Causes of gastroenteritis in dogs:

1. Primary gastroenteritis is mainly caused by improper feeding, uneven hunger and fullness, eating spoiled or difficult-to-digest food, and mistakenly taking strong irritating drugs. This kind of lesion is more common in dogs that overeat animal viscera, bones, and meat.

2. Secondary gastroenteritis occurs in certain infectious diseases (such as canine distemper, coronavirus disease, canine parvovirus) and parasitic diseases (such as hookworm disease, coccidiosis, whipworm disease, balanomiasis, toxoplasmosis) gastroenteritis caused during the course of the disease.

Prevention of gastroenteritis in dogs:

1. Reasonable feeding to avoid uneven hunger and fullness. After the dog is overly hungry, it will lead to overeating, indigestion, and more prone to gastroenteritis.
2. Strengthen nutrition and enhance resistance. When the dog's resistance decreases, its gastrointestinal barrier function is also weakened accordingly, leading to a large number of intestinal pathogenic bacteria and eventually causing gastroenteritis.
3. Avoid abusing antibiotics. The use of antibiotics can cause intestinal flora imbalance, which can cause superinfection and cause gastroenteritis.
4. Strengthen management. Prevent gastroenteritis caused by eating unclean food in pet dogs.
