What should I do if Alaska has a cold? Do you also want to treat your dog’s cold by yourself? So what kind of medicine is best for you? The following editor will introduce to you the introduction of medicine for Alaskan sled dogs.

Introduction to Alaskan Malamute plus medication:

Symptoms of a cold in Alaskan dogs: low energy, lethargy, like to lie down, runny nose; sneezing and coughing, conjunctival congestion, tearing, loss of appetite, elevated body temperature, generally 39 to 40°C.

1. Cold granules: I have not found the specific dosage, so I can only give you my experience value. If your dog is very large and weighs more than 80 pounds, you can follow the adult dosage. My current dog at home weighs 30 pounds. I usually drink half a bag each time, twice a day. If your dog is very small, a small spoonful of it, such as a Chihuahua, is enough. Anyway, for a mild medicine like cold granules, a little more won’t be a big problem.

2. Antiviral oral liquid: Using my dog ​​as a reference, take one pill at a time, twice a day.

3. Amoxicillin: 10 to 20 mg/kg 2-3 times a day for 5 days.

What other diseases can Alaskan dogs cause if they catch a cold?

1: Fever

Fever is a common sign of illness and should not be taken lightly. The normal body temperature of dogs is slightly higher than that of humans, about 38.5 degrees, and the body temperature of puppies is higher.

　2: Encephalitis, canine distemper

The cause of trembling is nervous system problems, which may be encephalitis or canine distemper. If you find that your Alaskan dog is trembling morbidly, take your Alaskan dog to the hospital as soon as possible.

3: Loss of appetite

There is no abnormality in the food, but the Alaskan dog’s food intake has dropped significantly, which may be due to illness.

　4: Difficulty breathing

The respiratory rate of Alaskan Malamutes is significantly accelerated and the breathing depth is increased. They may suffer from respiratory diseases, such as tracheitis, pneumothorax, etc.
