How many situations will a dog have when drinking? After drinking alcohol, dogs may cause alcohol poisoning, resulting in dangerous symptoms such as shortness of breath, diarrhea and abdominal pain, lying on the ground, and lower body temperature. Secondly, alcohol can seriously damage the dog's central nervous system, causing dogs to have neurological symptoms of excitation first and then inhibition.
1. Poisoning
Dogs can easily cause alcohol poisoning. At the beginning, they will experience symptoms such as excitement, heart rate, shortness of breath, etc., followed by symptoms of gastroenteritis such as abdominal pain and diarrhea. Finally, they will experience dangerous symptoms such as unstable gait, paralysis of the limbs, unable to get up, and decreased body temperature. In severe cases, it will directly lead to death. Therefore, once the dog is suspected of being infected by alcohol, it should be sent to the pet hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time to avoid delaying the condition and endangering the dog's life and health.
2. Damage to the central nervous system, alcohol contains ethanol, which is very dangerous for dogs. If you drink a lot of alcohol, it will affect the dog's central nervous system, causing the dog to experience excitement, unstable gait, confusion, shortness of breath, rapid heartbeat, etc., and you are at risk of death at any time.
3. The body of a dog is different from that of a human. The dog's body does not have enzymes that can metabolize ethanol substances in wine. Therefore, after drinking alcohol, it will cause serious liver damage and kidney damage to the dog.
Note: If the dog has drunk alcohol and has not been long, the owner can try to induce vomiting to the dog. If the dog has been drinking for a long time, it is recommended that the owner take the dog to the pet hospital for emergency treatment immediately.
