Proper deworming for dogs is not only to prevent certain parasites from affecting our health, but also because parasites pose a greater danger to dogs. Parasites not only have a certain impact on dogs' health, but can also lead to other diseases. So regularly doing deworming work can not only reduce the impact of parasites on dogs, but also prevent the occurrence of many other diseases

1、 Canine liver cluster worm

Canine liver cluster worm is an infectious disease transmitted by ticks, but it is not transmitted through bites. Canine liver cluster worm is an infectious disease transmitted through ticks. The transmission route and mode of ticks are different from Lyme disease or Listeria. Lyme disease and Listeria are both infectious diseases caused by tick bites. However, the transmission mode of canine liver cluster worm is different. It does not come from tick bites, but from dogs being infected after eating infected ticks. Of course, although canine liver cluster worms are called "canine" liver cluster worms, they do not only infect dogs. Cats can also be infected if they eat infected ticks, so canine liver cluster worms can infect both dogs and cats.

The common symptoms of infection with canine liver cluster worm are vomiting, diarrhea, fever, lack of energy, decreased appetite, gradual physical weakness, muscle and joint pain, etc. However, these clinical symptoms are not specific and cannot be diagnosed based on clinical symptoms. At the same time, these symptoms are also similar to other infectious diseases transmitted by ticks. However, in many cases, after being infected with canine liver cluster worm, there will be no clinical symptoms. These interfering factors include immune system dysfunction, immune anemia, steroid use, glomerulonephritis, severe wall lice infection, etc. In addition, this is also the case in some young dogs. If they happen to suffer from listeriosis, it will also interfere with the diagnosis of the disease. Therefore, The examination of blood smears becomes very important because from blood smears, It can be seen that there are gametophytes of canine liver cluster worms in white blood cells, which is a very important diagnostic basis.

Try to play less in grass and other areas to prevent infection with parasites

2、 Canine Ellison Syndrome

Canine Ehrlichia is a common blood parasite infectious disease in dogs. Ehrlichia is a pathogen of rickettsia, which is transmitted through the bite of ticks on the skin of dogs.

After causing infection in dogs, Eriocheir will enter the bloodstream and parasitize on white blood cells and platelets. Of course, these Eriocheir bodies will not be ignored as their damage to the blood system is just beginning. Dogs infected with Eriocheir are not easily detected with signs of infection in the early stages, and the symptoms that can often be seen are similar to those of other diseases, such as fever, poor mental state, sleeping all day long, decreased appetite, weight loss, and even vomiting.

It is actually very simple to check for the presence of E. coli. Just go to the hospital every six months and receive regular blood tests for E. coli. In less than ten minutes, you can know the results of the test. Of course, in addition to regular check ups, it is also necessary to prevent E. coli infection. E. coli is mainly an infectious disease transmitted by ticks.

3、 Charworm syndrome

Charcoal is a blood parasite that parasitizes in the red blood cells of animals. In dogs, ticks are the main source of infection, and the route of transmission in cats is not clear. In addition to ticks, sharing needles for blood transfusion can also cause the spread of Charcoal.

The biggest harm that Charcoal parasites cause to animals is anemia. Dogs infected with Charcoal parasites often experience poor mental appetite, weakened bodies, increased body temperature, weight loss, and pale gums and other mucous membranes. If accompanied by symptoms of jaundice, the mucous membrane surface may also turn yellow. Sometimes, patches of bleeding can even be seen on the skin of the body. In addition, symptoms related to the cardiovascular system such as ascites and edema of surrounding tissues may also occur in some dogs infected with Charcoal parasites. Some gastrointestinal and neurological symptoms may also occur. The clinical symptoms of cats and dogs are generally the same. Feline pyroptosis usually occurs in kittens, with symptoms such as poor appetite, increased breathing rate, diarrhea, thicker fur, pale mucous membranes, rapid heartbeat, fever, etc., all of which are common.

Due to the fact that moths are mainly transmitted by ticks, the prevention and control of ticks have become relatively important. It is important for dogs to use anti tick medication for prevention. If you find ticks on your dog, do not forcefully scratch or squeeze them to avoid infecting yourself.
