Most dog owners get lost when something happens to their dog—they don’t know what to do. What should you do if your dog ate something inedible during a walk? Why does the dog cough, or itch constantly, or often and a lot pees, or—on the contrary—doesn’t drink and doesn’t mark every post? How do you correctly clean a dog’s ears, measure temperature, check the pulse, or instill drops in the eyes? What’s included in first aid and emergency assistance?
For these and other urgent questions, you’ll find clear answers from practicing veterinarian Marina Rudenko. The author covers basic information about giving first pre-veterinary help to dogs not in theory, but with examples from real practice.
In this book you’ll find:
— features of canine physiology;
— signs of common diseases by symptoms and treatment methods;
— a first-aid kit contents list, as well as step-by-step instructions for resuscitation;
— methods of help for cuts, bites, bites from ticks and snakes, heatstroke, choking, frostbite, and so on;
