My dog is golden retriever. I took it home and kept it for a month. I think I can only feed him in the morning and evening every day because I have to go to work, but unlike other dogs, he is not full, so I eat less and eat more.
Your parents are right. Generally, there are only disobedient dogs, and there are few disobedient dogs.
Because Gu Mu is a medium and large dog, it is recommended to add calcium tablets and vitamins to dog food every day.

Feeding two-month-old dogs
(1) Food: For puppies that have just been brought home, it is necessary to know the type, quantity and feeding time of the food given to the puppies by the original owner, and try to keep it the same as the former owner, and then slowly change the eating habits after one week. Otherwise, a series of drastic changes, such as changing eating habits, changing the environment, changing new owners, or long-distance transportation from other places, will cause a strong stress reaction in the puppy, leading to a decline in the puppy's resistance, gastrointestinal dysfunction and easy to cause diseases.
In addition, it should also be considered that the digestive ability of the dog's stomach is weak, and the food should contain less fiber and be soft and easy to digest. Some families give a lot of meat out of doting. 1~2 days later, gastrointestinal dysfunction will occur. Generally, within 3~4 months, it is advisable to soak porridge or dry food in water. Other foods often cause indigestion and diarrhea. Dogs eat milk and have diarrhea easily. The content of protein in dog mother's milk is 3 times that of milk and 7.5 times that of human milk. It is a kind of milk with high protein, high fat and low lactose, while the milk and milk powder used by human beings are low in protein, low in fat and high in lactose, which is different from that in dog milk. There are not enough enzymes in the intestines of dogs to digest lactose (genetic factor). If the milk (or food) fed to puppies contains a lot of high sugar, it will often lead to diarrhea caused by intestinal fermentation. Therefore, 2-month-old puppies should be fed with high-protein food and vegetables (equivalent to the food of 4-5-month-old babies). If you give chicken breast or beef with low fat, add a small amount of vegetables, cut into filaments, add some bread crumbs or rice and mix well. Feed it 3~4 times a day. Add some calcium powder (or bone powder, active calcium, etc.). ) into food, and drop 1~2 drops of vitamins a and d to meet the needs of bone growth and development.
(2) Excretion: Observe whether the urine and urine are normal. The frequency of defecation changes with age. 1 months old several times a day, 2 months old about 3 times a day. The frequency of defecation is related to the type of food. For example, when meat is added with rice, the amount and frequency of stool are less, while when starch food is fed, the number and quantity are more. And pay attention to the color, smell or presence of worms in dog feces. Normal feces are strip-shaped, moderately soft and hard, and usually pale yellow. But it is also affected by food, such as more meat or more liver, which will be black. The frequency of urination also changes with age. 1 month old, about every 2 hours, about 5~6 times a day when 2 months old. Urine is light yellow or clear and transparent, which is good for health. Usually urinate for the first time in the morning, and the color may be slightly thicker. If the urine color is always strong, it may be pathological. You should go to the animal hospital for examination.
(3) Education: Good habits should be educated from 2 months. At this time, name the puppy first, often call her name, let her know that barking is calling her, and establish a conditioned reflex to let it come at once. Another kind of education points to urinating in the "toilet". Generally, puppies 4 months ago don't hold their urine, and they urinate when they have it. You can only urinate when you are 4 months old.
(4) Health: Let the puppies have a regular life. In terms of feeding, it is necessary to regularly quantify and balance nutrition. Dogs should not be picky about food to prevent malnutrition. Attention should be paid to prevent excessive vitamin (especially vitamin A or D) or calcium deficiency. It is not advisable for puppies to eat too much, and it is generally appropriate to eat 70% to 80% full; Don't give spoiled food to prevent diarrhea or poisoning.
Dogs are afraid of cold. Whether in winter or summer, keeping warm is an important job for dogs. If the puppy's abdomen is always cold, it will lead to diarrhea or cold.
