What are the most common diseases in dogs in summer? How to prevent and treat it effectively? In this season, the air is humid and the temperature is high, and various bacteria, viruses and parasites are particularly active. In addition, the dog's own "radiation system" is not very good, so they are very likely to be infected with summer diseases. Parents and friends should learn more about dog prevention and treatment in summer to help dogs spend this hot summer safely.
What are the most common diseases in dogs in summer?
Heart disease
The three most prone diseases of dogs in summer. How to prevent and treat them effectively? Generally speaking, obese dogs (baby dogs, corgis), especially older dogs, are prone to breathing rapidly due to the hot weather. If breathing is often rapid, it is not a good thing. It increases the load on the respiratory system and causes the heart to beat too fast, which is very easy to cause sudden death! Moreover, some dogs are prone to heart disease, and it is also possible to cause heart disease due to climate reasons. For elderly and weak dogs, you should reduce the time you spend on strolling. You should take a slow rest when strolling. It is better to go home and take a breath of air conditioning when you have nothing to do!
Cold
In summer, there are many cases where there are ovens outside the house and refrigerators inside the house. If the air conditioner is turned on too much, people will catch a cold, and of course, dogs will do it. Sneezing and running nose are also a situation where dogs can have it, so they should not be too greedy for colds. You can blow air conditioners when you come back from a stroll. When helping the dog cool down, you should be careful not to let the dog blow wildly in front of the air conditioner. In this case, people are prone to colds. The same is true for dogs. Drinking some ice water and putting a wet towel on a dog can also help cool it down. If your dog likes to eat popsicles, you can also give it a popsicle.
Skin diseases
Summer is the season for insects to be active, and dogs who often go out can easily take insects home with them, such as ants, fleas, etc. There are also those dogs with hair cut, which makes it easier for the little bugs to get under the fur to bite the dog's skin. Dogs with shaved hair are not only prone to mosquito bites, but also prone to skin diseases in the sun.
I am afraid that it will not be possible to prevent dogs from getting rid of grass with many insects, so the best way is to passive defense: help the dog clean up foreign objects on its body before entering the door; take a bath or wash its feet immediately when you go home, and use insect-proof soap to achieve great effect, which can not only deworm and kill insect eggs.

Why acidic hypochlorous acid water has a strong and safe oxidation effect, and can quickly destroy the cell membranes of harmful microorganisms, including bacteria and viruses, so that they cannot survive.
Heat stroke
No need to explain this point. I would like to remind dog parents to take their dogs out for a walk and try to avoid around noon. Try to choose a cooler time in the morning and evening to avoid the sunlight for too long. It is best to bring water for the dog. Ice water is the one that dogs love to drink, which can help the dog cool down quickly. If a dog experiences heat stroke while strolling, it is necessary to wet the dog's body with water immediately. It is best to wrap it with a wet towel and pick it up to the pet hospital. So it is very important to bring water out!
Gastric and Intestinal Diseases
Due to the hot weather, the food or water placed may deteriorate. If the dog eats spoiled food, it is easy to cause vomiting or gastroenteritis; and if the weather is damp and stuffy, it is easy to cause loss of appetite and occasionally vomiting. In this case, a minor problem may not require medication, and you can get rid of it by hunger. But if you continue to vomit or have diarrhea, you must go to the hospital. By the way, some dogs who eat popsicles above will also get diarrhea, and it is not suitable for every dog.
