Ukuxilongwa nokwelashwa kokuwohloka komqondo ezinjeni

Njengoba isilwane sikhula, umnikazi angase abone ukuncipha komsebenzi kanye nekhono lokugijima nokugxuma. Abanikazi abaningi bayamangala lapho bezwa ukuthi izilwane zingaba nezinguquko ezihlobene nobudala njengokulahlekelwa inkumbulo. I-Canine dementia, eyaziwa nangokuthi i-canine cognitive dysfunction (DDC), isiba yinkinga evame ukwanda njengoba ukuthuthuka kwezokwelapha zezilwane kukhulise isikhathi sokuphila ezinjeni.

Ubuchopho benja buyaguga

Ngokusho kwe-Journal of Veterinary Behavior, izinja ezinokukhubazeka kwengqondo zithola ukushintsha kobuchopho okufanayo nokwabantu abane-Alzheimer's kanye nokuwohloka komqondo. Naphezu kweqiniso lokuthi isifo i-Alzheimer's saziwa kabanzi, i-CDS ayikatholi ukusakazwa okwanele kwabezindaba futhi ayitholakali ngaso sonke isikhathi lapho ivakashele uchwepheshe wezilwane. Ngeshwa, abanikazi abaningi bavame ukubuka izinguquko ekuziphatheni kwezinja zabo njengento evamile njengoba ikhula futhi ababiki ngisho inkinga kudokotela wabo wezilwane. Izinguquko ezihambisana nokuwohloka komqondo kwenja zicashile, futhi izinguquko ezenzeka kancane kancane ekuziphatheni kwesilwane kunzima ukuzibona ngisho nakumnikazi oqaphile kakhulu.

Ukwazi izimpawu zokuwohloka komqondo enjeni yakho kuzokusiza ukuthi ubone inkinga kusenesikhathi, uxoxe ngayo nodokotela wakho wezilwane, futhi uthathe isinyathelo kusenesikhathi sokwelapha inja yakho. Abanikazi bezinja kudingeka baqaphele izimpawu zokuguga ezifuyweni zabo.

Izimpawu zokuwohloka komqondo enjeni

Ukuze uhlole ukungasebenzi kahle kwe-canine esilwaneni esifuywayo, sebenzisa uhlu lwezimpawu ze-DISH:

Ukukhathazeka

• Uhamba uya emuva naphambili.
• Ezulazula ngokungenanjongo.
• Ayikwazi ukuthola indlela yokuphuma ekamelweni noma ibhajwe ngemva kwefenisha.
• Ibukeka ilahlekile egcekeni noma ikhohlwe inhloso yokuphumela ngaphandle.
• Ayiboni abantu nezinja ezijwayele.
• Iyayeka ukuphendula izingcingo nemiyalo yezwi.

Ukuxhumana namalungu omndeni

• Okuncane kuya ekuthinteni (ukuphulula, ukunwaya isisu, imidlalo).
• Ibonisa injabulo encane lapho sihlangana.
• Akahlangani namalungu omndeni emnyango.

Imodi yokulala nokuvuka

• Ilala kakhulu emini, ikakhulukazi emini.
• Ukulala kancane ebusuku.
• Ukuncipha komsebenzi phakathi nosuku.
• Ukuncipha kwentshisekelo endaweni.
• Ukungahlaliseki, ukuhamba uye emuva, noma ukujika ekushoneni kwelanga (ukudideka kwakusihlwa).
• Inikeza izwi ebusuku (ukubhodla noma ukukhala.)

Ukungcola endlini

• Ikhulula izidingo ekhaya.
• Uzikhulula endlini ngokushesha ngemva kokubuya emgwaqeni.
• Yeka ukucela ukuphuma.
• Ibonisa ukungcola phambi komniniyo.

Kumakati, lolu hlu lunwetshwa ngezinto ezimbili: ushintsho lomsebenzi nokungaphumuli futhi lubizwa nge-DISHAA.

Ezinye izici

Akuzona zonke izimpawu ezingenhla ezibonisa ukuthi inja inokuwohloka komqondo. Izimpawu ezifanayo zokuwohloka komqondo obuthakathaka zingabonwa ezinjeni ezindala ezihlushwa ezinye izifo. Abanye banenkinga yokubona nokuzwa, okungase futhi kubangele ukudideka nokunciphisa ukuxhumana namalungu omkhaya. Izifo ezilwaneni ezindala njengesifo sikashukela, i-Cushing's syndrome, isifo sezinso nokungakwazi ukuzithiba kungaholela ekungcoleni ekhaya. Ukuhlolwa, ukukalwa komfutho wegazi, ukuhlolwa komchamo negazi, kanye nomlando wezokwelapha onemininingwane eminingi kuzosiza udokotela wakho wezilwane ukuba abone izinkinga zempilo esilwaneni sakho esifuywayo ezihambisana nezimpawu ezifana nalezi ze-DPT.

