What does small dog mean

Dog small is a severe infectious disease of dogs, which can be divided into enteritis type and myocarditis type. Enteritis type: The main feature is hemorrhagic necrosis of the small intestine, manifested as depression, loss of appetite, and vomiting. In the late stage of the disease, the feces of dogs are mostly tomato-like, and the smell is unpleasant. Myocarditis type: manifested as acute non-suppurative myocarditis, manifested as pale mucous membranes, dyspnea, and sudden death due to acute heart failure, which needs attention.

Causes of tiny dogs

1. Insufficient immunity: When the dog has not received immunization or the vaccination is not complete, it has come into contact with the infected dog or their excrement, vomit, saliva, or the owner may carry it with him when he comes back. At this time, the dog's immunity is insufficient to resist the attack of parvovirus.

2. Stress-induced microbiosis: Usually puppies are very poor in adapting to the environment. Changes in the environment or sudden stimulation will cause them to have a stress response, which will make them more likely to be infected with viruses.

3. Parvo caused by parasites: Small dogs that have not been dewormed are easily infected by parasites and have vomiting and diarrhea, which leads to a decrease in the dog's resistance and is easy to be infected with parvovirus.

4. Caused by improper diet: such as feeding the dog milk, chicken bones, oily food, etc., which will cause the dog to have diarrhea and be infected with parvovirus.

petite treatment for dogs

1. Use antiviral drugs, such as parvovirus inhibitory protein, interferon, etc.

2. Need to use antibiotics for treatment. Because during parvovirus infection, the dog's white blood cells will drop.

3. Repeated vomiting and bloody diarrhea require infusion therapy. The general course of disease is five to seven days.
