She shares her top tips for a happy dog.
Here’s what you should be doing throughout the year to keep your dog in good shape.
Keep in mind no one knows your dog like you do - so it’s important to keep an eye on them for signs of unusual behaviour and for any niggles go straight to your vet.
DOG MOUTH
You can buy a special toothbrush and toothpaste from your vet and it’s a great idea to start when they are puppies so they get used to it. Aim to do this once a week.
Problem symptoms to look out for include: salivating or pawing at the mouth or signs of pain while chewing as well as bad breath.
DOG EYES
It’s a good idea to clean around your dog’s eyes regularly too – how often will depend on breed. But for matted or sticky eyes or a foreign body – a trip to the vet is essential.
DOG EARS
Regularly make sure nothing is lodged down there or that they are dirty.
Again, this is one to start early, while they are young – and your vet will love you as it will desensitize them.
Symptoms include: shaking the head, or scratching, or a head tilt.
How to move an injured dog.
- move the dog away from any immediate danger
- make a temporary stretcher from a flat board, car parcel shelf, a towel, blanket or coat
- Get a second person to help you get the dog on to the stretcher while supporting the dog, avoiding bending its spine. Take care to be as gentle as possible
