During the growth process, dogs need to supplement calcium to promote bone absorption. If calcium is not supplemented in time, the dog’s coat will not be smooth enough, its walking will be unstable, it will twitch in sleep, and its ears will not stand up. And dogs of different ages show different calcium deficiencies. Next, the editor will briefly talk to you.
If puppies are deficient in calcium, they will have uneven teeth, double rows of teeth, O-shaped legs and X-legs; in young and middle-aged dogs, postpartum and high-intensity exercise dogs need more calcium. If they are deficient in calcium after delivery, their bodies will be significantly thinner, muscle weakness, insufficient milk or slow growth of milk puppies; if old dogs are deficient in calcium, they will have osteoporosis, joint swelling and fractures. Feces removal officials must pay attention to the dog's behavior when feeding the dog. Once the above-mentioned calcium deficiency problem occurs, it must be sent to the hospital for examination and prevention in time to avoid worse situations.
The main reason for calcium deficiency in puppies is that they need a large amount of calcium to promote bone growth. However, dogs’ teeth are not fully developed and their digestion ability is not strong, so it is not recommended for puppies to eat bones to supplement nutrition. The correct way is to regularly feed your puppy with goat milk, mixed with high-calcium and high-phosphorus nutrients such as goat milk powder, calcium powder, and calcium tablets. Take your dog out in the sun regularly to promote calcium absorption.
Postpartum dogs need more calcium because they are weak after birth and lack a lot of nutrients. They need to milk the baby to convert blood calcium into milk to feed the baby, so they need to supplement calcium.
It is recommended to feed postpartum dog mothers some light meat bones and egg yolks, and feed dog mothers special postpartum dog calcium tablets, and encourage dog mothers to exercise more and bask in the sun to promote the absorption and transformation of calcium in the body. If there is still calcium deficiency, it is recommended to send the female dog to the hospital for calcium injection and feed the baby dog milk powder to relieve the stress of the female dog.
