英国狗主警告在步行后清洗爪子,以避免盐和防冻危险。 UK dog owners warned to clean paws after walks to avoid salt and antifreeze dangers.

当冬天给英国带来寒冷条件时, 狗主被要求在每次步行后清理宠物爪子, 以防路面盐和石膏伤害, 导致烧伤、裂缝和出血。 As winter brings icy conditions to the UK, dog owners are urged to clean their pets’ paws after every walk to prevent injuries from road salt and grit, which can cause burns, cracking, and bleeding. 通过舔舔吸入盐残留物可能导致呕吐、腹泻、颤抖、癫痫或肾脏损伤。 Ingesting salt residue through licking may lead to vomiting, diarrhea, tremors, seizures, or kidney damage. 拥有者还必须注意防冻剂,这是一种高毒性物质,口味甜,可导致快速的、危及生命的肾衰竭和神经问题,即使数量很小。 Owners must also watch for antifreeze, a highly toxic substance with a sweet taste that can cause rapid, life-threatening kidney failure and neurological issues even in small amounts. 如果怀疑摄入,立即提供兽医护理至关重要。 Immediate veterinary care is essential if ingestion is suspected. 简单的行走后爪子清理可以大大减少这些风险。 Simple post-walk paw cleaning can significantly reduce these risks.
