First of all, the dog should be allowed to vomit out the food as soon as possible. You can give it a lot of water to help it vomit out the food it can hold. If it can't spit it out, you can consider feeding it some activated charcoal to absorb the held food and let it pass out of the body. In addition, you can take it to a canine doctor to ensure its health.

First: When the dog eats too much, parents should take the dog for appropriate exercise, such as walking and other light exercises. Moderate exercise is very helpful for digestion.

However, parents should pay attention to avoid letting dogs engage in too intense exercise, otherwise it will burden the dog's gastrointestinal tract and cause gastroptosis.

Second: When the dog is already overfull, parents must not give the dog any more food and must not drink water.

Because if your dog eats too dry dog ​​food, drinking water will cause the food to expand in the stomach, which is likely to cause gastric perforation.

Third: When dogs have indigestion, parents can feed their dogs some digestion-aiding drugs such as Jianweixiaoshi tablets, such as probiotics, etc.

Fourth: Some dogs will vomit if they eat too much. This is actually a physiological self-protection.

Usually, parents deprive their dogs of water and food for about three hours, and the dog can vomit out the excess food in its stomach. Basically, it will not have much impact on the dog's body.

What parents need to pay attention to at this time is that they must not feed their dogs too much food next time. If the intestines and stomach are in a state of overfullness for a long time, it is easy for dogs to suffer from gastrointestinal diseases.

Fifth: Refuse to be fed by strangers. Some dogs will eat food fed by strangers when they go out after eating the main meal given by their parents. This can easily lead to overeating. Therefore, parents should train their dogs to refuse to eat food from strangers.

Anti-food training can not only prevent dogs from being overly full, but also prevent dogs from getting food poisoning from eating strangers’ food.

If none of the above five tips can alleviate the dog's overfullness, and the dog vomits at the same time, and the vomit is accompanied by blood or foam, and appears severely depressed, at this time, parents must take the dog to the hospital immediately for relevant examinations. Because being too full is likely to cause gastric perforation, intestinal perforation and other malignant diseases.

To avoid the above situation, parents must feed their dogs regularly and quantitatively, and take their dogs for more physical exercises to enhance their digestive ability.

When feeding your dog, you must control the amount of food you eat.
