Here and again the long-awaited time of summer holidays came. There is a strong wish at the sea, but how to be with a dog? The speech, of course, does not go about mastiffs or sheep-dogs - here it is harder and harder! And here it is a pity to leave a little fluffy on similarity of a spitz-dog or Yorkshire terrier on someone's care, they can quite be taken. How it is correct to organize it? What needs to be made how to be prepared?
It is possible to leave a dog for the period of the holiday to someone from friends or acquaintances, but it will be a big stress for her. There is even such method of correction of behavior as "overexposure": the animal is given for a while to the unfamiliar place to strangers and the postponed stress forces a dog to be obedient. Therefore you should not subject a pet to such trials and just to take on rest; if it is correct to make everything, then no serious problems will arise.
As it will be prepared
Training of a dog
Long before a poyezka be engaged in education and adaptation of the fluffy to transport and a large number of surrounding people. Make several trips by bus, in the subway, visit (if there is an opportunity) the nearby beach. Pay special attention to how the dog reacts on people around: she should not bark at someone and the more so to rush. In case of need carry out the corresponding educational work or address specialists in problems of behavior of animals – zoopsychologists (now such doctors are in many large clinics).
Surely before a trip consult with the veterinarian, tell in detail where and to what time you go. Attentively listen to all recommendations, have medical examination.
Do all necessary annual vaccination:
- DHHPI – from plague of carnivorous (distemper), hepatitis and the interit;
- R – from rage;
- L – from leptospirosis
If vaccination is carried out for the first time, then it is necessary to visit clinic two times therefore make everything beforehand.
Surely issue the pet passport. In it the photo of a dog has to be pasted, all data (nickname, breed, the owner) are specified, to stand a stamp of the organization. In appropriate section special stickers from all bottles with vaccines have to be pasted, date of vaccination is specified and to stand a personal stamp of the doctor.
The pet passport, in avoidance unforeseen proby, surely take. Rules of transportations on any intercity transport periodically change therefore anyway existence of this document superfluous will not be.
Surely before the trip carry out processing from pincers. In the same Krasnodar Krai, on the coast of the Black Sea, pincers meet from March to October and there is a danger of infection with borreliosis.
Pay attention!
Never cut the fluffy before a trip to the sea! Opinion on what thanks to a hairstyle it will not be hot, deeply mistakenly!

To all other, due to the lack of a sufficient woolen cover the dog will get skin burn on the southern sun roast!
