Symptoms of Labrador pregnancy: physical changes
Dogs in early pregnancy may suffer from loss of appetite or retching due to estrogen imbalance in the body. The dog's vulva will also shrink rapidly. At this time, the owner must take the dog to the hospital for a B-ultrasound examination to confirm the diagnosis.In the second trimester of pregnancy, the dog’s body will gradually gain weight. Especially after the belly expands rapidly, the Labrador's movement will become very inconvenient. The owner must pay attention to taking it to exercise every day and not always letting it lie down and sleep in the kennel.
Symptoms of Labrador pregnancy: changes in food intake
There are obvious changes in the food intake of female dogs after pregnancy. In the early stages of pregnancy, dogs may have a loss of appetite and be lethargic. By the second trimester, dogs will have a particularly large need for food and will be particularly eager to eat. At this time, the owner must strictly control the dog's food intake, otherwise he will become overweight and cause dystocia.In addition to controlling food intake, owners should add more nutritious foods to their dogs. They can also appropriately add nutritional supplements such as probiotics, calcium powder or lecithin.
