If in the abdominal area we touch and we do not notice abdominal fat, our friend is below his weight. 1. Very thin The vertebrae, ribs and bones are noticed, and they are also very marked and can be seen perfectly. If you notice a loss of muscles and have no abdominal fat. 2. Causes of why your dog does not get fat The main cause may be a poor diet or the food you eat does not have the necessary nutrients. It is very advisable to look at what type of feed our dog is eating, and look at the properties they have because most are of very poor quality. A small dose may also be the reason why we should be vigilant to check when our faithful friend lacks food. A dog with more activity as a rule tends to eat more than one that is calmer. Another cause, may be that the nutrient of what we are giving is not absorbed in the right way. A possible problem of pancreas can cause that the animal does not create the necessary enzymes to realize a good digestion, and therefore it does not take advantage of all the necessary nutrients. A bowel disease may be another reason. This type of disease can be inflammatory. Irritable bowel syndrome or an intestinal wall affected by some type of infection. Annoying parasites can also be some of the reasons why our dog does not get fat. They lodge in the intestines and absorb nutrients. Diabetes in dogs is a very common disease, and they tend to lose weight very drastically. The lack of insulin created by the pancreas means that nutrients do not become energy. Addison syndrome can make our dog vomit or have diarrhea, hence weight loss. It is difficult to diagnose because the veterinarians themselves may hesitate with other types of diseases, but with a good medical study they will find the solution. Diseases related to the thyroid make our dog can have a metabolism much higher than a dog in perfect condition, which causes its nutrients are insufficient and bring about that weight loss. When we observe that our dog does not act as usual, we must have a more exhaustive control of what he eats or drinks so we can find an immediate solution. If your dog tends to be up and down, in the field and has an important caloric expenditure, remember that you must increase your portion of food. 3. Solutions for my dog to grow fat. First of all, assist a veterinarian to do a study and find the source of the problem. Administer food two, three or four times a day and that is constantly hydrated. The second is to deworm it. In the veterinary clinic they sell some pills that if you mix them, but with a piece of small sausage our dog will take the medicine. In two or three days we will see an improvement. Do not subject our dog to many efforts until it is fully recovered. A little rest would not hurt. If after these solutions does not improve, even worse it should be taken immediately to a veterinarian. Any signal that we notice outside of normal we will tell the veterinarian in order to reach a solution as quickly as possible. 📢 I RECOMMEND YOU: CLICK HERE 👉 https://tubienestar.club/TrainingDogs
