Common causes of shock in dogs:

1. Ischemic shock that may be caused by traumatic hemorrhage.

2. It may be septic shock caused by viruses and bacteria.

3. It may be anaphylactic shock caused by a certain drug.

4. It may be neurogenic shock caused by severe pain.

5. Cardiogenic shock may be caused by cardiac dysfunction.

6. It may also be traumatic shock caused by fractures, burns, etc.

First aid measures for dogs in shock:

1. Shock is caused by traumatic blood loss and severe pain. The bleeding should be stopped urgently and the pain should be relieved appropriately. If there is a fracture, it should be fixed first to prevent secondary injury.

2. Let the dog lie down on the air circulation place, raise the lower limbs, lower the head, and apply a wet towel with cold water to help the venous blood return.

3. Ensure breathing. If the breathing is weak, irregular or stops, untie the collar immediately, open the mouth, remove saliva, blood, vomit or any foreign matter in the mouth, and perform artificial respiration.

4. Dogs with hypothermia should keep warm. You can raise the room temperature or add a quilt to keep warm. People with high fever can use an ice pack or a towel soaked in cold water to apply to the head to help cool down.

6. If the pulse cannot be measured, the heartbeat can be directly detected on the left side of the chest near the back of the elbow.

7. After simple treatment, the sick dog should be sent to the dog hospital for diagnosis and treatment immediately.
