Raising, teaching, and breeding a dog is the art of care. They all require your time, your mind, and also experiences. Below are 4 factors that should be noticed by anyone who is having a dog as a pet.
1. Resting place.
For puppy, the accommodation needs to be warm, not too cold and well-lit with the possibility of sunbathing in the morning from 9 to 11 am.
Puppies' accommodation must have the adequate sleeping and toilet facilities. Put away all the things that puppy can possibly gnaw or swallow: plastic, iron, glass, etc. Especially keep the puppy away from electrical wires, appliances, gas fireplaces, explosives, chemicals and toxic plants. Avoid letting the puppy stay in high places such as windows, balconies, stairs wherever the puppy can easily fall. If your house has other animals: dogs, cats, etc. be careful of the contact between the puppy and them for this can cause the puppy to be attacked, hurt or having other psychological stress due to other animals' attack. Be careful to let the dog lie in front of the fan for the dog is very likely infected by the cold.
2. Diet.
Protein, fat, starch, minerals and vitamins from natural foods should be fed with the suitable amount. Do not overdo drugs or synthetic food. Especially do not feed your dog animal's lung and liver because these food contain many toxins which causing cancer.
Three to four meals a day is the best amount.
Dog's water bowl needs to be always full.
Never feed the dog too full. Feeding tools such as bowls, plates ... must always be clean and dry.
When your dog shows unusual symptoms (vomiting, sadness, diarrhea, etc), stop feeding and invite the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine to consult.
The environment is also a factor that can affect your pet's nutrition intake. In extremely cold weather, dog will be more energetic because the body's natural reflex causes them to consume more energy to balance body's heat. Therefore, you should ask the veterinarian for the details of instruction whenever it is too cold outside.
3. Health care and disease prevention.
Having your dog vaccinated: You should acknowledge your dog's vaccination procedures and have him completely checked by the veterinarian.
"Primary Vaccination" is a very important concept. Dog that is more than 3 months old should be vaccinated at least twice for Care, Pavo, Lepto, Parainfluenza, Wild... and at least 2 times when the dog is 4 months old to treat worms such as chopsticks, hookworm... It is also essential to prevent heartworm from the month of 4th.
Every injection should be labeled, date marked and signed in the dog's health book.
4. Physical activity and entertainment.
After the meal, dogs should be running freely or having some small physical activities for 5 to 10 minutes to digest food more effectively.
Puppies love to gnaw. Therefore, be careful with their playing and chewing toys. Sharp objects or plastic toys can damage or cause your dog poisonous ingestion and gastrointestinal inflammation. It is suggested to look for the fake bones and toys in dog's market that are researched and produced by experts. Or you can use boar skeletons that are boiled, marrow removed, lime soaked for 10 days, dried, sterilized for dog to grawn and grind.
