Golden Retriever (Definite Introduction)
Drinking water is the most important thing for every pet owner. Things that are familiar are also things that are most easily ignored. It turns out that when it comes to drinking water, there are many details worthy of our attention.
1. What kind of drinking water should be given to pets?
The most critical point in drinking water is cleanliness. Under normal circumstances, owners will use tap water as the first source of water for their pets. However, giving tap water to pets to drink directly is not good for their health. In order to protect the health of pets, it is best to boil the water and cool it before giving it to them to drink. Secondly, pet owners must develop the habit of changing water frequently. Water will deteriorate if left for a long time, so owners must do it at least once a day. For situations where the water in the water basin is often wasted due to small pets, the best solution is to change the water basin to one suitable for your pet. Third, the location of the water basin is also important. It is best to have a breathable and cool place. Especially in summer, do not place the water basin where it can be directly exposed to the sun. This may cause the dog to have It’s so hot that you have to drink “boiled water”. In other places where the water basin is placed, there should be no debris around it to prevent debris from falling into the water basin and causing infection. Finally, like people, pets like to drink cold water in summer and warm water in winter. Especially in the last month of winter, it is best for owners to prepare a basin of warm water for them, so as not to cause pets to automatically reduce their drinking water because they feel cold. In summer, cold water is naturally necessary, and the other key point is to have enough. On the one hand, summer consumption is relatively large, and the pet's own supply will naturally increase. On the other hand, drinking water can very well help pets in the midsummer. Drop temperature.
2. Drinking water under special circumstances
The so-called special circumstances mainly refer to pets that are unable to eat normally due to weakness, disease, etc., but they No infusion is performed. At this time, the pet owner can add salt and glucose to the drinking water and prepare it as glucose saline for the pet to drink. The main function of salt is to prevent electrolyte imbalance in pets, while the function of glucose is to supply energy. It should be noted that when preparing, the amount of salt should be smaller. Generally, the salt concentration of physiological saline is around 0.9%, while the concentration of glucose can be slightly higher, controlled around 5%. If the pet is unable to drink water on its own, you may wish to use a disposable syringe, remove the needle, and absorb the self-prepared solution.Feed slowly from the side of the animal's mouth to avoid choking.
