is it good to give Parle G to a street dog!

She is well and has given birth to so many pups almost every breeding season. Perhaps Street dogs are very hardy. There are several foods that are forbidden for dogs especially breed dogs that can be given to street dogs. In a nearby temple, there is a dog who is alive eating khhitchri prasad in a local temple every day. And there is this hawker who feeds fried puri or chhole bhature to some street dogs.

How to know about abnormal fluid or air in a dog’s pleural cavity?

You can suspect abnormal fluid or air in a dog’s pleural cavity from a mix of clinical signs , physical exam , and imaging findings. 1. Clinical Signs These are often the first clues: Dyspnea – fast, shallow breathing (restrictive pattern). Orthopnea – prefers standing or sitting with neck extended to breathe. Exercise intolerance – tires quickly. Cyanosis – bluish gums/tongue in severe cases. Cough – less common with pleural disease, more with lung disease, but can occur. 2. Physical Examination Muffled or absent lung sounds Ventral areas: fluid tends to collect here. Dorsal areas: air accumulates here. Dull percussion note (fluid) or hyperresonance (air). Paradoxical breathing – chest wall moves in while abdomen moves out during inspiration (seen in severe restriction). Heart sounds muffled – often with large effusions. 3. Imaging Thoracic radiographs Fluid : widened interlobar fissures, retraction of lung lobes f...
