The bones of pet dogs are very fragile. Maybe you will break their bones if you step on them lightly. When a dog’s bone is broken, there are some precautions that friends need to know.

When a dog breaks a bone, its bones may shift positions, and the body of the broken bone is in abnormal postures such as shortening, bending, and extension. Dogs with fractures cannot move normally, and the fractured legs cannot bear weight, bend or straighten well. In addition, when you listen carefully, you may hear the rubbing sound of broken bones. Note that once the dog is fractured, it must be disposed of in time. Of course, if it is not done, the damage to the dog may be lifelong.

Treating a dog’s fracture is not easy. When a pet dog is found to have a fracture, emergency treatment can be carried out on the spot first, and then the dog must be sent to the pet hospital in time. In the emergency treatment process, the dog should be ligated with bandages, cloth strips, ropes, etc. above the wound to stop bleeding, rub iodine tincture on the affected part, and remove iodoform sulfonamide powder from the wound. The second is to temporarily bandage and fix the fracture, and immediately send it to a veterinary clinic for treatment.

If the dog’s fracture is serious and the injured pet dog can no longer move, parents should not rush to move it. It is best to find a large wooden board first, and then move the dog to the wooden board in parallel. After fixing (keep the dog from moving around), the pet dog should be sent to the hospital for treatment in time, remember not to waste time.

The dogs should pay attention to calcium supplementation during the fracture recovery period. You can use the kind of calcium tablets that people eat for dogs, or you can buy the kind of calcium powder that is specially used for dogs. But dont supplement calcium too much, you can consult your pet doctor about the dosage of calcium supplement.
