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.

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?
