The dog's fever and cold have not recovered for five days may be related to its own poor resistance, or it may be that the little pet owner's countermeasures are not timely. When it is found that the dog has a fever and cold, the little pet owner should not turn a deaf ear. It should adopt some suitable countermeasures as soon as possible to solve its condition. There are no need to keep thinking about letting it cure it to prevent the condition from getting worse and worse. Below are some ways to solve the dog's fever and cold. We hope to help the dog recover as soon as possible.

1. Pay attention to keeping the dog warm

Dogs usually catch a cold and will have a fever and cold, and catching a cold again will aggravate its condition. When you find that your dog has a fever and cold, the pet owner should provide it with warm and warm measures as soon as possible and show a comfortable and warm natural environment to keep it quiet.

Pay attention to controlling the indoor temperature, close some windows and doors to prevent air conditioning from blowing the dog, then apply some blankets or put a hot water bag in the area where it is asleep to help it keep warm and keep it warm to prevent it from having diarrhea. In addition, it should prevent it from entering and leaving the indoors and outdoors frequently to prevent too large temperature differences from causing irritation to the dog's body.

2. Improve nutritional supplements during the disease. Dogs with fever and cold are relatively weak and are more likely to suffer from symptoms such as snoring, runny nose and dry cough. In addition to showing measures to prevent cold and keep warm, pet owners should also attach great importance to nutritional supplements for their dogs.

This period can reduce the amount of feeding dry dog food, boil some ingredients such as millet soup, minced meat porridge, fish head soup, etc., which are easy to digest, and pay attention to letting the dog drink more warm water to help accelerate the body's basic metabolism. The ingredients or drinking water can be mixed with some quick-temperature fun, helping it fill the nutrients needed during the disease period, and taking some meow beans to help it reduce the relative diseases caused by fever and colds, and promote its body's repair.

3. Check whether there is a high fever

The main symptoms of canine distemper are similar to those of fever and cold. If the above countermeasures are adopted, the symptoms of the dog's cold are still very obvious. It is best for the little pet owner to use professional canine distemper test strips to check whether the dog is infected with this virus.

If the dog is just a simple fever and cold, the pet owner should pay more attention to the temperature of the dog and see if it has a high fever. If the body temperature exceeds 39.2° for a long time, it is necessary to wipe its skin with alcohol to perform physical fever reduction. After taking it to the pet clinic for fever-reducing injections as soon as possible, there is no need to feed people with antipyretic drugs casually to prevent the poor use of the disease from aggravating the condition.
