Always, have your dog spayed or neutered. Statistics show that doing this can reduce your dog's cancer risk, which can result in a longer life span. Also, dogs that are fixed lose their desire to stray from the home, lessening the chance of them getting lost or hurt.
When you take your dog on vacation with you, get a snapshot of them for your phone. This way, should he get lost, you have a picture you can show others. You can also use the picture to hand our "lost" flyers.
You should never give table scraps to your dog. This causes regular begging and will cause him to dislike his food. Your dog may develop digestive problems and become fat if you feed it table scraps. Train your dog to sit far away from your dining room so that you and your family won't be tempted to feed it table scraps.
Clip your dog's nails. Once they get to a length where they are curling under, this is likely to cause your dog some pain. Purchasing some nail clippers at your local pet store is a good idea. If you'd prefer, you can have the groomers trim your pup's nails.
If you are going to get a dog from the shelter, make a appointment with the vet. You need to find out if they picked anything up at the shelter. Have your dog checked over and given vaccinations as soon as possible.
When selecting a brand of dog food for your pet, read the labels carefully and avoid the cheapest brands. It will benefit your dog greatly if he is fed food that is nutritious and high in quality. While this could mean paying more for higher-end brands, your dog's proper health will be guaranteed through eating healthfully.
If your dog seems sad and lonely, consider investing in a friend for him. Dogs love to be social and hate to be alone. Get one that is similar in energy level and temperament and your dog will be in heaven.
It is not uncommon for dogs to get cuts on their paws from stepping on pieces of glass and debris. Small cuts can be treated by washing, flushing with hydrogen peroxide and bandaging. Go to a vet if it seems like the cut is very deep.
If your dog has an accident indoors, be certain you get rid of any sign of it. Use some professional strength cleaners and a good odor remover that works. If the smell from your pet's mess stays there, it might motivate your dog to continue defecating there.
