The dog's legs are a little lame, so it's enough to walk around. At this time, the owner should carefully observe the dog's legs and feet. There are many reasons for dogs to have lame legs, such as numbness when sleeping; dogs are traumatized; dogs are prone to lame legs if they lack calcium or have rheumatism. The owner wants to find the reason why the dog's legs are lame, and then use appropriate countermeasures to assist the dog.
1. Check the legs and feet
The dog's legs are a little lame. The owner should check the legs and feet carefully to see if there is any trauma. If the dog's legs and feet are traumatized, the owner can solve the problem at home. If it is more serious, he must seek medical treatment.
If the dog has no trauma and his legs are lame, it will be cured after walking for a while. It may also be a temporary leg lame. Some dogs sleep at night and press one leg on the other leg, or always maintain a posture. After waking up, their legs are numb and temporary leg lame occurs. However, after walking, it will be relieved. This type of problem is generally not a big deal and will be repaired independently.
2. Moderate calcium supplementation
If the dog is not trauma and often has lame legs and feet, it will be cured after walking. It may also be because of lack of calcium. If the lack of calcium is more serious, it will cause lame legs.
The owner should check whether he is paying attention to supplementing calcium and zinc for dogs, and whether the method of supplementing calcium and zinc is appropriate. The owner can give the dog some shrimp skin, water tofu, and black sesame powder to help supplement calcium and zinc. He also needs to give the dog some calcium carbonate to supplement calcium and zinc well. For example, eat Wanglijiao, eat it immediately or mix it into the things the dog likes to eat together.
3. Maintain joints
Some dogs have rheumatism and may also have lame legs in the future. There are many reasons for dogs to suffer from rheumatism, which are trauma and injured; they live in dark and cold areas for a long time; and their age is declining.
If a dog has rheumatism, the owner should give the dog some stamina and maintain the joints. In addition, let the dog lie flat and rest more, and do not have to walk too much, especially if you don’t have to walk stairs or jump, or do vigorous fitness exercises. You should also keep the dog warm, especially when you pay attention to the cold and warmth of your legs and feet.
