Things to note when raising a dog in winter

1. When raising a dog in the family in winter, it is best to give the dog its own separate bed with a thick mat on it, and the bed should be changed and dried frequently to keep it dry. When the weather is sunny and warm, let your dog bask in the sun more, exercise more, strengthen his physique, and improve his disease resistance.
2. Due to the cold weather in winter, some dogs are reluctant to defecate outside the house. If the dog is allowed to defecate in the kennel, the humidity in the kennel will increase. Dogs sleeping in a damp kennel are prone to skin diseases. It can also cause a large amount of body heat to be lost. Therefore, the humidity in the kennel should be reduced as much as possible, the dog should be taken to defecate outside the house regularly, and the kennel should be cleaned frequently to keep the kennel warm, comfortable, clean and dry.
3. Dogs consume a lot of calories when the temperature is low in winter. If energy feed is fed according to normal standards, it will not be able to meet the energy needed for the growth and development of dogs. Therefore, the feed for dogs in winter should not only satisfy protein, but also pay attention to energy supplement. Feeds with higher energy content such as corn and rice can be used, and animal and vegetable oils can be added if necessary. For example, add a bowl of broth or bone soup to the dog every night. In addition, the dog's demand for vitamins in winter is also higher than in other seasons, so the supply of vitamins must be sufficient.
