If a Teddy dog is deficient in calcium, the most intuitive manifestations are generally irritability, hot flashes, easy fractures, and laziness in running. Loss of appetite is also one of the symptoms of calcium deficiency. He does not like to eat and does not have a fever. If Teddy's appetite decreases and he eats less and less, he must consider whether he is deficient in calcium.
If Teddy lacks calcium, the dog will have skeletal hypoplasia, rib valgus, hip dysplasia and other symptoms. The hip joint will be unstable, which will cause the dog to limp and sway from side to side when walking. As adults, the muscles begin to atrophy and the pelvis begins to tilt, leading to persistent scoliosis and the possibility of permanent paw paw placement.
Teddy’s teeth begin to change when he is 3 to 6 months old. If the dog’s calcium needs are not met during the teeth-changing period, the dog’s deciduous teeth have not yet fallen out and the permanent teeth have grown, it will cause the dog to have double teeth. When teeth are arranged, Teddy's double rows of teeth will easily accumulate dirt, which over time will lead to dental calculus and bad breath. Bacteria can easily breed in the mouth, affecting the dog's oral health.