Kodwa alukho ushintsho ekuziphatheni kwenja okufanele lwephule ubungane benu obuqinile. Ukuqaphela izinkinga ezibangelwa ukuguga kuzokusiza ukuthi ulungise imisebenzi yakho ukuze isilwane sakho sisakwazi ukuzwa uthando lwakho. Uma udokotela wakho wezilwane ehlonze izinguquko zokuziphatha ezihambisana nokungasebenzi kahle komqondo we-canine nezinye izinkinga zempilo, landela le mihlahlandlela.

Ukuphepha ekudidekeni kwakusihlwa

Abantu nezinja ezinokuwohloka komqondo bavame ukubhekana nemijikelezo yokulala ephazamisekile. Izilwane ezifuywayo ezivame ukudideka ebusuku zilala kakhulu phakathi nosuku, kodwa zihlala ziphapheme, zibhekana nokudideka nokukhathazeka ebusuku. Abantu abanokukhubazeka kwengqondo balahlekelwa kalula ukucaca kwengqondo yabo futhi ngokuvamile bayalahleka, futhi izinja ezinokuwohloka komqondo zingase zihambe ziye emuva naphambili noma zizulazule zisuka ekhaya ngokungazi. Ngenxa yalezi zizathu, abantu nezilwane ezifuywayo ezinokuwohloka komqondo akufanele zishiywe zinganakiwe, ikakhulukazi endaweni engaziwa. Umnikazi wenja kufanele aqinisekise ukuthi inomaka ngaso sonke isikhathi nokuthi ayikwazi ukuphunyuka ekhaya noma endaweni yomnikazi wayo.

Ukulahlekelwa imikhuba eyenziwa ngenxa yokujwayela ukuhlanzeka endlini kungaholela ekucindezelekeni kokubili kwesilwane nasekhaya. Ungakwazi ukuhambisa amathoyizi akhe nombhede futhi ubeke umgoqo ovikelayo ukuze ukhawule indawo endaweni engeyona i-carpeted elula ukuyihlanza futhi ihambisane nephepha noma amaphedi adonsayo. Amanabukeni nezikhindi zangaphansi ezimuncayo nazo zizosiza ekuvimbeleni ukungcola uma inja yakho izizwa ikhululekile kuzo futhi unesikhathi sokuyishintsha njalo.

Ukuze ugweme ukungcola endlini, ungathatha isilwane sakho ngaphandle kaningi. Noma ngabe kwenzekani, ungayithethisi inja yakho ngokwephula ukuhlanzeka kwendlu. Inqubo yokuguga ingamethusa njengawe. Kungase kudinge ukuthi umndeni wakho udale, ubumbene futhi ushintshe indlela yawo yokuphila, kodwa ndawonye ninganqoba inkinga yokuguga yesilwane sakho esifuywayo esiyekile ukuzigcina sihlanzekile.

Ukwelashwa kwe-KDS

Ngaphandle kokungcola endlini, enye inkinga engathandeki futhi eyinkimbinkimbi ehambisana nokuwohloka komqondo ezinjeni ukuphazamiseka kokulala. Inja ayihambi nje emuva naphambili phakathi nobusuku, kodwa ngokuvamile ikhala noma ikhonkotha ngenkathi isesimweni somqondo esididekile. Xoxisana nodokotela wakho wezilwane ukuthi yimiphi imithi namasu okwelapha azosiza ukunciphisa ukukhathazeka futhi athuthukise ukulala.

Ukwelashwa okwengeziwe kokungasebenzi kahle komqondo we-canine kuhlanganisa ukunothisa imvelo kanye nokwengeza okunomsoco. Nikeza isilwane sakho esisebenzisanayo, imidlalo efundisayo kanye nokuphakelayo okuzenzakalelayo. Ukuvivinya umzimba kusiza ekuxosheni ubuthongo basemini futhi kushukumise ukusebenza kwengqondo yenja. Ukudla okunomsoco okugcwele i-omega-3 fatty acids kuzosiza ukuvikela amangqamuzana obuchopho emonakalweni ngenxa yokuguga. Xhumana nodokotela wakho wezilwane ukuze uthole iseluleko ngokudla kwenja okusiza ukusekela ukusebenza kwengqondo.

Kanye nokudla okuklanyelwe ukubuyisela nokugcina impilo, udokotela wakho wezilwane angase akwazi ukuncoma isengezo ukuze unciphise izimpawu zokuwohloka komqondo enjeni yakho. Ningaxoxa ngokusetshenziswa nemiphumela engemihle engase ibe khona yomuthi futhi nibone ukuthi iyilungele yini inja yakho.

Ukungasebenzi kahle komqondo ezinjeni kuyinkinga eyinkimbinkimbi engenaso isixazululo esisodwa. Kodwa ngokubekezela, ububele nokunakekelwa, ungakwazi ukunqoba izinselele zokuwohloka komqondo wezinja futhi unikeze isilwane sakho ngekhwalithi ephezulu yokuphila ekugugeni kwaso.
