Recently, many pet friends have asked in the group where they can buy Teddy poodles and how they can tell whether they are sick dogs, week dogs or healthy dogs. In response to these questions, the editor has summarized the precautions for choosing a big Teddy.

First of all, health is the most important

Before choosing a dog’s appearance and coat color, you must first ensure the dog’s health to minimize the possibility of buying a sick dog.

1. Try to choose a Teddy dog ​​that is older in months: Needless to say, of course, the older the dog, the lower the risk. For dogs, the older the dog is, the stronger the immune function of the body will be. , the ability to resist diseases will be stronger. It is recommended to choose puppies that are over 3 months old, and the immune process must be completed over 3 months ago.

2. Ask the seller about the vaccination status: If you are sure that the dog is fine, then you need to ask the seller whether the vaccination has been completed. If it has not been completed, do not be lazy and be sure to vaccinate the dog at a reasonable time.

3. Get tested when buying a dog: Parvocanine distemper has an incubation period, usually 7-10 days. If your dog has been infected with the virus, it may not have any symptoms when you first bought it. It may break out in a few days.

Therefore, it is best to do a parvovirus and canine distemper test after buying a dog. Generally, pet hospitals can do this, or you can buy test paper online and do it yourself, which is very convenient. If you are worried, bring your own test paper to test before buying a dog.

4. Look at the nose: A healthy nose should be cool and moist, but it is dry when you first wake up and becomes wet after playing for a while.

5. Look at the eyes: Check whether there is too much eye mucus and whether the eyes are red. If so, it is unhealthy.

6. Anus: It should not be wet or have any adhesions. Puppies with diarrhea usually have the anus doors knotted together.

7. Bones: The legs should be long and form a square with the abdomen and the ground. The back should be straight and not arched. A puppy with an arched back may be rickets.

8. Ears and mouth: should be free of odor.

9. Spirit: Lively and energetic.

Teddy’s appearance

Body shape: Teddy’s body shape is the main factor that directly determines its price. The smaller the dog, the more expensive it is. The most expensive is the teacup dog.

Speaking of teacup dogs, the editor knows that teacup dogs are very popular, especially among cute girls. But I have to tell you a cruel reality. Teacup dogs are a breed developed by humans through growth-inhibiting hormones and unscientific breeding methods in order to satisfy their own aesthetics. This species does not originally exist in nature.

Any creature that goes against the laws of nature will have various problems. Most teacup dogs have hydrocephalus. This disease is incurable and will cause the dog's eyes to swell and make it impossible to maintain balance when walking. In addition to hydrocephalus, skull failure, blood sugar disorders, easy fractures and dislocations, digestive and heart diseases are also common diseases in teacup dogs. To raise this kind of dog, you must be prepared for a large amount of medical expenses. Even if you are a wealthy person, the editor does not recommend everyone to breed. Without buying and selling, there would be no perverted breeders!

Puppies are all about the same size, so how do you know what they will look like when they grow up? Then you have to look at the pups. For example, the daughter of Yao Ming and Ye Li will definitely be taller than Pan Changjiang in the future. . .

Coat color: I bought a toy Teddy 6 months ago. The coat color is very unstable, because the color of the Teddy will change as he grows up. This is due to genetic instability. Some are getting better, and some are getting worse. . For red ones, there is a chance that the color will fade. When choosing, it is best to look at the coat color of the parents, so that you can generally have an idea of ​​the puppy's coat color.

Hair volume: Generally, the more, the better. But be careful when selecting, use a comb to comb the hair, and then look at the roots of the skin - the appearance can sometimes deceive your eyes, especially when the hair is curly. After dog owners comb their dogs, they should check whether there are any symptoms of skin diseases such as red spots and spots on Teddy's skin.

Appearance: The main thing is to look at the head - if you want a Teddy-like dog, then you should choose a round head and a short mouth, like a small apple. Also, please note that the eyes should be almond-shaped (small bean eyes), not big and round. Of course, personal preference is the most important. .

Coat quality: Too soft is not good, too hard is not good, and it is even worse if it feels dry and astringent. You should also pay attention to the growth direction of the hair. You must know that Teddy's ancestor was an otter dog, and the hair is spiral.

Another thing everyone should pay attention to: be careful about dyeing dogs! Nowadays, some evil sellers will dye dogs. Some are dyed from white dogs, and some are dyed because their coat color is not bright enough. They want to get a higher price through dyeing. Everyone must be careful!

If nothing else, let it take two steps to see if there is any lameness.
