Some dogs just like the taste of the grass even if they eat a well-balanced diet. It's possible that your dog is suffering from an upset stomach the instinct is to throw up as a form of relief. Keep an eye out for the grass that has been treated with pesticides or fertilizers. Be
sure the lawn products are safe for pets.

HEPATIC LIPIDOSIS IN CATS

2/9/2024

0 Comments

 
​This condition also known as fatty liver syndrome occurs when triglycerides accumulate within the liver cells and obstruct the organ’s function. Hepatic lipidosis is a secondary consequence of some other underlying condition, such as obesity, diabetes, cancer, hyperthyroidism, pancreatitis, kidney disease, or another type of liver problem. In the anorexic cat, excessive amounts of fat move to the liver from storage areas throughout the body to compensate for the lack of fat that would normally be consumed via its food. The liver is unable to process this excessive intake of fat, so it collects in the animal’s liver cells. It is crucially important to identify the underlying condition responsible for hepatic lipidosis and to initiate appropriate therapy for that condition without delay. Signs to look for: jaundiced, yellowish tinge in the skin, gums, and ears, lethargy, weakness, vomiting, and behavioral changes.
Consult your veterinarian as soon as possible.

HAIR LOSS IN PETS

2/2/2024

Hair loss is also known as alopecia. If your pet is losing a large amount of hair, you should consult your veterinarian. If you notice bald patches, inflammation, and scaling skin, you should immediately consult a vet. Pollen and other airborne allergen as well as fleas and other biting insects are the real culprits. They cause constant itching, irritation, and inflammation. Your dog may suffer from fungal and bacterial infections. This infection can also be the underlying cause of alopecia. The affected area will be inflamed, scaly, and crusty. 

Food items could be causing allergic symptoms in your pet, change the diet. Dogs are allergic to wheat, corn, eggs, soy, and chicken. Bathe your dog with soap-free or medicated shampoo from your vet, which can help ward off bacterial and fungal infections. Your vet will diagnose if it is a hormone imbalance.
