Reasonable arrangement of diet
Chow Chow (definite introduction) looks like its name, appearance Like a little lion, with a slightly wrinkled face, it looks really cute and adorable. However, the characteristics of this kind of dog are somewhat inconsistent with their appearance, and they are not as easy to get along with people as they appear on the surface. There is even a little neglect sometimes, and we need to understand this.
Food, housing and transportation are the three factors for raising a good Chow Chow. Because food is an item that needs to be used every day, it is important to consider. The eating status of Chow Chows at different stages will also undergo certain changes. Food suitable for Chow Chow puppies:
Food suitable for puppies: Milk cake can be used as food before 4 months old, and puppy food can be used between 5-12 months old. Dog food, then adult dog food. Usually, you can also feed some fruits and vegetables to supplement special nutrients. In order to make the bones strong, you can also supplement the dog with a little calcium, supplementing the calcium products with high natural content, such as super calcium, to promote the development of the bones and teeth of the puppies. Egg yolks are also a good snack, and they are not cheap but they are rich in nutrients. Protein, and contains vitamin A, calcium and minerals that are easy to digest and absorb. Vitamins and minerals: For puppies with poor physical fitness, consider supplementing some vitamins and minerals, such as 21 gold vitamins. Meat: Although beef, pig, chicken, etc. are good foods, when raising puppies, it is advisable to choose parts that do not contain fat, because fat is easy to deteriorate. But feed cooked meat, not raw meat.
It is naturally best to feed on time and at a fixed point, so as to develop a good eating habit. In addition, you should not feed the Chow too much meat, otherwise the Chow will easily have skin problems. The sources of good protein are: eggs, rice and a small spoonful of meat (be sure not to have too much, as too much meat will do more harm than good). If the dog's gastrointestinal condition is not good and is not suitable for eating dog food, then feeding the dog some porridge or rice topped with gravy is a good choice.
Avoid heat stroke in summer
The second is the issue of care. Chow Chow is a type of dog that is more susceptible to skin diseases. Therefore, you must pay attention to blowing the coat thoroughly after taking a bath. The frequency of bathing should not be too high. If it is too dirty, you might as well use a warm towel to help your dog wipe it every day to keep it clean. Some Chow Chows may drool more seriously and have certain wrinkles on their faces, so pay attention to the cleanliness of their faces.
In summer, it should be noted that if the Chow is placed in a hot closed place or under the sun, it is easy to suffer from heat stroke. Chow Chows can hardly tolerate humidity exceeding 80 degrees. Never leave your dog in the car when the weather is hot. The symptoms of heatstroke are constant panting and irritable breathing. If this happens, you should act immediately, put the Chow Chow in a cool place, and use a cold towel to help the dog wipe it until the dog returns to normal. While cooling your Chow, measure his body temperature every few minutes to monitor the cooling process. Then let the Chow stay in a cool place and let it rest.
At the beginning, we pay attention to disease problems, and we pay more attention to it when we are young. Even if it is a common cold, we will not be able to go to the hospital immediately if adverse symptoms occur. Other Chow Chows are prone to trichiasis, which, if any, needs to be solved surgically.
