What should I do if I find a puppy on the side of the road? If you want it to grow up healthy, these four things are indispensable

Often some lucky people will pick up a puppy or litter, possibly an abandoned dog. If a novice who has never raised a dog picks it up and plans to raise it, he will definitely think about what to do. So today I will share with you, when you pick up a puppy and want it to grow up healthy, the following things are indispensable~

First, keep warm

Puppies' body resistance and immunity are very weak, and they cannot maintain their own body temperature well, and are prone to colds or other diseases due to low temperature. So the first thing to take care of a puppy is to keep warm.

Items such as underfloor heating, heating, electric blankets, and hot water bottles can be used to help keep warm. Be careful not to overheat to avoid burns.

Second, take it for a physical examination

If the pet hospital is still open when the puppy is picked up, it is recommended to take it to the hospital to check its condition first. Take a look at its approximate age and take care of it later.

Another reason is that the puppy picked up outside may have problems such as fleas or parasites. You can take it to the hospital to remove the fleas first, and then deworm it when it is older.

Third, eat

If the puppy is not weaned, you can choose goat milk powder to feed it. Do not use hot water that has just been boiled when brewing goat milk powder, because it will destroy the nutrients of goat milk, and drinking it directly will burn it.

If you have been weaned, you can feed the dog food. It is best to choose nutrient-rich puppy food, and choose low-salt and low-oil food. Because the puppy's body is developing, it needs more nutrients. Here we recommend natural dog food that is not greasy, low-salt formula, meets a variety of nutrients that dogs need for growth, and is easy to absorb and digest.

Fourth, prepare its necessities

When you bring it home, you need to prepare its necessities: kennel, dog cage, tableware, dog comb, dog toilet (you can also make your own), dog food, probiotics, deworming medicine, etc.

The reason why probiotics are prepared is because the dog's stomach is not very good, and it is easy to cause vomiting, diarrhea and other problems due to poor digestion. Probiotics can regulate its stomach and enhance immunity.

Notice:

The puppy that has just been brought home may be a little dirty, but it is not recommended to bathe it immediately, you can wipe it with a warm damp towel or use dry powder. Wait until it is familiar with the environment and in good health before giving it a bath.

Before deworming, it is not recommended to take it out to places with many people and dogs. It is not good for puppies and will aggravate its fear. After it is dewormed, be sure to bring a dog leash when you take it out. No matter how small it is, always have a leash ready.

Conclusion: Picking up the puppy is your fate with it, please be kind
