  1. What are the symptoms of calcium deficiency in dogs and remedy of this? The body of a dog depends heavily on calcium to function normally every day. The body needs enough calcium to function effectively in a number of ways, including bone development, muscle contraction, and blood coagulation. Dogs will exhibit symptoms of excitation in the peripheral and central nervous systems when the calcium levels are too low. Canine calcium deficiency symptoms Muscle tremors, Twitching, Loss of control of bodily movements (ataxia), Intermittent muscle spasms (tetany), Loss of appetite, Behavioral changes, Listlessness, Weakness, Panting, Fever, Convulsions, Seizures Treatment of Low Blood Calcium in Dogs Numerous variables affect how low blood calcium is treated. Of course, due to the potential for life- threatening complications, your pet will be admitted to the hospital immediately if he is dangerously ill. By IV, calcium-rich fluids will be given. Your pet will be closely watched because high calcium levels (hypercalcemia), which are also unfavorable, can occur. In general, your veterinarian will consider the following considerations when recommending a course of treatment for hypocalcemia: Has an underlying disease been found, and if so what is the prognosis How fast did this event of hypocalcemia develop? What are the severity of signs in the dog? What are the calcium level readings? In cases of mild hypocalcemia, fast acting oral medication and oral vitamin D may be the best therapy. You can take some suggestion from veterinarian for some calcium tablets for dogs, Should I give my dog calcium supplements? If your dog eats a healthy nutritious diet, there’s probably no need to add any calcium supplements to their routine. Considering few exceptions like: Pregnancy – if your dog is pregnant with an outnumbered litter size, she may require more calcium for better uterine contractions and intrauterine fetal movements. Calcium deficiency – if your dog shows bone or teeth deformities like weak, easily broken, soft, fractured, etc., calcium supplementation or calcium tablets for dogs are often an honest thanks to redressing the balance. Are there any side effects? Me and my pet supplements are prepared from 100 % natural ingredients. They are safe and effective with no known side effects.
