What happens when a dog has the rabies virus on it

1.Most dogs will carry the virus in their saliva, but at this time, the dog itself will not get sick, no different from a normal dog, but if a person's wound comes into contact with the dog's saliva, it is likely that the virus in the saliva will enter the bloodstream, so that the person is infected with rabies virus.

2.Dogs with rabies will have a sluggish period, a manic period and a paralytic period, at this time the dog will show some mental symptoms, such as mental mania, etc., aggressive, but the mental state is very poor, the tail is drooping, and some will salivate, bitten by this dog, it will definitely be infected with the virus, and a large amount of serum and immunoglobulin need to be injected within 24 hours.

Carrying the rabies virus will have a reaction is what he has a reaction.

Rabies in dogs:

The presentation is similar to that of a person. One of the signs of the onset is a sudden change in the dog's temperament, which is usually docile and suddenly becomes irritable; Usually violent, suddenly became quiet. The second sign is pica, which is eating things that it cannot eat in normal life, such as dirt, wood, mops, shoes, etc.

The third signal is muteness, i.e., not screaming, lying on its stomach with its mouth wide open and drooling, because its mouthpiece muscles are paralyzed. The fourth signal is to distinguish between unborn people and acquaintances.

However, some are only virus-carrying dogs, that is, there are no obvious symptoms, and the dog that bites is captured, observed for 10 to 14 days, and does not develop the disease, it can be considered that there is no rabies. If the disease occurs during the observation period, it is killed, the brain is taken for pathological section examination of inclusion bodies, or fluorescently labeled anti-rabies virus serum staining, antigen is checked, if it is negative, 10% brain suspension is injected into the brain of rats, and brain tissue is taken to detect inclusion bodies and antigens as above after the onset of the disease, which can improve the positive rate, but it takes about 28 days. If rabies virus RNA is detected with an isotopically labeled synthetic oligonucleotide probe before the onset of the disease, the results will be available in 1-2 days.

Puppies do not carry the rabies virus.

Puppies will not have rabies, because rabies will not be transmitted through childbirth, so the newborn puppy will never carry the virus, and the general incubation period of dogs with rabies is about 15 days and will be sick for up to 6 months, so the chance of newborn puppies getting rabies is close to zero.

Newborn puppies do not have rabies, this is because the rabies virus is not transmitted through childbirth, because the rabies virus does not spread vertically, so newborn puppies will never carry the virus.

And healthy cats and dogs are not contagious to rabies. This is the authoritative statement of the World Health Organization. If licking your puppy and not dying of rabies within 10 days, you will never be able to get rabies, please rest assured.

Normal dogs rarely carry the rabies virus, especially dogs that rarely go out and have contact with other animals. Rabies virus infection has a high mortality rate and usually lurks in the animal's body. As long as the owner vaccinates the dog regularly, the dog will generally not have the rabies virus.

However, it cannot be ruled out that you do not have the rabies virus, because carrying the rabies virus does not necessarily cause the disease, so it is impossible to determine whether you have the virus.

Yes.

Healthy dogs can carry the rabies virus, but the probability of carrying the rabies virus varies from region to region. If you are in a city, most of them are pet dogs, and there are fewer opportunities for contact with wild animals in the outside world, so the possibility of getting rabies virus and carrying it is very small. Pets in many cities are vaccinated against rabies, which further reduces the probability of carrying the rabies virus.

According to some statistics, in larger cities, the probability of dogs carrying rabies virus can even be zero, that is, there are no pet dogs with rabies virus detected, which is safer.

If rabies vaccination can be widely used in dogs, the transmission of rabies from dogs to humans can be further reduced or even eliminated. In rural areas with a high incidence of rabies, the carrier rate of rabies virus in healthy dogs is relatively high, according to relevant statistics, some can even be as high as about 7%, because most of these dogs do not carry out rabies vaccination, and many are free-range, and have more contact with wild animals.

The rabies virus has an incubation period that can range from a few days to several months.

Can a dog with rabies virus get sick? There is a certain chance, and the seedlings must be raised.

For puppies purchased from kennels, the probability of getting rabies is relatively low. If you are accidentally scratched or bitten, it is still recommended to go to the hospital for rabies immunization. The state of the puppy can be observed, generally within 1 month, and if there is no abnormality, there is basically no problem of rabies infection.

Just carrying the rabies virus, the dog will not show obvious characteristics. When a dog has a rabies attack, it will show characteristics such as fear of water, fear of wind, and easy anger. In the later stages of the disease, the dog will also find muscle spasms, body paralysis, and difficulty breathing.

Dogs (Latin canislupusfamiliaris) belong to the phylum Chordates, Subphylum Vertebrates, Mammalia, Subclass Euzos, Carnivores, Schizopodae, Canidae. Also known as "dog" in Chinese, dogs are found all over the world. Dogs were domesticated from wolves.

As early as the hunter-gatherer era, dogs were domesticated as hunting assistants. Therefore, dogs are considered to be the earliest domesticated domestic animals of humans. Dog bones have been found in Cishan in Wu'an, Hebei, Pei Ligang in Xinzheng, Henan, and Hemudu in Yuyao, Zhejiang, which proves that it has a long history of domestication.

The dog-shaped stalk unearthed in Sanlihe, Jiaoxian County, Shandong Province has a vivid and realistic shape, allowing us to see the morphological characteristics of domestic dogs in the Neolithic Age.
