There are many theories on this subject, but no conclusive results have been determined. Research has shown that some factors may include: dietary mineral deficiency, inadequate fiber, nausea, inflammatory bowel disease. Pet owners have reported that when their dog seems sick, he will eat grass, and then vomit. But it is inconclusive which comes first, the upset stomach or eating grass. The most likely reason a dog eats grass is that there is something about the taste that is appealing; perhaps the grass is bitter and tangy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

There are a few documented medical reasons for this action. In many dogs it is unclear why they choose to eat stools, but it may just be one of those weird dog taste preferences. Treatment depends on whether it is purely a behavioral problem or is a symptom of an underlying medical problem. Dogs displaying feces ingestion for what appears to be behavioral reasons, we can prescribe a product that changes the taste of stools, making it undesirable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Cats should never receive Tylenol or any product containing acetaminophen for any reason. Acetaminophen is very toxic for cats; one tablet can cause anemia, bloody urination, and liver disease, resulting in death. In the event your cat ingests acetaminophen contact Brawley Animal Hospital immediately.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Heartguard Plus and Interceptor are the most common oral heartworm preventative products. For optimal performance, the medication should be given once a month on or about the same day each month. If treatment is delayed, whether by a few days or many, immediate treatment with Heartguard Plus or Interceptor and resumption of the regular monthly dosing regimen minimizes the opportunity for the development of adult heartworms.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/article>\n
