Calcium deficiency often shows as a thin body, poor appetite, dull rough coat, and weak walking; severe cases bring seizures or bone problems like joint deformity. Puppies may develop bowed or knock knees.
Deficiency greatly affects dogs; if calcium is low, supplement promptly with calcium-rich food or tablets and more sun exposure.
