Most of their health problems are similar to ours, but that in no way means that we are well equipped to understand and recognize the signs and symptoms.

First, we need to understand what this condition is and what is the link to our dog’s diet and lifestyle?

The pancreas produces it and acts like a ‘goalkeeper’ that tells the cells to snatch glucose ( along with other nutrients) from the bloodstream. Glucose: A fuel that is a must for our cells ( responsible for energizing them). Our body gets nutrients from the food that is digested as well as glucose. This is then absorbed and travels through the body in the bloodstream. When your dog has diabetes that implies that the glucose-insulin connection is not working properly. In Dogs Diabetes Happens in Two Ways: Diabetes that is caused by insulin deficiency- In this case, the dog’s body does not produce enough insulin which means that either the pancreas is either damaged or not working properly. Diabetes which is resistant to insulin: in this case that the pancreas produces insulin, but the body is not utilizing the same. Dangers of Diabetes in Dogs: Since the cells are not getting the energy that they, need in the form of Glucose, the body breaks down fats and proteins to get the nutrients. High sugar in the bloodstream means damage to the organs as this high blood sugar is like poison for the organs. The kidneys, eyes, heart and blood vessels, and even the nerves of each one of the organs is under threat. Be Warned if the Dog Shows these Signs: Excessive thirst Increased urination Loss of weight Increases appetite Lack of energy Depressed Vomiting How Diabetes Affects your Dog’s Health?
