6. Special reminder from experts
High temperature weather has occurred in many places recently. Please pay attention to:
• Avoid going out to urinate between 11:00 and 15:00 (floor temperature may burn paw pads)
• The air-conditioned room needs to maintain a constant temperature of 24-26°C (puppies have poor body temperature regulation ability)
• It is necessary to change staple foods with a water content >70% gradually (sudden changes may increase the burden on the kidneys)
If the puppy has abnormal urination for more than 3 days, or has symptoms such as listlessness and weight loss, it is recommended to conduct a routine urine examination (the average price of recent pet hospital tests is 80-120 yuan) and ultrasound examination (200-300 yuan) in time. Early detection and early treatment can effectively prevent subsequent problems such as chronic kidney disease.
