Pomeranian Dog Cold Symptoms

The symptoms of a Pomeranian dog with a cold include mental depression, indifference, cold ears and nose, teary eyes, red eyes, significantly reduced sense of smell, loss of appetite, picky eating, refusal to eat, increased body temperature, frequent coughing, and difficulty eating. If a dog catches a cold and does not receive timely treatment, it is prone to develop pneumonia. If the dog's cold is not too severe, feeding some Huangqi Polysaccharide Oral Solution can help the dog recover.

Causes of Cold

A dog is likely to catch a cold when its owner does not care for it carefully, allowing the dog to be exposed to cold temperatures and during seasonal changes. Or it may contract the cold virus outdoors. This disease can occur in any season and at any age. It can be transmitted through virus or bacteria-containing droplets, mist, and contaminated utensils.

How to Treat a Cold

When a dog catches a cold, treatment usually involves antibiotics and respiratory medications, such as those containing Ampicillin Sodium. Dogs with a cold usually show symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and coughing. Some dogs may also accompany coughing. There are many similar diseases, such as distemper and pneumonia, so it is recommended to take the dog to a pet hospital for diagnosis and treatment.

Can a Cold Be Cured?

A dog's simple cold can be cured. The main symptoms of a cold are respiratory symptoms, mainly coughing, sneezing, and runny nose. However, the early symptoms of distemper are also mainly respiratory, so it is best to exclude whether the dog has distemper after catching a cold. In addition, when a dog catches a cold, its immune system is weakened, making it more susceptible to secondary infections.
