Pet Lecture | Why do pets get infected with internal parasites? How to prevent it?
In recent years, the "pet raising craze" has continued to rise, and more and more people choose to keep pets to accompany us. However, with the increase in pet owners, many pet owners have also had headaches. After all, pets need to walk outside frequently, and many pets get sick because of parasites. What's more serious is that these parasites are sometimes transmitted to their owners. This situation not only threatens the health of pets, but also brings a lot of trouble to the lives of pet owners.
Here, the editor will give a popular science. In fact, pet parasites are divided into two categories (internal and external parasites). These parasites are very cunning. They often lurk in the early stages of infection. As time goes by, these parasites begin to multiply and their numbers gradually increase. Some external parasites will suck the dog's blood, causing a series of problems such as hair loss, skin inflammation or ear infection in pets; various common internal parasites will be infected through pets' food, drinking water or licking grass and shrubs contaminated by other animals' excrement. Internal parasites can cause poor appetite, malnutrition, reduced endurance and immunity in pets, and sometimes cause hepatitis, jaundice, ascites, hemoptysis, and some can damage the heart and lung functions, causing dyspnea, exhaustion, and renal failure, which can be fatal. Therefore, pets must be dewormed regularly.
Deworming is for the health of pets and to avoid unnecessary trouble for family members.
