, but she is beginning to eat up gradually, just dont knw what combination of meals i should give to her(home made). |
Re: Need Help On What To Feed My Caucasian Shepard For Weight Gain. by IamAnderson(m): 7:25pm On Mar 07, 2019 |
Gprince19:thanks diamond puppy food, egg, chicken, fish, rice and multivitamins |
Re: Need Help On What To Feed My Caucasian Shepard For Weight Gain. by IamAnderson(m): 7:33pm On Mar 07, 2019 |
Gprince19:don't go into home made meals at this age except you're sure you can make the meal balanced. I did the same thing with my dog at that age and one of his legs became smaller and weaker than the others. at this age you're meant to feed them balanced rich meals so I think you should keep giving her puppy food till she grows pass this stage. her growth will be very rapid at this stage so she needs to eats good food to balance her growth, in three months time you won't even recognise your dog again. |

Re: Need Help On What To Feed My Caucasian Shepard For Weight Gain. by IamAnderson(m): 9:12am On Mar 08, 2019 |
Gprince19:I give him one egg everyday... I'm not sure if 2 eggs a day is a good idea, you know eggs are high in cholesterol and CO's are prone to having weight issues. to keep it safe I give him 1 egg a day |
Re: Need Help On What To Feed My Caucasian Shepard For Weight Gain. by IamAnderson(m): 9:16am On Mar 08, 2019 |
Gprince19:lol yeah they grow way faster than rott so if you don't feed them nutritious food at this puppy stage they'll start having growth issues. don't worry you'll see how big your pup will be 3 months from now |
Re: Need Help On What To Feed My Caucasian Shepard For Weight Gain. by Gprince19(m): 6:48pm On Mar 08, 2019 |
IamAnderson: Ok, i will stick to one egg daily. |
Re: Need Help On What To Feed My Caucasian Shepard For Weight Gain. by Gprince19(m): 6:53pm On Mar 08, 2019 |

IamAnderson:My dog rejects diamond naturals puppy food even when I mix it with k9 replacement puppy milk. |
Re: Need Help On What To Feed My Caucasian Shepard For Weight Gain. by IamAnderson(m): 8:08am On Mar 19, 2019 |
Gprince19:I took the dog to a vet and the vet administered injections on the dogs limbs and back(I can't really remember the name of the drug he gave him). I also moved the dog back to processed food and administered calcium supplements everyday(even till now). the injections were given twice(3 days spacing) and also I made the dog exercise it's legs on sand (don't let the dog walk on tiles or strong surfaces during this period, also don't let the dog jump, the dog should rest it's legs during the healing phase because it's very painful...my dog was crying for some days). the leg got corrected within 2 weeks+...I hope it works for you too |
Re: Need Help On What To Feed My Caucasian Shepard For Weight Gain. by IamAnderson(m): 8:13am On Mar 19, 2019 |
Gprince19:the cause of this thing is malnutrition, CO's grow very fast so they need a lot of nutrients to grow steadily, if their food is lacking anything at this stage it'll affect them. that's why processed food or at least a balanced home cooked meal is best. my dog is on puppy food at 7months and we haven't had any issues since then, tell him to buy calcium supplements for the dog and give 2 daily (depends on the dog's age tho, if the dog is above 4months then give 2). it'll help prevent bone problems during the dog's growth |
Re: Need Help On What To Feed My Caucasian Shepard For Weight Gain. by IamAnderson(m): 8:15am On Mar 19, 2019 |
1000angstroms:it happens, try introducing the food slowly and also try to make it similar to what the dog was eating before |
Re: Need Help On What To Feed My Caucasian Shepard For Weight Gain. by Gprince19(m): 2:18pm On Mar 19, 2019 |
IamAnderson: Ok pls can u help me verify the name of the drug, and when u said painful what do u mean? Coz there is no sign of pain here, also the dogs cage is cemented and she spends basically 90 - 95% in there everyday. So hw do they go about the sand issue, she comes out just morning and night (sand). |
