[Share of pet experience] What should I do if my dog is calcium-deficient?

The lack of calcium in dogs is caused by excessive single diet combinations. So the pet owner does not have to feed the dog a single dog food. He can cook some big bone soup and old hen soup for the dog to drink in moderation, or use high-quality protein-rich ingredients such as shrimp skin, beef and mutton, and beans.

However, some dogs have poor gastrointestinal absorption, and the nutrients in the high-quality protein in the ingredients cannot be converted and digested very well. Even if the pet owner cooks a lot of nutritious diet for the dog to eat, it cannot digest and absorb the nutrients in the ingredients, and calcium deficiency will occur. Then, the pet owner can consider feeding the dog some pet stone sculptures, such as the more common one: Wang Liji. When feeding, you can immediately let the dog lick it or mix it in the ingredients and feed it together.

 Ultimately, during the period of supplementing calcium and zinc for dogs, pet owners should also choose sunny days and take their dogs to the outdoors to bask in the sun, so that the ultraviolet light in the sun can produce vitamin D3 to help the dog convert and digest and absorb the high-quality protein nutrients they eat. Going outdoors more can also please the dog's emotions and consume unnecessary calories in its body. This will make the dog's appetite widen after exercise and exercise, but it is actually a good way to kill two birds with one stone.
