I believe many pet owners have seen their dogs trembling. If they tremble occasionally, they generally don’t need to pay attention to it. But if the dog often trembles, it may be caused by these 5 reasons. The owner must not ignore it and need to be vigilant!
1. Nervous and fearful
If the puppy has just arrived at a new home, it will feel nervous and scared and tremble because it is not accustomed to the new environment. At this time, the owner needs to appease the puppy's emotions and let the puppy get familiar with the environment at home as soon as possible. The situation will improve after the puppy becomes familiar with the environment.
2. Cold weather
Puppies have poor resistance. In winter, their legs may tremble due to cold weather. The owner can observe that if the weather is really cold and the dog has no other symptoms except shivering, it may be caused by too cold. At this time, the owner can put some clothes on the dog and take measures to keep the dog warm and prevent the dog from catching cold.
3. Calcium deficiency
The symptoms of calcium deficiency in puppies are deformed legs and long-term trembling. At the same time, there will also be symptoms such as loss of appetite, indigestion, gradual weight loss, and slow growth. Most of them are caused by long-term monotonous diet or malnutrition. If this is the case, it is recommended to give the dog a reasonable diet, maintain a balanced nutritional intake, and feed it an appropriate amount of meat or bone meal, as well as substances that promote calcium absorption such as vitamins. If possible, you can also let the dog get more sun and exercise to help it supplement calcium.
4. Poisoning
If the puppy, in addition to trembling legs, also foams at the mouth, convulses, etc., it may be poisoned. The owner needs to induce vomiting in the dog in time and send it to a nearby pet hospital for treatment. If not treated in time, the dog's life may be in danger.
5. Leg injuries
If the puppy's legs are injured, the pain will also cause it to tremble and be listless. The owner can carefully check the dog's legs to see if there are any wounds. If there are wounds, the wounds need to be cleaned and disinfected. If there is no wound, but there is obvious pain when pressing the dog's leg, then it is necessary to consider a fracture, and it is best to send the dog to a pet hospital for treatment in time.
