The Chinese Shar Pei is an excellent friend and companion, devoted to the owner and loving all members of his family. He is friends with children and pets, quickly learns to order, he can be kept in city apartments. In addition, the Shar Pei has a peculiar and very original appearance that distinguishes him from a series of dogs on any site. In order for a puppy to show all its excellent qualities from childhood, it must be properly educated.
Instructions
Step 1
From the first days in the house, show the dog its place. Shar Pei love large baskets or bumpers - they feel safe on them. Buy your puppy a "growing" bed and complement it with a soft mattress that can be washed in the machine.
Step 2
Follow the feeding regimen. Shar Pei has a rather sensitive stomach and can be prone to allergies. Choose the right diet and divide your daily allowance into two servings - morning and evening. Stop your dog picking up scraps on the street and limit the number of homemade treats.
Step 3
The peculiar appearance of the Shar Pei sometimes frightens passers-by. They may not be aware of your pet's friendly and phlegmatic disposition. Therefore, in crowded places, the dog must wear a collar with a leash and a muzzle. Let him off the leash only in nature or on the territory of the dog playground.
Step 4
Do not tire the animal with long walks. Shar Pei do not like bad weather and hot sun. Long marathon distances are also not to their liking. Favorite leisure option for this dog is philosophical contemplation of the surroundings from your favorite couch or noisy home games.
Step 5
Don't leave your dog alone for a long time. Shar Pei are very sociable. It is good if there are children or other pets in the house who will become playmates for the dog.
Step 6
Teach your puppy to be hygienic. Features of the skin require the obligatory washing of the dog every 40-45 days. The dog should calmly stand in the bath, waiting for the end of the procedure. Do not let the puppy twirl and jump out of the water, otherwise you will not be able to cope with an adult dog afterwards. Brush your pet's coat daily with a rubber short-haired brush.
Step 7
Shar Pei is sensitive to low temperatures. Buy your dog a warm jumpsuit or knit a warm sweater for him. Such equipment will help to lengthen the time of winter walks. Be sure to protect your dog's paw pads from salt and chemicals. Lubricate them with a special cream or put on special waterproof boots on your pet before each going out.
