DOG HEALTH TIPS
Every dog owner should get his/her pet vaccinated from time to time, to safeguard it from infectious diseases and plagues. Early vaccination should be given compulsorily to all the puppies, starting from fourth week to sixteenth week, to protect them from many common diseases, like canine distemper, canine hepatitis, tracheobronchities, canine parvovirus, rabies, leptospirosis, and lyme. Vaccination should be given under the strict guidance of vets.
Different diseases develop in puppies, depending upon the environment and climate they live in. Regular check-up is the best thing that every puppy owner must do, to keep the puppy healthy. Vaccination from time to time is also unavoidable, throughout the entire life of the dog. It is always advisable to keep your pet away from unprotected and stray dogs, because most of them are infected with diseases. Care should be taken, mainly with the puppies, because if they get infected with any disease, it is difficult to cure them easily, as their immune systems are not fully developed. Following are some of the most common, dreaded dog diseases.
Rabies is the most dreaded and common disease, which is spread by the bite of a mad dog. When a mad dog bites another dog, it attacks the nervous system of the victim, and the victim also becomes mad. This disease is not only harmful for the dogs, but can also infect humans. There have been many incidents where a human being starts barking just like a dog, and tries to bite other people, after being bitten by a mad dog. Symptoms of rabies are depression, irritation, and paralysis. Once a dog is infected with rabies, it becomes fearless, and starts biting anyone he sees.
Parvovirus is a common contagious virus. It is spread very easily through contact. Diarrhea and vomiting are the symptoms of this infection. This virus is difficult to get rid of, because it can easily live in the surrounding environment. Most of the dogs, after being infected with this virus, die between 48-72 hours. Puppies are very difficult to save from this virus, and are the worst victims.
Distemper can infect all ages of dogs. Loss of appetite, chill and fever, melancholy, and water ejection from the nose and eyes are the signs of distemper. If any such sign is seen on the pets, then they should be immediately brought for a vet’s consultation. Distemper is very common in small puppies.
Canine hepatitis is the most dreaded disease, because it may knock the victim to death within a few hours. Lethargy, appetite loss, excessive thirst, vomiting, and high temperature are its symptoms. Leptospirosis is also a very dreaded disease spread by the brown rats.
Vets can provide vaccination for these diseases and plagues. But, very often, it becomes difficult and impossible to save the lives of dogs from these dreaded diseases. So, the need of the hour is that every owner should do a regular check-up of their pets, and get their pets vaccinated annually on a regular basis, apart from giving them the initial vaccination. Only proper vaccination and caring can keep the pets healthy, and free from diseases.
