redbone coonhound rearing
The age of the newly bought puppies is basically about 2-3 months. At this time, the dog has just begun to understand the world and needs careful teaching and care from the owner.
Dogs in this period need to pay attention. Since they have just been weaned, they need an adaptation process to the new food, so the dog food needs to be soaked in warm water before feeding. Different periods of dogs have dog food for this stage, and owners need to pay attention to choosing and purchasing.
The puppy‘s stomach is still developing, it is recommended to feed less and more, preferably about four times a day. You can gradually switch to dry dog food when you are older.
Note: Do not feed human food at this stage, it will not only irritate the dog’s fragile stomach, but some small chicken bones and fish bones may even hurt the dog!
After 3 months, the dog’s development is basically formed, and the personality begins to show. The owners can start training them to start defecation at a certain point, and have a complete understanding of the environment.
At the same time, dogs need to be taken to the veterinary hospital for deworming and vaccination, because this stage is also a period when puppies are easily infected. Only dogs who have received rabies vaccine can take a bath and take them out of the house with confidence!
Note: The dog is still very fragile at this time, remember to pay attention to the status of the dog at all times!
