What are the reasons? Let’s talk about some of the more common ones. Dog owners can see if they can help their dogs.
1. Indigestion
If the owner usually feeds the dog greasy food, or often feeds the dog too much meat, canned food, etc., causing the dog to have indigestion, it will produce jelly-like feces during defecation. At this time, the owner can fast for the dog for a day, and then feed the dog some easily digestible food such as porridge, and feed the dog some probiotics to promote digestion.
2. Parasitic infection
Normally, dogs need to be dewormed internally every three months, and externally dewormed every month. If the owner does not deworm the dog regularly, internal parasite infection will cause the dog to have jelly-like feces, and there may also be parasites in the feces. In this regard, the owner should observe whether there are worms in the dog's feces. If there are worms, it can be diagnosed as an internal parasite infection. At this time, the dog needs to be dewormed in time.
3. Infectious diseases
If the dog is young and has not been vaccinated, it will be easily infected with canine distemper and parvovirus due to its poor resistance and immunity, which will cause the dog to have jelly-like feces, and may also be accompanied by listlessness, loss of appetite, vomiting, fever, fishy smell in the stool and other conditions. If you suspect this is the case, you need to take your dog to the pet hospital for testing and diagnosis in time, and then carry out targeted treatment.
