• Prevention between Wang Xingren and conventional coronavirus?
• Is there a possibility that the current coronavirus will be transmitted to pet dogs?

I. Prevention and treatment between Wang Xingren and conventional coronavirus?

First of all, it should be stated that the conventional coronavirus referred to here refers to the canine coronavirus produced by many puppies, not the current coronavirus.

1. Prevention between Wang Xingren and conventional coronavirus

Canine coronavirus disease is one of the common dog infectious diseases, it will cause dogs to produce gastroenteritis symptoms of different degrees, table symptoms are usually manifested as intestinal inflammation, including frequent vomiting, diarrhea (the classic feature is orange foul smell), anorexia, occasional fever and other symptoms, the condition will last for 3-20 days, puppies will be due to severe dehydration, resulting in electrolyte disorders and death; At the same time, some coronaviruses will break out together with parvovirus infection, and the mortality rate after mixing parvovirus is as high as 83%.

In general, dogs infected with canine coronavirus are mostly unvaccinated, as well as uninhibited female dogs colostrum, etc., this virus mainly invades and destroys the intestinal system, so it occurs in puppies, and can be effectively protected against conventional coronaviruses by vaccination. For all diseases, although treatment is very important, prevention is even more important, and I hope that all shovelers will not take it lightly!

2. Treatment between Wang Xingren and conventional coronavirus

For the symptoms caused by the coronavirus of Wang Xingren, you should actively contact your doctor at the first time for help. Generally speaking, the basic treatment plan for dog coronavirus is as follows, but due to the severity and bias of different pet dog diseases, it is still necessary to consult a doctor in time and seek professional help.

• Rehydration

  Dogs with coronavirus should be given plenty of fluids to correct electrolyte abnormalities. If the dog can eat and drink, only mild diarrhea, no vomiting symptoms, can be eaten and watered, replenishing water to prevent dehydration.

• antibiotic

  Antibiotics are used to control possible secondary bacterial infections as well as inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract.

• Antiemetic

  Follow your doctor’s advice to buy a pet antiemetic for your dog

• Deworming

  Correct use of anthelmintics to prevent the effect of treatment due to parasites.

2. Is it possible that the current coronavirus will be transmitted to pet dogs?

The answer given by the pet doctor is this, the eight-link vaccine is effective in preventing canine coronavirus (we said above about the conventional canine coronavirus), but the coronavirus has too many variations, and the coronavirus of this pneumonia, we have no way to evaluate it for the time being, we can only wait for the official standard answer.

There is currently no evidence that the virus is related to cats and dogs.

 

Third, in the current special environment, how should we protect?

In the past two days, there have been many photos of shoveling officers taking dogs out to wear masks, like cats, which are not good enough to go out, but it is more troublesome to walk pets like Wang Xingren. Many dog owners may also want to take some precautions for Wang Xingren because they are worried, and many shovelers even say that they are very scared when chatting with Guo Ma, and they dare not take them out of the community.

More typical is these two questions, answer questions to solve the puzzle.

• What should I do when walking my dog?
• What should I do if my dog has symptoms of infection?

 

1. Dog walking problem

Recently, the coronavirus is very strong, and Guo Ma’s advice is to try not to go out! That is to say, not going out to walk the dog, on the one hand, can ensure the health of the owner, on the other hand, the health and safety of Wang Xingren can also be effectively guaranteed.

If the dog is really anxious, the shoveler can accompany Wang Xingren to play well at home, on the one hand, you can exchange feelings, pet dogs generally have something to do, someone accompanies, diverted attention, relatively will not have so much willingness to go downstairs. On the other hand, you can also protect yourself and your family.

If you really can’t go out, remember to go downstairs when there are few people, go to places with few people, and don’t go to public places with many people. When you get home, remember to disinfect!

 

2. What should I do if my pet dog has symptoms of infection?

First, there is currently no evidence that the virus is related to dogs and cats.

The new coronavirus (2019-nCoV) of the people found this time is β genus, and there is no evidence that it will infect dogs and cats.

Canine coronavirus (CCoV) and feline coronavirus (FCoV) are α genera and there is no evidence of transmission to humans.

Therefore, if the pet at home has any discomfort, please do not panic and seek medical attention in time.

 

Although the coronavirus is severe, only by protecting it can we be at ease!

For everyone, whether shoveler or not, this coronavirus is a huge blow, with potential hidden dangers. Guo Mama is here to advocate two things to everyone:

One thing is, reject wildlife, starting with me!

The other thing is, isolate the virus but not isolate love!

Don’t abandon your pets at will, only if we unite and be brave in the face of disasters and do a good job of protection, I believe that one day we can defeat the coronavirus! This day must not be far away!
