Velike pasme psov so zaradi svoje telesne zgradbe in genetskih značilnosti bolj nagnjene k določenim zdravstvenim težavam. Predstavljamo 𝟱 𝗻𝗮𝗷𝗽𝗼𝗴𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗷𝘀̌𝗶𝗵 𝗯𝗼𝗹𝗲𝘇𝗻𝗶, ki se pojavljajo pri velikih psih 🐾:

𝟭.𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘇𝗶𝗷𝗮 𝗸𝗼𝗹𝗸𝗼𝘃: ena najpogostejših težav pri velikih psih. Gre za nepravilno oblikovan sklep, ki povzroča bolečine, šepanje in postopno obrabo. 🐕‍🦺

𝟮. 𝗧𝗼𝗿𝘇𝗶𝗷𝗮 𝘇̌𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗱𝗰𝗮: zelo resno, celo smrtno stanje, pri katerem se želodec napihne in zavrti okoli svoje osi. Pogosto se zgodi po obroku, še posebej če pes hitro je ali skače. ⚠️

𝟯. 𝗔𝗿𝘁𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗲𝘇̌𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘀 𝘀𝗸𝗹𝗲𝗽𝗶: zaradi večje telesne mase so sklepi velikih psov bolj obremenjeni. To pogosto vodi v kronične bolečine in zmanjšano gibljivost, zlasti v starosti. 🦴

𝟰. 𝗧𝗲𝘇̌𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘀 𝘀𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗺: srčna bolezen, kjer se srčna mišica stanjša in razširi, kar zmanjšuje učinkovitost srčnega delovanja in lahko vodi v srčno odpoved. 🫀

𝟱. 𝗥𝗮𝗸𝗮𝘃𝗮 𝗼𝗯𝗼𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗷𝗮: na žalost imajo velike pasme večje tveganje za določene vrste raka, predvsem kostnega raka. Zgodnje prepoznavanje simptomov, kot so nenavadne otekline ali šepanje, je ključnega pomena. 🎗️

Velja splošno prepričanje, da mačke vedno pristanejo na nogah - vendar to 𝗻𝗶 𝗽𝗼𝘃𝘀𝗲𝗺 𝗿𝗲𝘀. 🐈‍⬛

Res je, da imajo mačke izjemno razvit refleks obračanja v zraku, ki jim omogoča, da se med padcem obrnejo in pogosto pristanejo na nogah.🐾

A ta refleks deluje le, če imajo dovolj časa in višine, da se lahko pravilno obrnejo. Pri padcih z majhne višine tega časa pogosto nimajo, pri padcih z velike višine pa lahko kljub pravilnemu pristanku utrpijo hude poškodbe. Zato je trditev, da mačke vedno pristanejo na nogah, 𝗯𝗼𝗹𝗷 𝗺𝗶𝘁 𝗸𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗻𝗮 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮. 😼

𝗩𝘀𝗮𝗸𝗼 𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗼 𝘇𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮 𝗼𝗽𝗼𝘇𝗮𝗿𝗷𝗮𝗺𝗼 na nevarnosti vročine za pse, ki so žal še vedno prepogosto spregledane. 😕

V vročih dneh poskrbite za svojega psa tako, da ga sprehajate le zgodaj zjutraj ali pozno zvečer, mu vedno zagotovite svežo vodo in senco, nikoli ga ne puščate v avtu ter pazite na znake pregretosti, kot so hitro dihanje in slabost. ☀️

Did you iknow that 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗱𝗼𝗴’𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝘀 𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝘁? It’s true! The patterns of ridges, creases, and textures on a dog’s nose are one of a kind. 🤓

These nose prints are formed by a complex arrangement of tiny bumps and grooves, and what’s fascinating is that they remain unchanged throughout a dog’s life.

Just like fingerprints, nose prints can actually be used as a 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. 🪪

Only 5% of dogs carry the blue eye gene variant in their DNA! That means your blue-eyed pup is truly special - genetically speaking. 🤭

Whether it’s due to a special gene like 𝗔𝗟𝗫𝟰 (common in Huskies) or coat patterns like merle, those striking blue eyes are as rare as they are beautiful.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗸𝗶 is considered the 𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗱𝗼𝗴 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱, with origins dating back more than 5,000 years. 🤯
They were favourites of Egyptian pharaohs and Persian aristocracy. Salukis were often mummified and buried with the nobility, a testament to their exceptional status. 👑

With long legs, elegant build and quiet dignity, they were bred for speed and endurance. They were perfect companions for hunting across vast deserts.

Even today, they retain their calm, noble demeanour and extraordinary loyalty – but like all breeds, Salukis can have a hereditary predisposition to certain diseases. 🧬
