Alaska is one of the large dogs that people prefer in China. It is furry, like a large pillow, and has a relatively docile personality, but why do few people raise it? The reason is inseparable from these 7 points.
①Required living space
Alaska is a large dog, so the living space it needs is very large. Nowadays, many people live in communities and other areas, and there are not many places to satisfy it. If the living space is too small, you still have to keep it, it is not only making things difficult for yourself, but also making things difficult for it.
② Use
It looks tall and mighty, like a handsome man who can protect people, but its personality is very gentle and clingy, and even a coward. Although it is very cute, if you want it to protect you, you may not be able to do it. Instead, it will hide behind you and let you protect you.
③Dog hair is flying all over the sky
Alaska was originally a dog in a cold area. It has double layers of hair to keep it cold, which is thick and thick. Therefore, if it sheds hair, it will be even more severe. There may be "local snowfall" at home, and it is also a big project to clean it.
④ Exercise energy is very sufficient
Alaska is comparable to the battery with super battery life. As a sled dog, it is very energetic. It often has the owner being exhausted and it is still warming up. And it must have more than 2 hours of exercise time every day, otherwise it will be fine if it is damaged.
⑤ I will really "tear the house"
Alaska can really deserve its title of "tear the house". Otherwise, I can't be the big fool in sled three silly without any real skills. So if you keep it, the furniture at home will inevitably be "secondary transformation". The pet owner must have a strong psychological endurance to provoke it.
⑥ Poor independence
Its personality is relatively clingy and dependent on its owner, so its independence is relatively poor. When encountering any problems, it will ask its owner for help. Moreover, it is simple, friendly and docile to others, and is easily deceived.
If you want to improve its independence and ability, you should train it more, take it out to make friends with other dog friends, encourage it to complete tasks by itself, etc. If you perform well, you can reward it with snacks, and it will be more sensible and obedient.
⑦Four-legged gold-swallowing beast
Holding large dogs is a big challenge. Raising Alaska is even bigger than other ordinary pet dogs, so its daily expenses will naturally not be low. Just saying that it will be more expensive than others when taking a bath.
Furthermore, it is still very edible and is a dry food king. The dog food specification is crazy, so the feeding cost of raising it will be very high. It is definitely a four-legged gold-swallowing beast .
But if you want to save some overhead, it is recommended to choose a cost-effective dog food for it, which not only meets its nutrition, but also does not eat up the money.
Conclusion: Do you want to challenge raising an Alaska?
