Please read the following information patiently and carefully!! It's all about the detailed answers to the questions you ask and some of my personal experiences!! I hope it will help you somewhat!!

Baby dog pica, eating soil, digging walls, licking the ground, biting stones, etc. - that is, lack of (trace elements), is not a big problem. It is more common in puppies, especially when the dog has nutritional imbalance or teething or tooth replacement. It is recommended to buy dog chewing gum for the dog to shift the dog's target.

Most dogs are more or less deficient in a certain trace element, but zinc and calcium are the most deficient. The reaction of dogs to vitamin deficiency is also different, but most of them will eat soil or lick wall skin, and some dogs like to gnaw grass. It's very simple to buy a bottle of zinc gluconate tablets from Hainan for the dog to eat, feed it once a day, 3-5 days.

Very cheap, about 5 yuan. In addition, adding a variety of vegetables to the dog's food and letting the dog bask in the sun is also necessary to supplement various trace elements. Some dogs will bite weeds and wall bark or cinders, which is caused by a lack of vegetables.

If a dog only eats animal proteins such as meat, liver, and fat, the digestion of the stomach will deteriorate. This is due to an increase in the secretion of stomach acid and nausea, and even vomiting of yellow, sticky foam. Not only that, but it will also produce constipation, as well as microvascular bleeding in the mucous membrane of the gums and **, and due to the accumulation of cholesterol in the blood vessels, it is easy to cause cerebral hemorrhage.

In addition, it also has a significant impact on the bones, due to calcium precipitation in the bone tissue, the part will be hot, painful to touch, and limp when walking, to this point, there is no way to recover, and these reasons are due to the lack of vegetables. For the above reasons, when you are refused to feed your dog vegetables and fruits, you should not be discouraged, and you should mix celery and rape with meat more carefully and coax it to eat. In addition, although carrots are rich in vitamin A and carotene, they are easy to be excreted with feces after chopping and cooking.

Fruits are rich in vitamin C, which is also helpful for dogs. 。It may be a habit of the puppy, or it may be that there is a smell on the sofa that the dog likes, could it be that the food fell on the sofa and was not dealt with thoroughly in time?

Also, in addition to licking the floor or sofa, does the dog lick a certain part or hair on its body? If all of the above reasons are ruled out, then the dog is the situation I mentioned earlier!

Dogs generally like to lick, it's in their nature.

Explain that it likes to be on the sofa.

It may be pica, it is recommended to go to the pet hospital to check it and buy some trace elements for your dog to eat.
