Check your dog's health by observing the "gums color"

Taking care of a dog is not easy for many people, right? In addition to taking care of food and the environment, taking care of physical health, especially dental and gum health, is something that many dog owners should not neglect. Because the color and characteristics of the mucous membrane can be used to assess the initial health of the dog. It is said that the color and characteristics of the mucous membrane are considered a good representative for assessing the initial health of the animal because this organ is the most distal tissue that can indicate the state of blood circulation and the amount of oxygen that nourishes the body. Since the mucous membrane is a relatively thin area with a large amount of blood vessels, if there is a change in blood circulation, we will be able to easily observe it, especially the mucous membrane at the gums. There is an easy way to check the health of the teeth and gums of a puppy. The normal color of the gums is pink. The gums should be moist, not dry or swollen. When you press the gums with your finger and release, the gums should change from white from pressing to pink again within 1-2 seconds, which means good blood circulation. If it lasts longer, it indicates abnormal blood circulation, which can be caused by many reasons. What does the color of the gums indicate?

Don't ignore! Dogs are scared, problems indicate the dog's mental state.

Have you ever seen a dog being aggressive, threatening or barking at others? We might think that this is normal for dogs. Who would have thought that it might mean that the dog is afraid, stressed or anxious about the environment it is facing, to the point of affecting its mental state? Of course, no one wants to see their dog feeling afraid or anxious, right? But what should you do if your dog shows signs of fear? Let's try to understand the problem of fear in dogs. Dogs are like people who will respond to things around them. When something happens that has a serious effect on their minds or lives and that event happens again later, those things will become deep-seated fears because fear is often the result of past experiences. The causes of fear in dogs can be caused by many factors, such as never having left the house to meet strange people or dogs, or a sudden change in environment can make dogs feel unsafe, anxious and scared until they become stressed. Especially if our dogs have bad experiences with strange people or dogs, or have been hurt or injured before, they may choose to protect themselves by showing aggressive behavior. A dog being afraid definitely has a negative effect on their mental state, but it can be a big problem for owners when they need to take their dogs out of the house...
