That the beautiful proud dog grew from a small fluffy lump, a lot of time will be required. Care for a spitz-dog – a task for patient dog breeders. The puppy needs to be combed daily, once a half-month to cut claws, to watch that it was not wounded. The main thing is not to allow children to squeeze this creation. Perhaps, only in questions of feeding more and more or less clearly.
Instruction
1. Take an interest at the manufacturer what food the puppy received before you got it. Often together with the card of inoculations the manufacturers give the scheme of feeding of a puppy.
2. You transfer it to other food gradually. Remember that dry feeds are not a basis of a diet. Combine them with natural products.
3. If the puppy is one and a half-two months old, feed him 4-5 times a day. Then the number of feedings will be reduced, and the volume of portions to increase. So, in three-four months you feed a puppy 4 times a day, in five-seven – 3 times. Since seven months he can be transferred to the mode of feeding of an adult dog – 2 times a day. The spitz-dog can go to walk only if after a meal there passed not less than two hours.
4. Do not overfeed a spitz-dog puppy that then in your apartment "the fluffy keg" was not got. At puppies as well as at children, the metabolism is very unstable, and only the day regimen and the balanced feeding will help you to avoid mistakes. Even the adult spitz-dog should not give many fat products.
5. Spitz-dogs are unpretentious in food, but puppies should be fed only with soft food. You cook meat, fish (without bones), vegetables, porridges, eggs. With meat and puppies, and adult individuals are fed at the rate of 20-30 g a day on 1 kg of weight. The total amount of a daily diet of a puppy – 100-150 ml. Vitamins and minerals are necessary for puppies, but it is possible to give them only after consultation with the veterinarian or the manufacturer.
6. Surely you feed the baby with dairy products (cottage cheese, fermented baked milk, sour cream, cheese), but only room temperature and small portions. Add to porridges vegetable, but not butter, or you cook them on bone or liquid meat broth. The bone can be given only from 4-5 months when at dogs the milk teeth change on constants. Neither the puppy, nor an adult spitz-dog can give tubular chicken bones, fragments beef or pork.
7. Do not offer the favourite of food from your table. No smoked products, sweets should be in a diet of the kid. Peas, haricot and cabbage – too under a ban as they can cause an abdominal distension and spasms of a stomach. As a last resort, put to a puppy in a pan a sauerkraut spoon, but without spices.
8. Spread a portion in the ware which is specially intended for little dogs – a bowl with low boards. The puppy should not try to keep step with food not to spoil digestion and a bearing. Provide him free access to water, pour it in a separate bowl.
