What to Do When Dogs Vomit Hairballs

Siberian Husky (Detailed Introduction)
Dogs can also have hairball troubles like cats. Although they don’t groom themselves as often as cats do, dogs inevitably ingest loose hair during shedding seasons. When hair accumulates to a certain extent, dogs may also vomit hairballs. However, this situation is relatively rare and usually appears in dogs with thick coats prone to shedding.
If you encounter a dog vomiting hairballs, the owner can do the following:
1. Frequent brushing: No introduction needed. Especially during shedding season, frequent brushing helps remove a lot of dead and loose hair, boosts the dog’s metabolism, and aids in shedding.
2. Give an appropriate amount of hairball paste: Hairball paste is not only for cats. In households with multiple dogs or mixed cats and dogs, giving dogs a proper amount of hairball paste can help prevent hairball issues.
3. Keep the environment clean and hygienic: Areas in the home prone to accumulating hair should be cleaned frequently. Although dogs do not groom themselves, many dogs lick around, so shed hair can easily be ingested this way.