Sunbathing and sports. Neither a puppy nor a puppy was suitable to take it for a walk on the road five months ago. Because of the bones of puppies, walking for a long time will lead to the deformation of limbs bones, and it is also easy to get sick outside. You can play and exercise properly indoors or in the courtyard. Sunbathing when the sun is not too hot is good for bone growth.
Physical examination: once a month, check the urine and stool, and expel intestinal parasites if necessary (find an animal hospital with high reputation and good conditions).
Vaccination: 2 months after birth, the antibodies brought from the mother have almost been eliminated, and various viral diseases may occur. Therefore, the most important thing is to vaccinate against canine distemper, canine parvovirus and infectious hepatitis. Resistance (antibody) is produced about 2 weeks after vaccination. In about 2 months, if the vaccine cannot be vaccinated, and the epidemic situation is prevalent or may be infected, you can directly inject anti-virus serum to directly enhance the body's resistance, and then vaccinate after 2 weeks.
Feeding a four-month-old dog
(1) Food: 4~8 months is a very important growing period for puppies, and it is necessary to meet the various nutritional needs of dogs. 4-month-old dogs can be fed special dry dog food and rice. Cooked meat, fish, vegetables and broth can be mixed with special foods, or with rice and pasta. Add some calcium powder and vitamin A and D solutions to food, and add a small amount of salt and sugar, but remember not to overdo it.
Food intake varies with dog breeds and body size. If there are several dogs, it is impossible to give the same number. Generally, the amount of food similar to the size of the puppy's head is fed twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. How much each dog can eat must be mastered and controlled by the owner.
2) Excretion: Generally, there are two stools in the morning and evening, and the amount is also large.
(3) Education: After the puppy was born for 4 months, the deciduous teeth began to fall off and the permanent teeth began to grow, which led to itchy roots and disorderly biting. This bad behavior should be stopped.
(4) Health: physical examination, monthly health examination and urine test. Preventive injection: After the first two injections, strengthen immunization again if necessary, and repeat the injection (according to the requirements of vaccine use). It should be particularly emphasized that due to weight gain, the nutritional requirements increase, especially when calcium can not meet the needs, dogs will suffer from rickets, which can deform the long bones of limbs or swell the joints, thus forming "O" or "X" legs. For large dogs of medium build or above, it is more important to observe whether there are morphological changes in the front and rear limbs. Adjust the balance of calcium and phosphorus in time, often irradiate ultraviolet rays (bask in the sun) and supplement the deficiency of vitamins A and DE. Dogs should not walk for long. Generally, dogs should not go on the road within 4 months to prevent limb deformation.
(5) Beauty and ear shaping: Dogs that need shearing, such as poodles, should be trimmed and sheared from the age of 4 months (choose a beauty shop with good conditions and high reputation) to prevent cross-infection and spread diseases. For hard-haired dogs, you can pull out a little fur every day in your own home to promote their growth. A 4-month-old puppy can take a bath twice a month, but it is necessary to prevent colds. In ear plastic surgery, plastic plates can be attached to the ears for corrective treatment.
Feeding five-month-old dogs
1) food: on the basis of 4-month-old food, we should not only increase the amount of food, but also increase the amount of rice, flour, beans and so on. , plus eggs and so on. Can improve the digestibility of plant protein. Large dogs above medium build began to feed meat and chicken heads cooked with quick fire. In addition, adding some plants to food is good for dog's skin and fur.
(2) Excretion: generally twice a day in the morning and evening.
(3) Education: In order to prevent her from chewing at will, the puppy occasionally urinates and defecates everywhere, which may be due to some factors that lead to unsatisfied mental requirements, such as the owner often being lonely or severely scolded, mentally being hit or the place where he urinates and defecates is not clean, which may lead to the "angry" behavior of the dog. We should not only severely reprimand the dog, but also see whether the dog's requirements can be met and improved, so as to correct this bad habit.
