The plants are growing lushly in spring and summer, and some pollen, wild grasses, etc. may cause allergic reactions to dogs. Some common plants that can have allergic reactions to dogs are mostly seed-based plants, such as: white flower purple dew grass. In addition, the high temperature in summer and high ultraviolet rays are high, and long-term exposure to the sun may also cause allergic stimulation to dogs.
The impact of these allergic reactions on dogs is that itchy, and dogs will naturally itch with their paws or rub them constantly on the carpet. Although this can solve the temporary itching problem, it triggers more serious skin infections. In addition, allergic reactions are a relatively serious skin disease in dogs and must be taken seriously. General allergic reactions are usually caused by itching on the body, rashes, skin hair loss, diarrhea, etc. However, severe allergic reactions will endanger the life safety of the dog and may cause shock death.
Spring and summer are warm and moist, which are very suitable for the physiological processes of parasites such as growth, reproduction, and development. These parasites are also likely to become the cause of skin diseases for dogs. Common parasites on dogs are fleas and lice. These parasites will breed quietly in summer and exist in hairy areas such as the back or tail of the dog, and are not easily found.
These parasites will make the dog feel itchy, and then they will scratch, lick and even bite the itchy area wildly, which will cause the dog's skin to thicken, hair loss, injury, etc.
The temperature in spring and summer is high, and dogs cannot stand the high temperature environment, resulting in a decrease in diet, a decrease in appetite, a habit of sleepiness, and does not like activities. This living habit has led to a decline in the physical fitness mechanism of dogs in spring and summer, resulting in low immunity, which gives skin diseases an opportunity to take advantage of.
In some common skin diseases of dogs, the lack of zinc is caused by dryness and thickening of the skin on the face, palm, abdomen and other body parts of the dog, which can easily cause hair loss and scabs. If copper is missing, the dog will have symptoms such as dull skin, anemia, hair loss, etc.; when the dog lacks a certain amount of fatty acids in the body, it means that the dog's moisture is easy to lose, and the trauma formed by the skin is difficult to heal, which will lead to suppuration, hair loss and other symptoms. These are some common skin diseases in dogs in summer.
Prevention and control measures:
For dogs, unhair areas are very susceptible to high temperatures. In summer, the ultraviolet rays of sunlight are strong, and long-term exposure to the sun will cause the dog's skin to be damaged to varying degrees. The first areas that are injured are mostly hair-less areas such as ears, abdomen, and nose, which can easily lead to skin allergies and even skin cancer. Therefore, in order to better preventive work, the time for pet dogs to bathe in sunbathing can be staggered from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Even if you are sunbathing, protective measures must be taken to apply sunscreen to the dog to avoid sun damage.
In spring and summer, try to minimize the chance of taking dogs out for activities, avoid contact with dogs that are prone to allergic reactions, and you can also go to a special dog hospital for anti-allergic vaccine.
provides a good, clean and comfortable living environment for dogs. Dispose of the dog's fallen hair in time, avoid contact with the wet ground, and clean up garbage in the dog's living environment.
Supplement dogs with some necessary vitamins or trace elements, especially fatty acids, and eliminate the possibility of skin diseases caused by this aspect as much as possible.
