East African hounds (confirmed introduction)
Except for the length of their hair, the East African Hound and the Afghan Hound are very similar, so many people also distinguish them based on the length of their hair. There are relatively many things that need to be paid attention to when raising a giant East African hound. Let’s briefly describe the problems and solutions that are commonly encountered when raising dogs in daily life.
Accurate ways to prevent food poisoning in East African hounds
1. Prevent bacterial infection: Fresh food should be prepared at all times, and leftover food should not be left in the food container and ignored .
2. Prevent bacterial growth: Leftover food eaten by pet dogs must be moved to a tightly closed container and kept at a low temperature. Generally speaking, if kept in a refrigerator below 50°C, bacteria will not grow in a short period of time.
3. Sterilization: Staphylococci are extremely resistant to heat and cannot be sterilized even if heated. However, Monkella or Vibrio enteritidis can be prevented if heated. Botulinum toxin will be damaged if heated at 80°C for 15 minutes. Therefore, suspicious food must be fully heated to prevent poisoning accidents.
4. Things you must pay attention to: Toxic substances such as pesticides and rodenticides, various chemicals, household cleaners, bleach, etc. should be carefully preserved and controlled. If unfortunately poisoning occurs due to accidental ingestion, the cause must be found out quickly, and appropriate judgment, adjustment and care must be made at the customer's expense.
Can East African hounds eat mooncakes?
The main ingredients of mooncakes are flour, sugar, fat, etc., and their calories are very high. Therefore, mooncakes are called the "three high" foods, that is, foods high in oil, high sugar, and high fat. They are not only difficult to digest, but also hinder the absorption of other foods, leading to food accumulation and food stagnation.
Especially for pet dogs, eating mooncakes will be harmful to their health. Clinically, we often encounter cases of vomiting and loss of appetite after dogs accidentally eat mooncakes. Secondly, mooncakes often contain nuts, peanuts, etc. These are often difficult to digest and cause appetite problems. Certain foods, such as grapes, may also cause poisoning.
Furthermore, although pet dogs are not as worried about "weight loss" as people are, they still have worries. Mooncake residue that is too soft will remain in your teeth.The core of the seam will gradually affect the health of the dog's teeth.
Since traditional mooncakes cannot be eaten by dogs, can "sugar-free mooncakes" aimed at the elderly and diabetics be eaten by dogs? Originally, "sugar-free mooncake" does not mean that it is not sweet, but that it does not contain sucrose or glucose. It uses xylitol, maltitol and other sugars instead of "dried mooncakes made with xylitol, maltitol, etc. It is indeed healthier than traditional mooncakes and is suitable for people with diabetes. However, dogs are different from people and their tolerance to these foods is not universal. American veterinarians have studied that foods containing xylitol may Leading to weakening of the dog’s liver function.” Therefore, "sugar-free mooncakes" containing xylitol should never be given to dogs, as they are more harmful than traditional mooncakes.
In summary, although commercially available mooncakes are delicious, they are not good for the health of pet dogs, so it is better not to eat them. If you eat it, it is also a good idea to buy mooncakes for dogs or make some other small foods. A healthy diet can not only reduce the dog's physical resistance but also make the dog live a hundred years longer.