(4) Health: health check, monthly urine check. 5-month-old dogs should not take her for a walk on the road to prevent infection. Dogs can play and exercise freely with rubber balls or artificial bones on the balcony or yard. Diseases susceptible to infection include colds, gastroenteritis and canine distemper.
After four and a half months, the dog's disease resistance gradually increased and the disease decreased. Take a bath 2~3 times a month, and pay attention to prevent colds. Feeding of dogs aged 6~7 months
(1) Food: 6 months old is the period when dogs eat the most according to their weight. It is the stage of increasing body length and height. The food provided should be rich and comprehensive, which plays a decisive role in the future health of dogs. Reference to the use of 4~5 months old food.
(2) Walking: Feed the medium-sized and above dogs. When they are 6 months old, put a collar on the dog and tie a rope to go for a walk outdoors. At first, many dogs were too timid to walk. Take her out to find a quiet place for a while, and then let her walk back. After several times, she got used to it and was willing to go out for a walk.
It is advisable to take a walk in the morning and evening. Generally, each walk time is 10 minute for small dogs, 20-30 minutes for medium dogs and 1 hour for large dogs.
After getting into the habit of walking, dogs will take walking as a pleasure and become a necessary part of life. Once the owner is a little lazy and doesn't take her out for a walk, it may cause physical dysfunction. For example, some dogs will have adverse reactions such as noisy appetite, constipation or inability to urinate. Therefore, it is the owner's responsibility to take the dog for a walk.
(3) Education: 6 months old is the peak period of puppy biting (the puppy's deciduous teeth fall off and grow permanent teeth). The habit of biting will be eased in the future.
The 6-month-old male dog is in heat. For humans, especially women, they often scramble to hold hands or feet, bend their backs and swing back and forth, and sometimes their penises secrete mucus. When you see this kind of action, you should stop it and direct your attention to other places. At this time, you can't touch the penis with your hands, otherwise you may ejaculate, which will lead to the habit of masturbation.
4) Health: Physical examination once a month.
When you go out for a walk, you should prevent food poisoning caused by eating indiscriminately. In addition, there are many opportunities to walk and contact with external pathogens. Care should be taken to prevent infection by parasites, bacteria and viruses. Sometimes it is easy to fight with other dogs and get bitten or stabbed by foreign objects. Six months old is prone to colds, gastroenteritis, canine distemper, infectious hepatitis, parasitic diseases and rickets. The number of baths can be increased, 1 time in summer, 2-0 times per month in spring and autumn, and 1 time per month in winter. The feeding and health management of 7-month-old dogs are basically the same as those of 6-month-old dogs. Pay special attention to going out for a walk. As the dog grows older, its strength is also increasing. Large dogs of especially medium build and above often pull people to run when walking, which should be corrected.
Feeding 8-month-old dogs
(1) food: 8-month-old dogs are close to adult dogs, but their internal organs are still growing and developing, so they should continue to be given nutritious food.
(2) Estrus: After the 8-month-old dog sister reaches sexual maturity, the vulva swells and the vagina bleeds. After ten days, the amount of bleeding gradually decreased. At this time, the dog sister accepted the mating and pregnancy of the dog brother. Generally, the first estrus should not make the bitch pregnant.
(3) Education: During this period, she must be educated to know what to do and what not to do.
★★★★★★ Dog care schedule
Vaccine: once a year, three times in the first year, and once a year thereafter; Rabies occurs once a year.
Insect repellent: once every three months, even if there are no signs of insects, you usually have to take small pills for a few days.
Bathing: once every ten days at most.
Brush your teeth: once a week, and twice a week for people with short noses and breathing problems.
Ear washing: ear drops are available in general pet hospitals once a month, whichever is not smelly. There are many drops with big ears.
Clean anal gland secretion: once a month. If you don't squeeze for a long time, you will get anal inflammation. Don't do it before and after meals 1 hour, and don't do it when guests are coming at home.
