1. Feeding precautions
Feed once or twice a day on time. For small breeds such as Teddy dogs, two small meals a day can be particularly beneficial.
Your dog should be fed room temperature dog food to ensure that it can taste and smell the food normally. If you feed it canned food, it will take about two hours after you take the can out of the refrigerator and open it until the temperature of the food returns to normal temperature. Alternatively, consider using a microwave to heat wet dog food from the can, which will save a lot of time. But feed your dog food neither too hot nor too cold.
If you are feeding dry dog food, it should be stored in a dry and clean environment. Resealable packaging or airtight containers can lock in the flavor of your food so it always tastes great.
Your dog should be allowed to eat in a quiet place. Do not let it be disturbed during the eating process, and do not let it eat where the owner eats. Let your dog eat in a place that is easier to clean, such as on a tile floor or a small mat.
2. Feeding amount
Feed according to the recommended feeding amount on the back of the package, but don’t forget that the recommended feeding amount is for reference only. Every dog is unique, so the most important consideration in feeding is one that keeps your dog lean and healthy. Always have a bowl of clean water ready for your dog.
If you want to feed your dog biscuits or snacks, remember to reduce the amount of staple food accordingly. Also, never feed your puppy more than 15% of their total food.
3. Combing
It is necessary to comb the poodle's hair frequently to keep the hair soft and smooth. When combing, pay attention to combing the facial hair, because after eating, the facial hair will be stuck with food residues. After eating, you must wipe the dog's mouth clean and then comb it with a comb. It’s best to use a comb with fine teeth for combing your dog’s hair. If there are bugs on your dog’s body, you can comb them out while combing them. You should also check your dog's skin frequently. If you find any damage or lesions, seek medical attention from your pet doctor promptly.
4. Take a bath
Poodles must be clean and bathed frequently. If there is a peculiar smell on the body, you can wipe the puppy with a towel dipped in warm water. Puppies after three months of age should take a bath about once a week. Frequent bathing can reduce the number of worms on the dog. Especially behind the ears, you must pay attention to whether there are ear mites.
5. Vaccine
Note that dogs need to be vaccinated between three months and six months. When a dog is vaccinated against an infectious disease for the first timeThree injections are required at that time, followed by one injection of rabies vaccine. In the future, the infectious vaccine will be injected once a year, and the rabies vaccine will be injected once every three years. Dogs also need to be internally dewormed. When getting vaccinated, the dog must be in good health. Poor dog health will reduce the dog's immunity and affect its health. Please note that you can only go out to play one week after the vaccination.
