我將國外有同樣狀況的主人得Q&A 引用自此給你多一些思考方向
It is important to note that there are other causes of odd tail movement/flaccidness; some of them serious and requiring immediate veterinary attention.有一些因素會導致狗狗尾巴異常.其中狀況更是嚴重性的一定需要需要獸醫師立即性的處理
1.Your dog's tail may have an injury -- caught in a door, someone grabbed the tail or anything that physically pulls on it, causing muscle separation/tearing.
狗狗尾巴受到外力導致受傷~譬如說被門夾傷;被人或物體拉扯尾巴導致肌肉撕裂傷等等
2.A bite wound or other skin-damaging wound that could become abscessed, requiring drainage and antibiotics.
有咬傷口或是皮膚受損的傷口發炎變成膿瘍.
3.Anal sacs that are impacted or infected can also cause a dog to hold the tail down and be protective of the area and painful.肛門腺感染發炎造成膿瘍腫痛
4.A dog that is scared, in estrus, or not feeling well in general may hold the tail down, as tail position is an important way for dogs to communicate.狗狗處在發情期,動情期 會出現害怕 感覺不舒服時 狗狗的尾巴位置是很重要的溝通方式
5.Back problems or injury背部(脊椎)出現問題或損傷
5.Generalized weakness from neuromuscular or metabolic disease當神經肌肉或代謝性疾病時一般身體整體狀況也會變得虛弱
Any time your pet is in pain or not feeling well warrants a call to your veterinarian. This article is not intended to "diagnose" a limp tail; as noted that there may be other reasons why a tail is limp that could be quite serious. Your veterinarian can advise you if any treatment or pain medication is necessary. Because it is not often known what the cause is, please see your veterinarian first before administering any home remedies such as aspirin or other medications (it is not advised to give acetaminophen or ibuprofen at all, unless under veterinary supervision).
末了這段提醒就是要讓主人們當發現狗狗尾巴出現異常反應時
要知道至少有哪些方向須要觀察思考並提供給獸醫師做鑑別診斷的參考資訊
我自己親身的經驗 有一天旺旺尾巴垂下來不願意人碰觸 我仔細回顧一整天旺旺的生活狀況
找出旺旺太興奮猛搖尾巴激烈敲擊狗屋內的木板門造成尾巴末端折斷腫脹,
帶去獸醫院檢 查證實我的觀察是正確的
