What should I do if a dog is malnourished? You can work hard on food for a malnourished dog, prepare nutritious food for the dog, and make a nutritious meal suitable for the dog; for a malnourished dog, food supplements alone are not enough. Therefore, you can feed the dog a nutritional paste and feed it regularly according to the dog's condition. If the nutritional supplement is not effective, it may be because there are worms in the stomach. Take it to the hospital for examination and deworming before supplementing.
1. Strengthen dietary management
To ensure your dog’s nutritional balance, the most important thing is to work hard on your dog’s diet. Nutritious foods can be prepared during feeding, such as shrimp skin, beef, pork, beef stick bones, bone soup, carrots, etc. Of course, these foods cannot be eaten directly by dogs. They must be processed first before being eaten by dogs. Therefore, it is best for owners to select ingredients according to professional dog recipes, and then cook them to create fresh and nutritious meals for dogs.
2. Feeding nutrients
In addition to making your own dog food, you can also buy some professional dog nutrition products. Because fresh food will inevitably lose some nutrients during the cooking process. Compared with nutritious foods, the nutrients in food are not that sufficient. Especially for dogs with symptoms such as malnutrition, when they urgently need quick nutrition supplementation, relying on food to supplement nutrition is a bit insufficient.
At this time, you can choose to feed the dog a nutritional paste to quickly replenish the nutrients the dog lacks and replenish energy. Feed 2-3 cm per week, depending on the dog's food intake. Only in this way can scientific feeding provide it with the nutrients the body needs in a comprehensive and balanced manner.
3. Deworming
If the dog is particularly thin, you can go to the pet hospital for a check-up. It may be that there are worms in the dog’s stomach, causing him to feel uncomfortable and not like to eat. So if this is the problem, after deworming the dog, you can successfully supplement the nutrition with a little bowel movement.
