Dog diseases

Until recently, rabies was known as hydrophobia. Signs of rabies in dogs are not always clear and obvious to the average person.

Many dog ​​owners, especially new ones, mistakenly believe that infectious diseases are the main danger to their pets. They believe that simply getting the appropriate vaccinations will ensure their pets are safe outside.

Unfortunately, no. Poisoning is a fairly common affliction affecting dogs these days. And rat poison is usually at the top of the list. Moreover, your dog can become poisoned not only by swallowing deadly bait, but also by eating a poisoned mouse or rat. This is especially common in burrowing dogs.

Pyometra is a form of purulent endometritis—an inflammatory and infectious process in the uterus—that occurs in cats of all ages, including those who have never given birth. This is a dangerous condition that requires immediate veterinary intervention, otherwise it can have serious consequences for the animal's health and life. Pyometra is impossible in spayed cats, as removal of the uterus and both ovaries reduces the risk of developing the condition to zero.

Keeping pets shouldn't be done lightly. After all, we are responsible for the ones we've tamed. If you've brought a kitten into your home, be prepared for long and painstaking work—after all, you'll be raising a healthy and intelligent little one. And if your cat experiences health issues, your job is to do everything possible to ensure their recovery as quickly as possible. Closely monitor your pet's development, and if you notice any signs of illness, including seemingly harmless dandruff, consult a veterinarian.
