Instructions
Step 1
In the first days after moving to a new place, feed your baby the same food that he received from the breeder. Be sure to stick to the same meal schedule. If you forgot to inquire about these details when you purchased a Chow Chow puppy, be sure to contact the former owners and clarify for yourself any questions that have arisen. You can also get detailed information from veterinarians or in books on keeping this dog breed.
Step 2
Adjust the amount of food you need, but try not to overfeed your puppy. Usually a chow-chow baby is fed 4-6 times a day. The food left in the bowl should be eaten whole. The best time to feed is after a walk. In the most extreme case, you can feed him 2 hours before her.
Step 3
Learn to cook cottage cheese for your ward. He is very useful to him. Pour a liter of milk and a liter of kefir into a saucepan. Put on low heat and wait until the mixture curdles. It is not necessary to bring it to a boil. Then discard the mixture in a colander. When the whey is drained, the curd is ready. It should be given to the puppy in a slightly warm form. Slightly warmed food is also recommended for adult dogs.
Step 4
Don't forget that your little pet is a dog. It is not at all necessary for him to prepare a varied and exquisite table. Moreover, some dogs prefer only dry food more and do not like natural food very much. Stop at one diet, train your puppy to eat it and feed it all the time.
Step 5
Choose, for example, an option whereby your puppy will eat both natural foods and ready-to-eat foods as they grow older and in the future. Only buy dry food and canned food that can be mixed with natural food and that your little chow prefers. For the basis of the diet, a variety of cereals with vegetable broths, stewed vegetables without adding salt and spices are quite suitable. You can give the puppy fish, chicken, beef. However, it is worth looking out for if your dog is allergic to any type of meat.
Step 6
Carefully read the label information on the composition of the food and monitor the content of vitamins A and D. It is also important to consider the presence of B vitamins and the presence of biotin for general well-being and hair formation. Protein content is equally important for young puppies. Give preference to foods that contain at least 25% of them. The fat content can vary up to 17%.
Step 7
As your ward grows, recalculate his food intake, taking into account vitamins and mineral supplements. He must receive the required amount of proteins, carbohydrates and fats.
Step 8
Never forget to keep an eye on the presence and freshness of water in your pet's bowl.
