N’chifukwa chiyani galu amadya nthaka

Nthawi zambiri agalu amadya chilichonse, koma ngati galuyo anayamba kudya nthaka, ndiye kuti mwiniwakeyo angakhale ndi nkhawa. Komabe, pakati pa abwenzi amiyendo inayi ichi ndi chodziwika bwino. Agalu akamadya dothi, udzu, miyala, ndodo, zinyalala, ndi zinthu zina zosadyedwa, angapezeke kuti ali ndi vuto la kadyedwe lotchedwa “picacism” (kuchokera ku Latin pica, forty). Ngati galu amadya nthaka yokha kuchokera ku inedible, ndiye, ngati Wag! akulemba, ichi chikhoza kukhala chizindikiro cha chikhalidwe chotchedwa geophagy. Ndi chiyani - chizoloŵezi chachilendo kapena chifukwa chodetsa nkhawa?

Zifukwa zomwe agalu amadyera nthaka

Kulakalaka kutafuna pansi kungakhale chifukwa chonyong’onyeka kapena kupsinjika maganizo, kapena mwina galuyo anangomva fungo lokoma losanganikirana ndi nthaka. Koma kudya dothi kungasonyezenso vuto lalikulu la thanzi kapena zakudya, ikutero American Kennel Club (AKC). Compulsive geophagia ikhoza kukhala chizindikiro cha limodzi mwamavuto awa:

Anemia

Kuperewera kwa magazi m'thupi mwa agalu ndi chikhalidwe chodziwika ndi kuchepa kwa hemoglobin m'magazi. Malinga ndi CertaPet, kuchepa kwa magazi m'thupi kumatha kuyambitsidwa ndi zakudya zopanda pake. Galu yemwe ali ndi vuto la kuchepa kwa magazi amatha kukhala ndi chilakolako chachibadwa chofuna kudya dziko lapansi pofuna kubwezera kusowa kwa zakudya zomwe zimayambitsa vutoli. Njira yokhayo yodziwira modalirika kuti kuchepa kwa magazi m'thupi ndi kudzera mu kuyezetsa magazi.

Kusakwanira kwa zakudya m'thupi kapena kuchepa kwa mchere

Ngakhale popanda kuchepa kwa magazi m'thupi, kusagwirizana kwa zakudya zokhazokha mwa galu kungayambitse geophagy. Ndipo izi zingasonyeze kuti sakupeza mchere wofunikira pa thanzi. Akhoza kukhala ndi vuto la mahomoni olepheretsa kuyamwa kwa mchere ndi zakudya kuchokera ku chakudya. Kusakwanira kwa zakudya m'thupi la nyama zathanzi ndikosowa kwambiri, choncho onetsetsani kuti mwalankhula ndi veterinarian wanu za kusankha chakudya chabwino kwambiri cha chiweto chanu.

Mavuto a m'mimba kapena matenda a m'mimba

Agalu amatha kudya nthaka kuti atonthoze m'mimba kapena m'mimba molira. Ngati galu ali ndi vuto la m'mimba, amatha kudya udzu, malinga ndi AKC. N’kutheka kuti kudya udzu mwakhama kungachititse kuti dothi laling’ono lilowe m’kamwa.

Zowopsa Zogwirizana ndi Kudya Agalu

Ngati galu adya nthaka, muyenera kumuletsa nthawi yomweyo kuti achite izi, chifukwa khalidweli likhoza kukhala loopsa kwa thanzi lake. Nazi zoopsa zingapo zomwe zimagwirizanitsidwa ndi geophagy mwa agalu, malinga ndi AKC:

• Matenda a m'matumbo omwe angafunike opaleshoni.
• Kudya mankhwala ophera tizilombo ndi poizoni wina.
• Kulephera kupuma.
• Kuwonongeka kwa mano, mmero, kugaya chakudya, kapena m'mimba chifukwa chakumeza miyala kapena nthambi.
• Kumeza majeremusi m'nthaka.

Nthawi Yoyitanira Dokotala Wanyama

N’chifukwa chiyani galu amadya nthaka? Ngati akuchita izi chifukwa cha nkhawa kapena kutopa, musachite mantha, koma lekani khalidwelo nthawi yomweyo. Komabe, ngati galu amadya nthaka ndi udzu nthawi zonse kapena amachita mosiyana ndi nthawi zonse pambuyo pake, muyenera kulankhulana ndi veterinarian wanu. Adzafufuza galuyo ngati ali ndi vuto lililonse la thanzi lomwe lingapangitse kuti achite zimenezi. Dokotala adzayang'ana ngati chiwetocho chili ndi matenda omwe angayambe chifukwa chodya nthaka.

Momwe mungatetezere galu wanu ku geophagy

Ngati chomwe chimayambitsa geophagy mu galu ndi vuto la thanzi kapena kusalinganika kwa zakudya, kuchiza zomwe zimayambitsa kapena kukhazikika kwa zakudya ziyenera kuthandizira. Koma ngati galu wayamba kudya dothi ndipo wakhala chizolowezi, mukhoza kuyesa njira zotsatirazi::

• Musokoneze galu wanu akayamba kudya dothi. Mutha kuchita izi ndi kulamula kwapakamwa kapena mokweza, kapena kumupatsa kuti azitafune chidole.
• Sungani galu wanu pa leash nthawi iliyonse mukuyenda kuti muthe kumutsogolera kutali ndi malo otseguka.
• Chotsani zomera zamkati kapena kuziika bwino pomwe mwana wanu sangakwanitse.
• Chotsani zobzala m'nyumba m'miphika m'nyumba kapena kuziyika pamalo omwe chiweto sichingathe kufikako.
• Onetsetsani kuti galu wanu ali ndi masewera olimbitsa thupi okwanira komanso kutengeka maganizo kuti athetse nkhawa kuti asadye dothi chifukwa chotopa.

Izi zingathandize galu wanu kuthana ndi zovuta zilizonse zomwe zingatheke m'moyo wake, monga kusintha kwadzidzidzi kwa chizolowezi kapena banja, kulekana. Mwina chiweto chimangofunika nthawi kuti chizolowere.

Ngati njira zomwe zaperekedwa sizikugwira ntchito, chithandizo cha katswiri wophunzitsa zinyama kapena kakhalidwe ka zinyama chingafunike.

Ngakhale geophagy ndi yofala pakati pa agalu, sikuli bwino kulola chiweto kutero. Mwamsanga kuchitapo kanthu kuti aletse khalidweli ndikupeza zomwe zimayambitsa, zimakhala bwino kwa thanzi la galu.
