A quiet warning of illness
Fractures of the radius and ulna of the forelimb are usually the result of disruption of skeletal continuity in the forelimb due to external forces. Such fractures are more common in small dogs than in large dogs, because small dogs have thinner forelimb bones and less muscle mass than large dogs, and are prone to fractures caused by jumping from high places and unintentionally trampling. Parents with small dogs should pay more attention to protecting the bones of small dogs.
How to avoid the occurrence of their own hair child fracture?
Strengthening exercise can avoid the occurrence of fractures, and strong muscles are a natural barrier to bones.
But small dogs need to be careful when they exercise vigorously, especially all kinds of "miniature dogs". Too many owners treat small children as the apple of their eye, fearing that they will be exposed to the wind and rain, but this is not necessarily the best choice for them.
If we want to give our children a healthy and happy life, scientific feeding management and adequate exercise are very necessary!
