Tibetan Mastiff (Definite Introduction)
Helping dogs to feed medicine is not an easy task in itself; Tibetan mastiffs with strong personalities are even more dangerous to feed. However, in order to keep their bodies healthy, we have to feed them drugs, which gives us a big problem. So how do we feed Tibetan Mastiffs medicine? Let’s introduce the method below.
1. Method of self-feeding and medication for Tibetan mastiffs: If the sick dog has an appetite and the medicine to be fed does not have a special smell, it can be self-medicated by grinding the medicine into fine powder before feeding. , mix it in the dog's food, and let it eat on its own. When feeding medicine, if several dogs eat medicine together, they should be separated to prevent poisoning due to some taking too much medicine, and some not being able to get up after taking too little medicine. to adjust efficiency.
2. Method of licking and administering medicine to Tibetan mastiffs: When the sick dog has a poor appetite and the medicine has a particularly strong smell, the medicine can be ground into fine powder, mixed into the broth and allowed to be licked by the dog.
3. Method of dosing the Tibetan Mastiff with the medicine injector: When the sick mastiff refuses to eat and the amount of elixir is large, you can first use a Baoding cage to fix it, and then use the medicine medicine injector to forcefully administer the medicine. The method is: make a special hardwood stick with a hole in the center for the dog to bite, insert the artificial catheter (gastric tube) through the small hole from the mouth through the esophagus into the dog's stomach, and put a syringe filled with medicinal solution on the other end. Slowly inject the liquid into the stomach. Before instilling the medicine, first place the tube at one end of the tube in the water basin and watch to see if any bubbles appear. If bubbles appear, it means that the medicine tube is not inserted into the stomach but into the lungs. At this time, the tube should be inserted into the lungs instead of the stomach. The catheter must be pulled out and re-inserted, otherwise the medicine will be injected into the lungs and the dog will die due to water in the lungs.
