Name: Baymax

Age: one year and four months

Gender: Male

Baymax came to me in April 2018, when everything was normal because the weather had slowly entered the summer and the weather began to be hot.

In November 2018, the weather slowly cooled down and began to enter winter. When the

weather became cool, I was afraid that it would be cold, so I bought a sweater like this.

Found that when he had a fever, he began to lose his spirits, his body was a little hot, his nose was a little dry, he always lay on the ground, and when he went out to play, he lay on the ground and did not move. Later, he thought it was because he had a fever, his body was hot and dry, and he always wanted to lie in a cool place.

Go to the pet hospital to take a temperature, 42 degrees, played a fever injection, by the way gave me a thermometer, let me take a temperature every 2 hours at night, during which the doctor said that the clothes did not play a role in keeping out the cold, but disrupted the dog's ability to self-regulate the temperature, here is a warm reminder: the dog has the ability to self-regulate, if there is no habit of wearing clothes since childhood. Don't dress the dog casually.

At noon, I went to the hospital for an injection. As a result, in the afternoon, Baymax's body was very cold. He felt that he had no body temperature. Even the small foot pad was cold. He went to the hospital again. The result was that the amount of antipyretic injection was too large. At that time, I greeted the doctor silently in my heart. It was really important to choose a reliable doctor.

He came back to take his temperature every 2 hours (later he was too sleepy and the dog fell asleep), wiped his ears and foot pads with alcohol, and cooled down physically. The temperature dropped from 42 degrees to 39 degrees, and there was white liquid in the middle, like phlegm.

So every day to injection, three injections a day, an injection of 40, for a week, the body temperature is always above 39 degrees, did not drop, the dog also suffered, then the doctor said suspected canine distemper, let the test, when the test results I sat beside crying, fortunately not canine distemper.

Later changed the pet hospital, explained the situation before, the doctor gave the child to drink cephalosporin granules, according to the weight (70 kg) twice a day, three bags at a time, so two days.

I have also learned some lessons and summed up my experience.

1. If the dog has no habit of wearing clothes since childhood, it is recommended not to wear them.

2. It is very important to enhance the dog's resistance.

3. It's important to find a reliable pet hospital and doctor, otherwise the dog will suffer.

To increase resistance, I chose Madeleine's DHA formula goat milk powder, which has the effect of strengthening resistance. It is suitable for dogs of all ages. Baymax is eaten every night before going to bed. Pay attention to warm water brewing.

Raising a dog for the first time, many things need to be learned and accumulated slowly, to enhance the dog's resistance, to make the dog less sick, to be a healthy dog, and to spend every day safely. But like this kind of fever treatment for a week has not been good hospital can not choose, sick in time to see a doctor, do not be penny-wise and pound-foolish.
