rickets in a dog


this is a very bad case of rickets as dog was in so much of pain.the rickets occur as a result of calcium deficiency but only this is not the factor. along with it phosphorus is also responsible. in blood serum the level of calcium and phosphorus should be checked for exact treatment.some times you supplement the dog with extra calcium in the diet but the absorption is improper. some hormones are also responsible for this. so for proper absorption you may need to need to supplement your dog with vitamin d3.for treatment of dog proper diagnosis is necessary..
