Symptoms of calcium deficiency in Labrador:
1. Irregular teeth. The dog's teeth will suffer from the failure of the deciduous teeth to fall out and the slow growth of the permanent teeth, which will lead to the irregular arrangement of the dog's teeth and large teeth.
2. Bone deformation. Severe calcium deficiency in Labrador dogs can lead to various bone problems, such as joint deformation, X-shaped legs, O-legs, rib valgus, etc.
3. Less hair. Labrador retrievers have less hair than other dogs of the same age and are darker in color.
4. Poor condition. Calcium deficiency in Labrador dogs will also show lack of energy, loss of appetite, weight loss, etc.
Calcium supplementation methods for Labrador:
1. Dietary calcium supplementation. When feeding dog food daily, give Labrador some calcium-rich foods as supplementary food, such as dried shrimps, soy products, beef, kelp, etc.
2. Feed calcium supplements. In addition to supplementing it with calcium through food supplements, it is also necessary to give it a pet calcium supplement supplement specifically for dogs. The powder can be mixed directly with the food and fed.
3. Bask in the sun. When the weather is fine, take your Labrador outdoors for a walk. The ultraviolet rays in the sun will promote the absorption of calcium.
