How to pick a Bichon Frise? You should pick a Bichon Frise that is large. The eyes of a healthy Bichon Frise should be clean and bloodless; the ears should be free of odor and redness; the nose should be moist, the mouth free of unusual secretions, and the teeth should be white; and the skin should be light pink in color. Height: Pick a Bichon Frise that is large. In a litter of puppies, generally want to see to pick the largest, animals and plants alike, are well-nourished, sufficient nutrients to grow a large, while the later development will be good, that is, more healthy. So if you can’t decide, the first thing to do is to start with a large Bichon Frise, while the paws are also better. Eyes: The eyes of a healthy Bichon Frise should be clean and bloodless. The eyes of a Bichon Frise should be clear and clean, with bloodshot eyes, white membranes in the eyeballs, large amounts of droppings in the corners of the eyes, and protruding flesh in the corners of the eyes (indicating problems with the tear ducts) are all unhealthy symptoms. The dog owner can place the Bichon Frise in a relatively high place when selecting and then wiggle his hand in front of the dog’s eyes. If the Bichon Frise’s vision is normal, then his sight will follow the wiggling of your hand. Mouth: The Bichon’s mouth is examined mainly in the areas of secretions, teeth, gums, and breath. A healthy Bichon Frise will not have any unusual secretions in its mouth other than saliva, but if frothy secretions are found, it means there is a problem with the Bichon’s health. A healthy Bichon Frise’s teeth should be white, if there is tartar or damage to the teeth it can be considered a health problem, although this is not a major problem, but not good for the dog. Bad breath, like teeth, is not a principle problem, but a dog with bad breath is most likely to have a problem with its diet. Such a Bichon Frise is also not recommended for purchase. Nose: The nose of a Bichon Frise should be moist. When selecting a Bichon Frise, dog owners can use their hands to squeeze some food and wiggle it in front of the dog’s nose. If the puppy chases your hand as you wiggle it, it means that its sense of smell is fine. A healthy Bichon’s nose is moist in a healthy state (except for those who have just woken up), and the color of the snot is clear and clear. Ear: In selecting a healthy Bichon Frise puppy, an important thing is to put the Bichon in a smooth place, and then use your hand to snap your fingers on the side or the back of the dog’s head, if the puppy’s reaction is to actively look in the direction of the sound source to find, it means that its hearing is normal and there is no impairment. The next step is for the dog owner to turn the Bichon Frise’s ears outward and observe the condition inside the ears. If there are odors or sticky attachments, redness, swelling, trauma, bleeding, etc. all prove that there is damage to the inner ear or ear parasites, which are unhealthy; if not, it means that the puppy’s ears are completely healthy. If the skin color is light pink, the skin is healthy. You can focus on the skin around the dog’s mouth, under the neck, behind the ears, under the armpits and at the base of the thighs, because these places are very easy to grow mites. If the skin is lumpy or flaky red, the Bichon Frise’s skin is infected with mites or fungus. This disease is very difficult to treat and can easily recur, so Bichon Frise dogs with such symptoms are recommended not to be picked. Excrement: Bichon Frise’s excrement is also a criterion of the dog’s health or not. If the Bichon Frise has diarrhea, the stool is very thin indicating that there is a problem with the digestive system or that the intestinal flora has been damaged, or worst of all, the micro virus. If you can’t see his excrement then you can lift the Bichon’s tail and see if there is poop stained around the anus, generally only poop sticks to the hair around the anus of a dog with diarrhea. The pace is brisk: a lively and active Bichon Frise is better A Bichon Frise that is lively and active inside the litter and has a brisk pace is better. If the Bichon Frise puppy’s pace is not normal first look at how many months of puppies, if it is three months ago it is possible that because it is too small, the muscles and bones are still immature, and can be observed again to see. But if it is three months after the dog pace any problems, indicating that the bones are injured or have been injured, there are some dogs due to brain damage can also cause sequelae in terms of action, so please be careful when selecting. Foot pads: Bichon Frise’s foot pads are relatively soft and tender. If some puppies have dry, cracked feet, it means malnutrition, while puppy feet that are hard may be a pre-demonstration of distemper.
