Dogs for everybody

                                   


Hi!
Today we are going to speak about dogs. 
They are very faithful, some people say they are human's best friend.
There are lots of races and types of dogs.


FEEDING
  
If we want the dog last long, and that make him stay healthy, you should look forward of the food you give him.
You must give him the food at the same hour.
They always need to have some fresh water.

TIMES YOU MUST FEED THEM:



The first 8 weeks
Puppies should not be separated from their mother before they are 8 weeks old. Puppies who leave their mothers sooner have a rougher time adjusting and a higher incidence of illnesses. I do not know if it is due to weakened immunity or mourning the premature loss of its family. Their mother's milk provides them with the nutrition and antibodies they need to become healthy dogs. At three to four weeks, puppies should begin eating some solid food. You can try mixing three parts food with one part water or puppy replacement milk . This will make the food easier for the puppy to digest. If your puppy begins eating a little solid food before they leave their mother they will have an easier time adjusting when you bring them home. One way to tell if a puppy is ready to come home with you is if it prefers human company over their mom or siblings.
6 to 8 weeks
Feed your puppy 3-4 times a day. Puppies have different nutritional needs than adult dogs. Choose a puppy food that provides the appropriate balance of nutrients your puppy needs. Be sure they are getting the right amount of protein and calcium, and the proper amount of calories. Check the label to determine if you are feeding your puppy a balanced diet. A specified meat should be the first ingredient on the label.
After 8 weeks
Feed your puppy twice a day.
3 to 6 months
Your puppy will be teething. He may become a finicky eater or lose his appetite. Keep feeding him nutritious food twice a day. If he has an upset stomach for more than one or two days, take him to the veterinarian.
6 months to 1 year
Your puppy may look all grown up but he is still a puppy. He should still be fed a high quality food for the added nutrition. Note, in some very high quality foods the company does not make a separate food for puppies because the food is of such a high quality that it provides for both puppy and adult equally. For example a real human grade chicken is what it is for all ages. If you are feeding a puppy food ask your veterinarian when you should switch to adult food. Make sure the adult food you switch to is still a balanced high quality diet with the first ingredient being a specified meat and that it is not a by-product.
8 to 9 months
Feeding should be twice a day.
1 years
In most breeds feeding should be twice a day.



They must have a walk everyday and make some exercice.


And that's all, THANKS FOR READING US, WE'LL BE BACK SOON
