Sisters who raise Teddy , does anyone still know how to raise dogs to make them healthy and strong? Today I will talk about some of my experiences in raising Teddy. It is mainly for new dog owners. Veterans can avoid it!
1, deworming
Dogs need to start deworming after three months. Basically, internal deworming + external deworming once a month, using both internal and external deworming, 大爱 (fasting for a few hours before and after deworming, Otherwise it will be easy to vomit).
2, health care
(1) Calcium supplementation: Teddy’s legs are very long and thin and are prone to fractures, so you need to pay attention to calcium supplementation. I have been giving my dog Weishi calcium tablets and lecithin .
(2) Gastrointestinal tract: Dogs have a short esophagus and may suffer from indigestion or vomiting. Keep probiotics at home. If you have poor appetite or cannot digest food and water for half a day, adding some probiotics will be much better.
(3) Heart care: Many small dogs like Teddy are born with underdeveloped hearts, and heart disease is not uncommon in old age. When I found that the dog’s heart was not good, I insisted on giving it Huanxinyimeng beef tablets to protect its heart.
(4) Poor endurance: Teddy has a small body and poor endurance. It is very afraid of the cold in winter, so you have to pay attention to keeping warm. Now in summer, try to avoid going out very early or very late to avoid catching a cold. You should take a bath in time. Blow dry.
3. Bathing
Teddy's common problem is fragile skin. Frequent bathing will destroy hair follicles and lead to skin diseases. Therefore, you should comb your hair more often and keep it dry. You should always have erythromycin ointment and the like at home.
4, trimming
The hair must be trimmed regularly, otherwise it will easily become knotted. In severe cases, it will hurt when others touch it, and it will attack people unconsciously.
5. No matter how busy you are, you should walk the dog.
Teddy needs companionship. It is best to walk the dog every day for about an hour. If you really can’t go out, play with it at home for about 3 hours, otherwise the dog will be in a bad mood. Depression. Some are vindictive, hold grudges, and will take revenge on their owners, such as deliberately urinating in places they shouldn't. But you can't accompany him too much, otherwise he will lack independence and will scream anxiously if left for a while.
6. High oil and high salt are not necessary.
Dogs who often eat high oil and high salt are not only bad for the stomach and intestines, but also prone to bad mouth. It can also cause obesity and is not good for the heart. They should eat lightly and do not eat human food. Wipe your mouth clean after eating, otherwise it will affect your appearance.
7, training
Teddy has a high IQ. Once trained, he will be easy to raise. The golden age of training is when he is 3 months old. The owner should seize the opportunity, which will save him a lot of worry later. If he is not good at it, he can find a professional. trainer.
8. The dog leash
is really, really important. Teddy loves dogs very much and will bully others when he encounters small dogs. When he encounters big dogs, he will provoke others because his owner is there. If he does not leash the dog, accidents are easy to happen. , be sure to keep your dog on a leash when you go out! !
