Postpartum, the most common problem that female dogs have when breastfeeding is that postpartum calcium deficiency causes high fever and convulsions of female dogs. This situation occurs during the rapid growth and development stage of puppies. It is usually 7 days after giving birth, especially female dogs with a large number of births, and cannot afford the nutritional needs of puppies, which is manifested as insufficient nutritional income, causing hypocalcological convulsions.
The clinical symptoms are head-raising and convulsions, gritting teeth, foaming out of mouth, and high fever of about 40°C. If the diagnosis is misdiagnosed at this time, it is very dangerous, and there is a possibility of death due to delaying the condition. During treatment, intravenous calcium supplementation is mainly used, and there is no need to apply cooling or sedative medicine.
After hypocalcological convulsions after delivery, treatment is on the one hand; on the other hand, the number of breastfeedings in the female dog should be reduced to reduce the nutritional expenses of the female dog. At the same time, artificial feeding of a certain amount of food to ensure the growth and development of the puppy.
Postpartum mastitis and endometriitis are issues that should be paid attention to in female dog health care. After mastitis occurs, the breasts of the puppies are painful when they are breastfeeding. The female dog will refuse to breastfeed. Endometriitis can cause uterine sepsis and even cause sepsis.
