As the weather begins to change in the fall, so do pets during this special season, and owners can’t afford to miss out. Like summer, autumn is a time when canines have a high metabolism. In order to resist the next cold winter, they have a big appetite and reserve fat, so it is important to pay attention to the diet given at this time. Autumn is the season when dogs change their coats, so they shed more hair. Owners should pay attention to their surroundings, and autumn is the season when dogs go into heat, so owners must be on high alert. Vaccination Autumn is the season of bacteria flooding, the peak of infectious diseases, many diseases are easily spread to people through the air. Although pet dogs are vaccinated once a year, because their antigens and immune system are declining and there is an increase in outdoor activities, it is easy to get infected, so it is recommended to supplement the vaccines for dogs to minimize the risk disease factor. Outdoor activities After the hot summer, into the cool autumn, dogs in this season seems particularly active, often looking forward to going out for air, some dogs will behave manically, and even destroy things at home, so the owner should pay attention to take the dog out for a break. But the amount of activity can not be too large, although the love of movement is the nature of the dog, but as a pet dog, the amount of activity in ordinary life is relatively small, if the sudden surge in exercise, the dog body simply can not adapt. Suggestion: use a gradual approach to strengthen the dog’s activities. It is best to gradually increase from 10-15 minutes. At this time, the changes in nature in autumn also begin to shift, and it is best to allow your dog to do nature’s activities, which will be of great benefit to you or your dog’s psyche. The same as in spring, autumn is the rutting season for dogs and cats. Cats like to bark during this season, and dogs also seem to be unusually excited, especially male dogs, which change their usual image of good behavior and change their temperament, urinating and defecating, chewing furniture and fighting with other dogs. Therefore, many owners choose to spay and neuter their pets during this season, firstly because of its seasonal superiority and quicker recovery, and also to avoid the dilemma of having their pets in heat the following spring. Dietary issues Autumn belongs to the dog’s hair changing season, plus the autumn weather is originally dry, so it will cause dry skin or some skin diseases, then the newly grown hair will lose its original luster, it is recommended to give the dog a fatty acid supplement to improve the skin effect during this period. But before the end of winter, or you will have to struggle to lose weight next year. Pay attention to the home environment When the weather turns cool, dog owners may turn on the indoor air conditioning after nightfall or close the doors and windows tightly, but this will reduce the air circulation. In this case, the dog’s skin is dry, the coat is dull and lusterless, and there is a risk of ringworm. In addition, if the dog originally suffers from respiratory organ diseases (such as ulcerative laryngitis, bronchitis, asthma, etc. or shorthair), it is more likely to deteriorate in the prolonged dry air. Suggestion: clean the filter of the air conditioner at home, has been ready to use, because the air conditioner filter after a humid summer, there are already many bacteria (mold) robe inside, and these germs will be spread in the dog’s living environment with the operation of your air conditioner. I hope that all the pooper scoopers can accompany the dogs safe and happy through this autumn ~
