Metabolic diseases in dogs

Dogs can suffer from a whole range of metabolic diseases. One of the most well-known metabolic diseases is certainly diabetes. In addition, however, hypothyroidism is not uncommon in dogs.

In addition, certain breeds can have problems due to genetic defects. For example, dalmatians suffer from a disorder of the purine metabolism, which must be taken into account when feeding them.

In our guidebooks, we discuss various metabolic disorders in dogs in detail and explain, among other things, what symptoms they cause, how to treat them properly, and what dog owners need to be aware of in order to prevent metabolic disorders in their dog.
