Generally speaking, dogs are in the puppy stage between 6 and 9 months old. The puppy's resistance also gradually matures as its size grows. If the living environment is unhygienic at this stage, the feeding is not careful, or the deworming is not strict, the puppy will easily get sick. Before you take your dog home, you should clean every corner of your home and disinfect the environment if possible.

Preparation of daily necessities

Pencil: pay attention to the size, do not buy a small one. Food bowls, nests, toilets, etc. should be placed inside, and the space should be large for the dog to move around.

Nest: Try to choose something soft and easy to clean.

Bowls: It is recommended to prepare more than 2, one dry food, one can, and water bowls are not included.

Training pee pads and toilets: Try to use toilets with enclosures to prevent dog urine from splashing outside; pee pads can be placed under the toilet to absorb urine and can be used in unavoidable cage situations. Develop the habit of going to the toilet at designated spots to facilitate cleaning.

Toys: While consuming the dog’s energy, they can also interact with the dog to enhance their relationship.

Dog walking rope: The retractable traction rope can be adjusted by yourself for more convenience.

Water bottles for outings: You can buy ones with buttons, and you can recycle them if you don’t finish drinking.

Poop bag: A must for civilized dog raising, and the one containing a plastic bag is more convenient.

Feeding suggestions

When changing food, you need to follow the 7-day food change method. The feeding methods of puppies at different stages are also different.

Puppies under 3 months old can eat soft dog food soaked in warm water or warm goat milk, 3 to 4 times a day

Puppies over 3 months old can eat hard food, 2 to 3 times/day

For those over 6 months old, it can be reduced to 2 times/day

Deworming knowledge

Dogs go out on the grass, come into contact with other dogs, or You may be infected by parasites if you accidentally eat food containing parasites. Puppies have weak resistance and are more dangerous after being infected by parasites.

Common parasites include fleas, lice, mites, and ticks outside the body, and heartworms, roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, etc. inside the body. Fleas and lice are highly contagious and can make the skin extremely itchy after infection; ticks can suck blood; hookworms and roundworms can cause dogs to become emaciated and have blood in their stools; once heartworm is infected, it is difficult to treat, the cure rate is low, and consumption is high, and both humans and dogs are affected. Suffer.

Regular deworming can prevent dogs from being infected by parasites. Choosing the right deworming drug is very important. When choosing deworming drugs, you should pay attention to:

There are a lot of choices. The anthelmintics endorsed by the factory have stable quality control and are safe and guaranteed.

2. Choose one with a broad insect spectrum, which can effectively kill common internal and external parasites such as fleas, roundworms, hookworms, especially ticks, and can also prevent heartworms.

3. Pay attention to the two ingredients of anthelmintic drugs. The isoxazoline ingredients mainly eliminate external parasites and stimulate the insect’s neurons to increase their excitement and death. Even ticks can be expelled. Therefore, there is no need to worry about risks such as infection caused by ticks, skin redness, swelling and ulceration, anemia, muscle paralysis, or even respiratory failure caused by poisoning. Another ingredient, milbexime, is mainly responsible for eliminating internal parasites. It is a macrolide anthelmintic for internal parasites. It paralyzes the muscles of the nerve cells of the parasite and causes it to die. It is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic. The range is relatively wide among the drugs that work both internally and externally.

4. Choose an anthelmintic drug that is taken internally and has good palatability. There is no restriction on taking a bath. The dog will take the initiative to eat it, which also solves the problem of difficulty in feeding the drug.

5. Provide subdivided specifications according to dogs of different weights: dosing is more precise, and one dose can meet the deworming needs without stacking.
