Symptoms of cold and runny nose in dogs

If the dog's nose is watery, it may be a cold and fever. You can touch the nose. If it is dry and hot, it may be a fever. However, if the dog's nasal discharge is yellow-green purulent nasal discharge, it may be canine distemper or pneumonia, and it needs to be sent to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment.

Methods to deal with cold and runny nose in dogs

1. First of all, the dog should be kept warm and protected from the cold. Add warm blankets and soft cushions to the kennel. Do not place the kennel facing the wind vent. Move it to A place where the wind cannot blow.
2. Give your dog a pet-specific cold medicine, such as Gan Ke Ling, to relieve the cough, runny nose, fever and other symptoms caused by the dog's cold, and help the dog recover as soon as possible.
3. Dogs with colds are in a weak stage, so they need to increase their nutritional intake. Feed them fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins, such as apples, pears, etc. They can also feed meats with high protein content appropriately. Helps improve dog's resistance.
4. Feed the dog an appropriate amount of ginger soup to dispel cold. Ginger soup also has the effect of dispelling cold for dogs. Maybe the dog is not willing to drink it. You can use a syringe (throw away the needle part) to give it. It has certain side effects and can only be used appropriately when you catch a cold.
