If the dog refuses to eat, it is generally possible to last about 10 days if it refuses to eat. If the young dog does not eat, it is very likely that he will not live for a week. When you find that the dog has been refusing to eat in recent days, the pet owner should check whether its physical condition and mental outlook are normal as soon as possible. If there are symptoms, you must immediately send it to the doctor for examination and treatment to eliminate the physiological hazards. You can first try the following methods to increase its appetite and help it recover and eat as soon as possible.
1. Soothing mentality and adaptability
Some dogs are more introverted. When they first arrive at a new house, they will be anxious and worried about not eating due to the unfamiliar natural environment. At this time, they must pay attention to soothing mentality and do not rush to feed them food, milk or snacks to prevent them from having diarrhea.
The pet owner can move the young dog to a relatively quiet small house, put some objects that contain it that understands the taste, and place some easy-to-digest liquid food or wet food for it to eat. A small amount of young dog fresh bread or some milk powder can be added. After it understands the natural environment, it should start eating some items, so it does not have to watch the excitement and disturb it when it eats.
2. Fill in gastrointestinal probiotics and pepsin
Some dogs usually eat irregular diets and are often hungry and full. The digestive and absorption effect of the gastrointestinal tract will be deviated, and it is very easy to have indigestion and stomach swelling. It will also harm its food afterwards.
For this situation, it is recommended to give the dog an indigestion to check it for half a day, and feed it some Wang Xiangdi digestive tablets to help it supplement vitamins, intestinal probiotics and pepsin, promote the digestion and absorption of the gastrointestinal tract and intestinal peristalsis, and feed it with some yogurt, which will be more conducive to opening up its appetite. In the future, it can take it outdoors to perform some fitness exercises, which consumes unnecessary calories. Of course, it will have appetite to eat when it feels hungry.
3. Adjustment and breeding methods
Many pet owners spoil their dogs too much and often feed them snacks or meat foods. Snacks replace everything, and they will become more and more biased in eating more and more, and they will be very repulsive when serving regular meals. In addition, if they eat single dog food or certain ingredients for a long time, the dog will not be interested in eating.
To improve this situation, it is necessary to adjust the breeding method of pet owners to prevent long-term single diet combinations of dogs, prevent overcapacity of snacks, and allow dogs to cultivate an excellent dietary structure. For dogs that always tend to eat sideways, the pet owner can give it a few meals to eat, and then provide ingredients in the restaurant. If it eats less or has leftovers within 15 minutes, it must take away the rice plate as soon as possible to prevent it from being placed in front of it all the time. You can change the new dog food once every six months to change the taste of the dog. Pay attention to following the seven-day grain exchange method to give it an effective stable period.
