Caring about the breath of your dog?Brush their teeth at least once a week to prevent them for bad breath.
Trust me, getting tooth decay is a very serious matter.
It lead to toothache that can affect their meal and even lead to
DEATH.me, myself can't believe too at first. till i've read an article on net.DO NOT brush your dog teeth using human's toothpaste and brush.it may cause harm to them, there are toothpaste and brush that is made for dogs.
Do use that, it's much more safe than using things that aren't made for dogs.
listen to advise that is being given from others, it's good for you.
For more information, don't forget to ask your veterinarian. :)
How to bath your dog in a proper way?same old thing, do not use human shampoo!
the PH might be different,
1)choose the right shampoo for your dog.
according to the colour. If your dog is in white coat, you might use whitening.
if your dog is short-coated you may use another one.
you can also buy anti-fleas to keep your dog from fleas.
2)prepare a sponge or towel to bathe your dog additionally.
shower your dog with lukewarm water, not too hot nor too cold!
3)apply the shampoo all around the dog's coat without affecting the eyes.
rinse gently with water if the shampoo get into your dog's eyes.
make sure you use the right amount of shampoo onto your dog's coat.
too little shampoo might dehydrate/dry up their coat.
4)using the towel/sponge. Make sure it's wet.
Scrub all around the dog's coat and scratch evenly, massage onto your dog's head.
gently, just like body massage. massaging during bathe can reduce the stress of your dog.
5)rinse your dog with lukewarm water. make sure it's totally clean.
apply conditioner if you want, and rinse it again.
6)dry your dog using a dry towel that is big enough for your dog.
if the towel is too wet, change another dry one. make sure your dog doesn't catch cold.
7)dry your dog again using a hair dryer and a grooming brush.
lay your dog down and start to use the hair dryer while grooming your dog.
this will make your dog's coat beautifully and neater. the grooming process may take about 45-1hour. as you need to dry your dog's whole coat.
8)after doing all the grooming, you may want to make your dog smells gooooood.
by adding dog's perfume of some baby powder. and now your dog has a nice fragrance!
What to bring if you're going to the beach with your dog?1)Bottle of water - your dog needs to have plenty of water, make sure it's enough for them to last.
2)Plastic bowl - your dog may need to use it for drinking water in case it's spilled.
3)Doggy treats - you may train your dog there too! let this be enjoyable for both of you.
4)2 Towel - i suggest that you take 2 towels, in case that your dog has symtoms of heatstroke.
wet the towel immediately and place that on your dog's upper body, let it cool down.
change the towel if it isn't wet anymore.
5)Shampoo - in case that your dog is dirty playing around the sand. clean it up when you're there too!
6)Collars/lead - it's a must, play safe rather than sorry.
and that's all that you've to bring, make this the happiest moment ever! :)
