Many people who raise dogs know that dogs usually like to lick their noses. When the dog's nose is dry, it means that there are problems with their dog's health. Is this statement correct? Let’s take a look together.
1. Why do dogs’ noses get wet? It’s not that the dog’s nose secretes something to make the nose wet, but that the dog licks the nose with its tongue and becomes wet. Dogs need to keep their nose moist and sensitive by adding them. Licking the nose is a very difficult action for us, but it is very easy for dogs.
2. It is normal to see when a dog's nose dry. The dryness and wetness of a dog's nose are opposite. The wetness of a dog's nose does not mean wetness, nor does it mean dryness cracks. Generally, when dogs wake up, they often lick their noses with their tongues, and when they sleep, they will become dryer. This is normal, not a disease, just like people sometimes lick their lips to keep them moist, and their lips will be dry after waking up in the morning. So it is normal for dogs to have a dry nose when they wake up in the morning.
3. Dry nose is often a precursor to illness
Because dogs have wet noses and are licked with their tongues, at some point, when the dog gets sick, it will not have the energy to do this simple action. Just like when people are sick, we may not care about whether we wash our faces or brush our teeth because of physical discomfort. Dogs don’t have this interest when they are sick. So once the dog doesn't lick its nose, it's likely that it's because the dog is going to get sick. Dry nose is a basic manifestation of dog diseases. The most common reason is to get angry. If the dog gets angry, you can add some minerals or glucose to the water and drink more water.
If the dog's nose is dry, it will be accompanied by diarrhea and will not eat (but it is clear-headed), and the things you pull are first chocolate-colored and smelly; then it will be white, bloody and sticky. This is the most terrible parvovirus. Generally, it will cause death. If you discover it early, you will be saved. Generally, injectable serum treatment is used. Small dogs are advised not to treat them. Only vaccination is given every year to prevent epidemics. If the accompanying high fever does not subside, you are confused, you walk backwards and bite people. Mostly it’s dog distemper. It is an infectious disease and is also very likely to die. The treatment results will not be ideal and may cause brain damage. It is best to get vaccinated to prevent epidemics.
So once your dog's nose is dry, hurry up and take your anus (what is the normal body temperature of dogs and cats? If you have fever, take some anti-inflammatory drugs. See if there is any reaction the next day (events, eating something). If it doesn't work, it's necessary to see a doctor. It's better to have a fixed pet doctor.
In fact, there are many reasons for dogs' nose dry. Not only the above situations, there must be other situations, so everyone is thinking that their dog's nose is When it is dry, don’t panic and think that the dog must have some serious illness. You can try to wet his nose with a little warm water. Then make a judgment and diagnosis based on the situation. Of course, if the dog catches a cold, the nose is easy to dry. This is what everyone knows. Just treat him at this time.
