The Harm of Dogs Eating Too Much Salt, What Are the Symptoms When Dogs Eat Salty Food?
Friends who have raised dogs all know that dogs should not eat too much salt. If dogs eat too salty food for a long time, it will affect their health. Therefore, pet owners must control their dogs’ salt intake. Today I will talk about the harm of dogs eating too much salt and what symptoms appear when dogs eat salty food.

1. Frequent Drinking
The most obvious phenomenon is that, like humans, dogs will feel thirsty and want to keep drinking water. If it's not due to hot weather causing thirst, then the owner should consider the salt content in the food and adjust it timely.
2. Tear Stains
If the dog has eaten too salty food recently, its eye discharge will increase, causing tear stains (of course, aside from congenital factors). This indicates excessive salt in the food. At this time, the owner should check the food promptly and change the feeding method in time.

3. Frequent Urination
After eating too salty food, dogs will consume a large amount of water in order to expel the salt in their bodies. Frequent urination will lead to loss of calcium and other nutrients, which is not beneficial to the dog’s health.
4. Hair Loss
If you find your dog is shedding hair severely recently, and you have ruled out seasonal shedding and skin disease, then excessive salt intake is the cause of hair loss. Owners should pay attention to the diet and adjust it in time, focusing on a light diet.
