What are the things to pay attention to when choosing a dog? The dog’s eyes should be bright, flexible and lively, the nose should be moist, and the eyes, ears, and nose should be clean and free of secretions. The color of the eye mucosa, oral mucosa and tongue is red but not bloodshot, and the fur is normal. If you touch its whole body, its ribs should be palpable but not obvious. The abdomen should not be excessively enlarged, the area around the anus and tail should be clean, and the movements should be normal.

When you first come into contact with a puppy, it walks towards you automatically and confidently, with bright eyes and a wagging tail. You can believe that it is a normal and healthy puppy. On the contrary, if it snorts and hides in the dark when you approach it, it is a puppy with a lonely personality. If you pet it gently with your hands and it jumps or barks loudly, this is a nervous puppy born from "inbreeding". It may also have this characteristic when it grows up.

A healthy puppy is lively, energetic, and has normal appetite and excretion. Check carefully and there are the following features:

① The eyes are bright, flexible and lively. Use sounds on the left and right sides of the head to determine whether the puppy's hearing is normal.

② The nose is moist, the eyes, ears, and nose are clean and free of secretions, and there is no odor in the ears.

　③The color of eye mucosa, oral mucosa and tongue is red but without bloodshot eyes.

④ There should be no baldness, dander, ectoparasites (worms) or itching in the fur of the puppy's body, including its limbs and tail.

⑤ Let the puppy stand and touch its whole body. The ribs should be palpable but not obvious; the abdomen should not be excessively distended or distended; there should be no lumps in the center of the lower abdomen and groin (to avoid "hernia") .

⑥ Gently lift the puppy’s tail to make sure the area around the anus and tail are clean.

⑦ By playing with the dog, running and jumping, the puppy can move normally and flexibly without lameness.
