Teddy dogs are smart and unique, and are a favorite dog for many people. However, in the process of raising Teddy dogs, the most troublesome thing for owners is that the dogs only eat but cannot grow meat. Teddy dogs are usually thin due to these 5 points.
Point 1 , infected with parasites
When Teddy is infected with parasites, internal parasites (such as roundworms, tapeworms, hookworms, eye worms, etc.) and external parasites (such as fleas, fleas, ticks, etc.), Parasitism will compete with the dog for nutrients in the body, causing the dog to become thinner and not gain weight no matter how much he eats.
The pet should deworm Teddy regularly. Generally, for adult dogs, it is recommended to deworm the dog externally once a month and internally once every three months (the frequency can be adjusted appropriately according to the situation).
Point 2: The food eaten is not nutritious enough
Dogs must consume a variety of nutrients every day, such as protein, fat, minerals, vitamins, etc., to ensure healthy growth . If the diet is too simple and the food is not nutritious, the Teddy dog will have poor physical fitness and be thin, which is malnutrition.
It is recommended to use existing dog food as the main food, supplemented by cooked meat, and also feed vegetables and fruits, such as vegetables, carrots, apples, and pears, to ensure the daily nutrition of the dog.
Point 3. Abnormal organ function
If the function of Teddy’s internal organs such as the stomach and intestines is abnormal, various digestive enzymes in the body are abnormal, such as insulin, thyroid, and parathyroid gland abnormalities. , will make it difficult for Teddy to gain weight.
In this case, it is best to go to a pet hospital to determine the cause of the disease and then choose a treatment plan. Once the body is well, it will be easier to gain weight.
Point 4! , Poor digestion
If it is determined that Teddy is not caused by parasites, it is a problem with the digestive system. The gastrointestinal absorption is not good, resulting in eating without gaining weight. You can usually choose to feed probiotics or yogurt containing beneficial bacteria.
Help Teddy increase beneficial bacteria in the body, promote intestinal digestion and absorption, and if he has a good appetite and loves to eat, he will naturally gain weight. If Teddy has a poor appetite, you can feed him some goat cheese snacks, which can increase appetite and supplement calcium.
Point 5: Picky eaters who don’t like to eat
If Teddy is picky about food, the nutrients absorbed by the body will be very limited, and the body will lack other nutrients, resulting in malnutrition, thus Thin body. Teddy dogs who are in a bad mood and tend to be depressed will also lose weight, so companionship and education are very important.
