Border Collie (definite introduction)
Protein is a very important type of protein in the body Nutrient, the lack of this substance will cause a series of problems in the dog's body, and trigger a series of complications, such as enlargement of the esophagus, chronic diarrhea, etc. Therefore, owners must ensure that their dogs consume a certain amount of protein.
Dogs that lack protein generally appear to be weak, with coarse and rigid coats, reduced body weight, and stunted growth. Loss of appetite, pale mucous membranes, and decreased blood pressure. Severe cases may experience systemic edema. Reduced resistance can easily lead to secondary symptoms.
The total protein content of adult dog plasma is 5.3~7.5g%, and the albumin content is 3~4.8g%. If the total plasma protein drops below 5g% and the albumin drops below 3g%, it may be protein deficiency. Because it is often accompanied by anemia, hemoglobin and red blood cells shrink.
