Male Chow Chows often fight for their mates and are easily injured, so injuries must be dealt with promptly.

An unclean coat is easy to feel, providing a favorable place for the reproduction of external parasites and fungi, causing skin diseases. Therefore, attention should be paid to combing and cleaning the coat in spring to prevent skin diseases.

Autumn

In autumn, Chow Chows have strong internal secretion, appetite and food intake. Summer hair begins to fall off and autumn hair begins to grow. At the same time, it is the time of year The management methods of the second breeding season are similar to those in spring.

Food is abundant in autumn, so the amount of food should be increased and the quality should be improved to make physical reserves for the winter.

Winter

The weather is cold, and the focus of management should be on preventing cold and heat preservation and preventing respiratory diseases.

Summer

The air is humid and the climate is hot. Pay attention to preventing heat stroke, moisture and food poisoning.

Chow Chows are prone to heatstroke in environments with high temperatures and high humidity because it is difficult to dissipate body heat.
