Nowadays, more and more families are raising pet dogs. There are also more and more dog transfers, red envelope adoptions, free adoptions, etc. There are many reasons for this, including those who raise dogs on impulse. After raising dogs for a period of time, they find that they cannot continue to raise them due to various reasons in the family. Therefore, the following content will introduce an analysis of the guidelines for raising dogs for five different types of families. I hope it can help some pet friends!

【Families with children】

Families with children at home are very suitable for raising dogs because there are often people at home. Please treat the dog as a member of the family and love it well. And for young children, treating animals carefully is also a great opportunity to teach them to respect life and cultivate a gentle heart. However, it is not entirely impossible for dogs to bite people because they are constantly being pestered and touched by children. Therefore, before a good interactive relationship is established between children and dogs, adults must always teach children in advance the rules they should abide by, such as not to feed the dogs random food, not to disturb the dogs when they are resting in the kennel, etc.

【Families with elderly persons】

The cute and pure healing eyes of the Shiba Inu, walking or playing games with the energetic Shiba Inu, if you can have a Shiba Inu by your side in your old age, it will make your life healthier. In addition, if you have retired from work and can stay at home often, you will surely be able to establish a great interactive relationship with your dog. However, although the Shiba Inu is a small dog, it still has a certain size. If they are not well educated during their growth, they may become too strong and difficult to control when they grow up. Therefore, when the Shiba Inu is a puppy, it must be given specific behavioral education, and it must be taught rules such as not to bite, not to attack, and not to rush when walking.

【Dual-income families & single-person families】

When leaving your dog alone at home for a long time, remember to interact with your dog more in the morning and evening. If you plan to raise a puppy from a young age, it is best to take the dog home during a long vacation, and first conduct basic behavioral education on the dog such as toilet training, cage training, and practicing being alone at home. In addition, although it costs some money, recently there are more and more "dog care classes" that can leave dogs and assist with behavioral training and socialization education. Many owners will leave their dogs during the day. Store it there.

【Family living in an apartment】

The four things you need to pay special attention to when keeping a dog in an apartment are footsteps, barking, dog smell and hair loss. When your dog is a puppy, you need to train it not to bark. If the house is paved withWhen it comes to wooden floors, you can lay down additional carpets for sound insulation, and never comb your dog on the balcony. In addition, when discarding garbage such as diaper pads, follow the garbage classification regulations and do not cause trouble to neighbors.

【When raising several dogs at the same time】

When raising two or more dogs at the same time, whether they can get along well with each other mainly depends on whether their personalities are compatible. However, generally speaking, if there are differences in gender, age or physique between dogs, it will be easier to tell them apart. We have a relatively peaceful relationship with each other. When two dogs meet for the first time, they can face each other across the cage to slowly let the dogs get used to each other. In addition, when feeding or taking your dog for a walk, give priority to the dog you raise first. The most important thing is that the owner must interact with the dogs face to face one by one and establish a trusting relationship with each dog.
