General identification of healthy dogs and sick dogs
In order to keep dogs healthy, dog owners need to have basic knowledge of keeping dogs and know what kind of dogs are healthy dogs. Healthy dogs are sensitive to changes in the surrounding environment, have a good spirit, are active, have no strange temper or abnormal behavior, are easy to tame, cooperate with others, have a good appetite and do not drink too much water. Healthy posture should be a natural equilibrium curve when standing, limbs erect, no deformity. The forechest is broad, the abdomen is contracted, and the body muscles are plump (especially the buttocks and back muscles), solid and powerful.
The end of the nose is slightly cool, the mouth, nose, eyes, anus, penile sheath or vulva have no secretions, and the hair around the perineum is clean. There were no ulcers and secretions in the mucosa of lip, mouth and tongue. The teeth are strong, white, without tartar or gingival ulcers, and the sclera is not yellow-stained. The joints of the extremities move freely without swelling and tenderness. Animals do not scratch, do not lick and bite the body, neck or limbs, etc. The skin clings to the body wall and is elastic. At the same time, we should pay more attention to observe the daily life of dogs, find abnormalities, and consult a veterinarian in time. The following points must be paid constant attention to:
1. Appetite: dogs are not interested in daily favorite food or good-smelling food, eat less or refuse to eat completely, this is abnormal.
2. Vomiting: dogs and cats are carnivores that vomit more easily. Vomiting may occur if you eat a little improperly. It's not necessarily a disease. If persistent vomiting occurs, attention should be paid to it.
3. Diarrhea: diarrhea in dogs is a sign of illness, especially one after another, and measures should be taken. In particular, dogs that have not been vaccinated against canine distemper should consult a veterinarian as soon as possible.
4. Sneezing or tears: sneezing or tears are the main manifestations of a cold or influenza. If you can see a doctor in time, the general effect is good.
5. the nose is dry and wet. The nose of normal dogs is black and moist. Excessive runny nose may be a cold; if the nose is dry and rough, it is a sign of fever.
6, drinking water barrier dogs often take the initiative to approach the drinking basin and want to drink water. But the water that cannot drink or enter the mouth drips again, nine times out of ten, there is something wrong with the throat, such as pharyngitis and so on. Rabies dogs are extremely thirsty and cannot drink water due to pharynx paralysis. Sometimes the sight of water can cause madness.
7. Shake your head and scratch your ear. This is a characteristic symptom of ear disease. If the ear is dirty and smelly, there may be parasites, and those with dandruff on the tip of the ear may have scabies.
8, salivation oral diseases (such as stomatitis, glossitis, oral mucosal ulcers and dental diseases, etc.) salivation is an animal symptom, at the same time can also smell bad breath. The rabies excitement period is full of salivation.
9, frequent urination or defecation dogs frequently make the action of defecation, but can not defecate, or only trace feces. Dogs with frequent urination may have problems with the bladder or urethra, and those with frequent defecation may have intestinal problems, so you should take the dog to the veterinary hospital in time.
10. Scratching the skin if the dog is restless and frequently scratches its own skin and coat, it means that the dog is parasitized by fleas, lice, or infected with scabies, fungal dermatosis, eczema or pseudorabies. At this time, the dog has a thin coat and may have bald spots.
11. The redder the color of the gums and tongue, the healthier. White is anemia, and it may also be intestinal parasites or hematochezia (parvovirus disease or hookworm).
12. Most healthy dogs run and jump and play with other dogs. If you sleep alone, most of you are in poor health. In short, when the dog appears the above performance or other abnormal situation, after a long time still does not improve, should promptly go to the veterinary hospital for treatment, do not hesitate to delay time.

Breeding items of young dogs
Infancy is the main stage of growth and development, the body is growing rapidly, so it is necessary to provide adequate nutrition. Generally speaking, the body and weight are mainly increased in the first three months after birth, the body length is mainly increased in 4-6 months, and the body height is mainly increased after 7 months. Therefore, different nutrients should be supplemented according to different stages of development. The puppies within 3 months are fed at least 4 times a day. Less frequent feeding can make the dogs feel not full and will not be bored and picky. For puppies aged 4-6 months, their food intake increases, their body weight increases rapidly, and their daily feed requirements also increase.

To separate and purify snake venom, it is known that there are neurotoxins, cardiotoxins, clotting toxins, hemorrhagic toxins and enzymes and other main components. In addition, it also contains some small molecular peptides, amino acids, carbohydrates, lipids, nucleosides, biogenic amines and metal ions, some of which are bioactive or related to biological activity. After purification, the toxic components of snake venom are comparable to that of crude venom.
