Dog eye care
Help your dog by regularly grooming his eyes. This mainly comes down to cleaning the corners of his eyes with a sterile cloth and lukewarm water. If you notice that his eyes are cloudy, it may be a symptom of illness. In that case, make an appointment with the veterinarian.
Keep the ears dry and fresh!
Dog ears are best taken care of with a special cleaner. This keeps them hygienic and combats excess earwax. It is also important to dry the auricles when the ears are wet. If your dog often shakes his head, it is advisable to visit the veterinarian.
Coat care
Comb your dog's coat regularly with a special dog brush. A useful tool for this is also a dog lotion against tangles. Before washing, always use a special dog shampoo to protect your pet's skin. The typical "dog smell" in the house is counteracted with dog perfume.
Nail check
Dogs automatically wear down their nails by walking on rough surfaces, such as the street. Still, it is necessary to trim the nails from time to time. This is especially true for the thumb nail that never touches the ground. With a pair of nail clippers for dogs, you take care of the nails safely.
Protecting dogs from parasites
Protecting against parasites is an integral part of caring for your dog. These invade his body, which can cause health problems. They also settle on his skin and cause itching and other problems. Therefore, protect your dog periodically with an anti flea and tick product. In addition, give him a deworming cure 4 times a year.
Dog dental care
Proper dental care helps keep your dog's teeth strong longer. Besides giving dry food, chew snacks and toys, it is best to even brush your dog's teeth. However, do this with a special toothbrush and toothpaste for dogs.
Quality food
With good dog food, make sure you get the right fuel. But how do you determine what kind of dog food? First, check whether your dog needs dry food, wet food or fresh meat.
- Dry food (or kibble): contains very little moisture and therefore has a long shelf life. It is best to use dry food within two months of opening the package. The quality of dry food is not always based on price, but on the proportion of animal protein in the food. Lower quality dog food contains more grains and vegetable proteins. These can cause skin or digestive problems in some dogs. Dry food, by the way, is always complete food and therefore does not necessarily need to be combined with other dog food.
- Wet food (often in a can or bag): consists of 70% to 90% water. Many dogs like wet food because of its strong smell. With a diet consisting of both dry food, and wet food, your dog is completely nourished. To prevent dental problems, dogs need to chew kibble, so feeding only wet food is not recommended.
- Fresh meat: fresh meat for dogs uses meat that is also suitable for human consumption. This indicates the high quality of the meat. Be sure that with this method of feeding, your dog gets all the nutrients it needs and does not have a problem with malnutrition.
Most types of dog food are categorized by the life stage, size and breed of the dog. The size and composition of the kibble are adapted to the size of the dog and its breed. A Labrador has a different diet than a small ShiZu. Furthermore, special dietary needs may play a role in the choice of dog food.
In addition, purchase a sturdy feeding and drinking bowl. These should be easy to clean and the right height for your dog.
Exercise
Make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise. In addition to at least four rounds of walking per day, it is a good idea to choose other forms of exercise. With sports and games, your dog trains different muscle groups and relaxes. With different dog toys, you also provide distractions indoors. Dog toys come in all shapes and sizes. Consider your dog's biting and scratching behavior when purchasing!
Dog First Aid
Playing rough with a companion or a crazy jump - accidents happen to dogs in no time! Basic wound care supplies are therefore indispensable for every dog owner. With these you can treat small wounds yourself.
Quality time with your dog
Loving attention should not be missing when taking care of a dog. This strengthens your bond and brings peace into your dog's life. With a super comfortable maintenance-free dog cushion, you and your four-legged friend will be totally "zen". For puppies or dogs that are easily stimulated, a crate can provide more rest.
Hygiene in the home
Clean up accidents in the house immediately and clean the affected spot thoroughly. This prevents pathogens from being left behind and your dog from seeing this as his regular poop or pee spot. For stubborn urine stains in fabric or carpet, use a cleaner.
