Most dogs raised in rural areas have not received deworming. In addition, they often roll in the grass and mud, so they often have some ticks and fleas on their bodies. If you are not careful, it can also be transmitted to the scavenger, so it is recommended that even dogs in rural areas should be dewormed as much as possible.
Let’s take a look at the short story shared by a netizen below. It makes people suffer from trypophobia.
This woman has a garden dog at home. Although the price is not expensive and a neighbor gave it to her for free, it has a very good personality, lively and cute, and is deeply loved by her family.
When the woman was sitting in the yard to rest, the dog came over and she wanted to play with it for a while. But after playing for only a few minutes, many black spots appeared densely on my legs. I grabbed a handful and looked at them. My hair stood on end, and my mentality suddenly collapsed.
When the woman saw that these didn't look like fleas, she felt very confused: What on earth are these? Hey, I have lived in the countryside for so long and I have never seen these before.
The following is a popular science on the necessity of deworming dogs.
1. Puppies are easily infected with parasites. They can be infected from the mother dog’s milk or while they are still in the mother dog’s body.
2. Take your dog out for a walk frequently. They will get into the grass and mire, and there is a great risk of being targeted by parasites, so you must deworm your dog.
3. Even if the dog stays at home every day, or avoids going to some very dirty places, it should not be taken lightly, because once infected with parasites, it will not only affect the skin, but also be very detrimental to the dog's gastrointestinal health.
Before we deworm your dog, you can give them a bath, because you cannot take a bath within two or three days after deworming, which will affect the effect of deworming. There is another situation where deworming is not allowed, and that is when the dog has just been vaccinated.
Some dogs will have diarrhea after deworming. At this time, the dog owner can feed them some probiotics to regulate the dog's stomach. Try not to feed raw meat to the dog in daily life, which will increase the risk of the dog being infected with parasites.
In what case does it imply that the poop scavenger wants to deworm the dog?
For example, if a dog always bites itself with its mouth and scratches with its paws, it may be that fleas have appeared. For example, dogs are very impulsive and often irritable. It may be parasites that affect their mood. In addition, if the dog's appetite has significantly decreased, it may also be caused by parasites.
In short, dog owners should regularly deworm their dogs, no matter whether they are breed dogs or local dogs. Deworming is not only for the good of the dogs, but also a guarantee for the owner’s health.
