Causes of calcium deficiency in dogs

1. The calcium content in dog food is sufficient, but due to poor absorption function, such as enteritis, loss of appetite, etc., dogs will lack calcium due to malabsorption.

2. The dog has absorbed the calcium in the food, but due to the poor conversion of calcium in the dog's body, the calcium is excreted and the dog is deficient in calcium.

3. The dog is fine in all aspects, but it is calcium deficient because the calcium content in the food is insufficient.

Symptoms of calcium deficiency in dogs

Muscle weakness, poor limb strength, cartilage, O-shaped legs, etc. Therefore, calcium deficiency in dogs does not necessarily mean calcium supplementation. The reason must be found out.

1. Poor absorption function, it is necessary to regulate the gastrointestinal tract.

2. The conversion function is poor, so you need to take the dog to exercise and bask in the sun.

3. When there is a real calcium deficiency, calcium supplementation is required. There are many ways to supplement calcium: giving dogs calcium tablets/giving dogs more bone soup/and various calcium supplement drugs.
