Healthy Tips for Dogs




There are many health benefits of pet ownership. Lowering blood pressure. They are 8 times more likely to live after a serious illness. They block the chronic pain. The owners are taking less medication, consult the doctor less often and hospital stays are shorter. Some dogs may feel sick and have been trained to take on the matter. I pay attention to my dog when he starts to feel a new area in a family member or friend of another animal.

Animal mask his illness. Why? In the real world is not healthy becomes the prey. If you notice your dog to drink more water, which is an indicator of poor health. If your pet sheds more, softer stool or mucus if you notice a piece again and if the wound does not heal, are indicators of poor health. Make check once a week for animals to be aware of the changes. The temperature of your dog should vary between 100 and 103 degrees and can be easily checked with a thermometer ear. Wash your hands before and after playing with your pet achieve a cleaner lifestyle for both you and your pet.

Collect faeces to control pests. Use traps or live traps that your pet can not go to the poison. I use lock boxes of bait with Tomcat to hold down the rodent control. Tomcat can be found at Menards and Fleetfarm.

Can you feel the ribs of your dog? You can see a side view of a Tummy Tuck? You can see a waist size of a view from above? Remember that love = food. Your dog has no part of it, you did it. A dog weighing not live long and have more health problems. If your dog is to care about food because of boredom, change the routine, add new toys to their environment. There are puzzles food / toys that you can put in your daily diet, instead of putting food on their plates. Your pet can not trace your meal in 30 seconds, but will work for 30 minutes or more to get their food. If you give your dog a pleasure to have done something. Use small pieces of carrots, beans, dried peas and salmon. Feed healthy foods and avoid spam.

If you need to give drugs to your pet, give a treat for your pet, then give a treatment with the drug in the treatment and finishing third with a treatment. If the drug is a liquid that can make a funnel with the back of the mouth of your dog (playing less) and pour the liquid there. If your pet spit the pill in her mouth open. Raise the nose to the pill in the wet, put the pill in the back of the tongue, close mouth (his nose is still closed) and blowing the nose. Give your pet a drink of water. This works well for heartworm tablets.

If a dog will pass through a heat or have a range before being fixed? I do not think that the farmer has no advantages, only disadvantages. Fixing our pet for the time recommended to make your pet healthier, less aggressive and less mobile, less of the disease (cancer), skin problems less and the list goes on. There is less scarring (lift leg) and castrated males with prostate problems.

There are basically 3 times your dog wants to go to the bathroom.

1. When he wakes up.

2. After eating

3. After playing

I like to use a command to my dog to go to the bathroom, be quick to find a job or do business. If you use "toilet phase" of your pet can be a relief

when visitors and family ask their children if they need to go to the bathroom.

Be aware of the change, listen to what your pet and you said you have a great pet.
