A dog is just like us, he needs a lot of care and a lot of attention, because if he is not healthy, he will suffer a lot and this is not so correct. When you take the decision to have a dog, you must think that this is a big responsibility. You must feed him every day, you must go outside with him at least 2 times on day, you must spend a lot of money with his health, go to the vet, brush his fur, and you must do this daily, no when you remember or when you have time.
If you do everything that I have mentioned up, then you will have a loyal friend and a healthy dog. How you can see if your dog is healthy? His eyes must be clear, when he barks, the bark must be also clear, his fur must look very shinny, his skin must be elastic and his nose wet. He must play, he must have a lot of energy, and he must be very active. Sometimes, between the masters and the dogs the communication is so important, is so necessary. If your dog cries, you must see what he wants and if you consider that he has a health problem, go as soon as you can with him to the vet, because he can have a serious problem. His mouth must be pink, his respiration in a minute must be 20-30 inspirations and expirations, regulate, and the mouth open(not every time).When the temperature is very high, his mouth must be opened and his tongue outside his mouth.
Normally, the temperature of his body is 38-39 grades, and the heart moves are 110-120 when he is a puppy, 90-100 when is not young, but not old, too, and 70-80 when he is old. The heart moves to the dogs are not constant, so if you notice this, do not scare yourself, it is something normal. If you notice something like:
-the dog refuse to eat 2 days
-it is normal that if he eats a little bit, to vomit. However, if he vomits several times, he could have gastritis or he could have been eating something toxic
-if his excrements are soft, he could have some parasites
-if his excrements are strong and hard several times, you must do him clysters
-if you notice something strange to his eyes, the change of the eyes color
-if you notice a strange smell to his eyes
You must go very fast to a vet, and when I say “fast” I do not mean after some days. You must think that if he has something, it is better for him not to suffer because of you, because you do not have the necessary time to take care of him. If you are sick, you can go alone to the doctor, but he cannot, he depends on you.
Therefore do not hesitate and when you notice that your dog is not happy, it may be a sign that he is not healthy too.
