Celebrate the Holidays Safely: Tips for Caring for Your Christmas Puppies and Dogs -


Hello everyone!!!


We hope you all are having a wonderful fall and enjoying the cooler weather. It's a great time to get outdoors walking, hiking, waterfall searching etc... While this is great for you and your pup we still have some precautions to look for while enjoying these fun filled activities.


1) BUNDLE UP THIS WINTER

If you have a puppy, kitten, or short-haired breed, consider purchasing a coat or sweater to cover their back and underside. As far as one haired breeds, let their fur grow out to help keep them warm and consider a coat or sweater for particularly cold outings.

FLEECE IS A STURDY AND WARM OPTION FOR WINTER PET CLOTHING


2) WINTER DIET

In the cold winter, your pet will burn more calories to keep warm. If your pet exercised outdoors a lot, think about increasing their food or treat intake by a little bit. But be careful- too much food can lead to potentially dangerous weight gain. You should be able to feel, but not see, your pet's ribs.

TREATS SHOULD MAKE UP ONLY 5-10% OF YOUR PET'S DIET. SOME HEALTHY SNACKS INCLUDE CARROTS, ZUCCHINI, AND BROCCOLI.


3) PROTECT THOSE PAWS

The cold snow and ice can be a pain in the paw. Look out for snow and encrusted ice that can cause cracked bleeding paws. If you notice any bleeding, call your vet. Petroleum jelly is a safe way to protect those paws- you can also look into dog boots.


4) TROUBLESOME TOXINS

Salt and chemical deicers are commonly used during the winter, but unfortunately these substances are poisonous to pets. Try to avoid contact with deicers when outside with your pet and wipe them down with a wet towel then completely dry them off to remove any possible chemicals. Look for pet- friendly deicers and antifreeze if you need to use them.

ANTIFREEZE TOXICITY CAN COST MORE THAN $2000 TO TREAT


5) BABY, IT'S COLD OUTSIDE

If it's not too cold out for you, your dog can get some aerobic exercise outside that will also keep them warm. Walking in a wooded area is a good way to protect them from the chilly wind gusts. However, if it's too cold for exercise outside, consider some indoor options. Winter is a great time to look into obedience classes and indoor training, like agility and flyball. Other indoor exercise includes tug-o-war, fetch, or a playdate with a furry friend.

ALASKAN MALAMUTES ARE THE LARGEST AND OLDEST OF ARTIC SLED DOGS
