heaty simply means the dog's body is 'yit hei' in Cantonese. Other than encouraging your dog to take more water, you can try giving your dog some juicy stuff...like green apples, carrots etc
one of the puppy.com members once gave me some good advice. Try giving some FRESH (not the canned ones!!) coconut water....
try not to depend on medication too much for your dog. try the natural therapies first.
How much the coconut water should b consumed? Every day o ...? Wat abt some fruits? Izzit wil help to reduce the heaty oso?
Sorry ya.. too many questions to ask.. I think my shin tzu oso heaty now got many spot at her stomach there..
I hv tried the coconut water for 2 days but didnt saw any improvement.. and now i everyday give her some fruit like apple n honey dew.. but the spot stil there.. wat i can do to reduce it?
N i found out tat my shin tzu body temperature is a bit higher than last time.. izzit normal?
1. Maybe the floor has dust mite, is your pup like to sleep under the table & chair or bed?
2. The floor wash detergent was could be too strong for her fragile skin, try to mop the floor with plain water after the detergent or get a mild floor wash detergent..
3. Try to apply some apple cider vinegar or self made lemon juice (no sugar) on her belly, bcos lemon & vinegar are acid base it kill germs.
4. Check out your pup food, as my little pup cannot take beef, if taken red spots will appear
5. Train her to pee one spot, train her not to sleep on the spot that she pee. As for my pup he pee in his cage when i use the toilet. Otherwise he will use the toilet, I never allow him sleep or play in his cage & toilet..

Thx chrissong & chanol.. very appreciate all ur reply..
Bcoz too worry liao.. n somemore my pup got some skin problem so last saturday bring her to visit the vet.. the doc said there are mark not heaty.. but the mark bcome more n more appeared on her stomach.. so confuse...
Last time my ex-housemate pup oso got such spots, n she told me it is heaty caused, so when i saw my pup oso got such spot i tou she is in heaty oso..
Anyway now feel better (not so worry) bcoz at least got visited the vet.. but it cost me a lot...
The vet only gave me a bottle of liquid to feed my pup bcoz her skin is infected by bacteria.. but for the mark thing the vet didnt do anything juz told me it is normal, shin tzu hv many marking..
Is it true?

If the vet say the mark is normal, how come he give you a bottle of liquid that don't know what is it to ur pup and say is for bateria??? Very confusing la........
What I think your pup is OK. There is nothing wrong with the spot on ur dog just heaty it will go away soon. That why the vet maybe just give you some skin supplement that it and I think the vet know ur pup will be fine.
The bottle of liquid is for my pup skin's infected by bacteria.. bcoz my pup oso got a few like pimples thing on her skin n the vet said the pimples thing are infected by the bacteria.. i dun hv camera at my side now if got can take the photo n let u see but no..
Yup.. the vet got take some sample of my pup skin n watch under the microskop..
The total cost of the vet is RM170++.. going to bankrapt liao..
Oops.. the RM170+ are included the tablet for the heart worms 1 that cost RM 96 adi.. so the cost for the consult + the bottle of liquid is abt RM70+ lo..
Izzit too expensive??
But the bottle of liquid r quite working on my pup bacteria infected skin.. now the pimple thing bcome less n recovering now.. cost a lot but effective then ok la..
but i dislike the attitude of the gal in the vet there.. very impolite.. on the morning b4 i went there, i make a call there n asking the business hours n then gal aswering me so rude..
