🐾 Attention all dog lovers! 🐶 Did you know that keeping your dog’s water bowl clean can make a big difference in their health? 🥣✨
Pet nutritionist, David, recently highlighted a crucial step that many of us might be missing. It’s super simple: wash your dog’s water bowl every day! 🚰🧼
While it may look clean, an unwashed bowl can build up a nasty biofilm. This slimy layer can harbour harmful bacteria like Salmonella and E. coli, leading to tummy troubles like vomiting and diarrhoea for your furry friend. 🤢
But that’s not all! Communal bowls at parks or outside pubs can be hotspots for viruses such as kennel cough and canine papilloma virus. 😱 Sharing saliva isn’t cute when it leads to health issues!
The solution? A daily clean with hot, soapy water. 🔥🧽 It’s a small step for you, but a giant leap for your dog’s health!
Keep an eye out for symptoms of kennel cough too: a hacking cough, reduced appetite, and low energy. 🤒 While most dogs pull through with just a cough, puppies, elderly dogs, and those with weaker immune systems might have a tougher time.
Let’s keep those tails wagging with some simple, regular hygiene! 🐕💦 #HealthyPups #PetCare #DogLoversUnite