Eat: Dogs can eat three or four times a day. As adults, those who do a lot of exercise, such as Damamachi, should eat less and eat more. I think twice a day is more appropriate.
★★★★★★ Never mind the puppy.
When a newly sold puppy comes to a new environment, there must be a process of adapting to the environment, which depends on the care of its owner.
1) When the puppy comes home, don't put it too high to avoid breaking it;
2) Be gentle. At this time, you can't be interested in it, and you can't yell at the puppy to scare it. Don't yell at the puppy suddenly, lest the puppy be frightened;
3) When cuddling the puppy, one hand must be placed on the puppy's chest, and the other hand must be placed under the puppy's hip, which is safe.
4) Don't overwork your new puppy. If it wants to sleep, it can't be frightened or disturbed.
5) The owner should first develop the habit of feeding regularly, and don't give it snacks at ordinary times, so as not to affect gastrointestinal indigestion or cause diarrhea.
6) Don't cuddle or feed the dog when you are happy, and ignore it when you are unhappy. Don't cheat or play tricks on puppies, build trust with them.
7) The pet basket must be kept clean, and dry old clothes should be put under it. The pet basket should be placed in a warm and quiet corner to prevent dogs from catching cold and contracting pneumonia. Always keep the basket clean and hygienic. Cover the puppy with an old towel or blanket when sleeping.
Never bathe a puppy that has not been vaccinated! Because the puppy is not adapted to the new environment and has not been vaccinated, taking a bath as soon as he gets home can easily lead to diseases such as colds.
Self-diagnosis of dog vomiting
Dogs are hungry and will vomit if they eat too much! Observe the color and shape of vomit when vomiting, so that doctors can know more clearly what the dog is sick of when seeing a doctor.
1. If saliva is spit out, it is mostly esophageal problems, such as esophageal foreign bodies (food stuck in the esophagus, usually bones), or a congenital disease of the heart-persistent right arterial arch, which can be known by doctors!
If what you spit out is food, you eat it back immediately, then you will be fine. Such vomiting belongs to physiological vomiting, that is, vomiting similar to rumination. Such vomiting does not need to see a doctor.
3. If the vomit is transparent or white and thin, it is gastric juice, that is, gastric acid secreted by the stomach. Acute gastritis is the most common case of this kind of vomiting, but if the vomiting is normal, you don't need to see a doctor first, just fast 12 hours. If vomiting persists, you still need to see a doctor, because it may be a foreign body obstruction in the gastrointestinal tract or a liver problem, a kidney problem or pancreatitis.
4. If the color of vomit is yellow-green, yellow-green, it means that bile has been spit out. Usually vomiting of this color depends on a doctor! Because this represents a lot of situations, in addition to the liver, kidney, pancreas and other problems mentioned above, there are gastrointestinal ulcers!
Another situation is that the vomit is yellow, yellow, green and green, but it mostly happens before eating, and it is normal all day after the dog vomits. This is bile vomiting syndrome. If the color of vomit is brown, not the color of feed or food, but the color of gastric juice is brown, it means that there is bleeding in the stomach, the most common ones are gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer!
If it is bright red, don't hesitate, this is acute bleeding, please send it to the doctor quickly!
Generally speaking, although dogs often behave as if nothing has happened after vomiting, it is better to take them to the hospital besides physical vomiting (rumination). If it's mild, it's fine to take medicine, but if you don't take it to the hospital and look fine, it may turn from simple inflammation to serious ulcer or bleeding, and it will be your beloved dog who will feel uncomfortable!
Dogs had better not eat bones, especially the sharp bones of chickens and ducks. Because dogs swallow these bones with sharp corners or edges, it is easy to cause gastric mucosal damage and can develop into acute gastric ulcer. The sick dog suddenly has acute symptoms such as vomiting, anorexia and abdominal pain, and delayed treatment will develop into chronic gastric ulcer.
Hehe, I wish your dog a healthy growth. I also hope to adopt, hehe. I'll eat it myself.
