Every year, on the streets of cities, more and more often you can meet a stray dog, which shows that it was once loved and lived with its owners. As a rule, such dogs are less adapted to life on the street than mongrels born here, they cannot fend for themselves and find food. The animal is likely to die soon. We will not discuss the reasons why people throw pets on the street. We will talk about what to do if your kind heart broke down and you decided to pick up a dog in trouble.
Instructions
Step 1
Such a dog, for sure, will let you in. If she has a collar, then tie some rope or string to it as a leash, or make both a collar and a leash out of them. Give the dog the command "Home!" and you will see that most likely the dog will walk in the direction of your house.
Step 2
Feed the abandoned animal, wash it if necessary, if the size allows. At the same time, check if there is a tattoo on the dog's belly on the inner side of the thigh, which is a letter and number. This means that the dog is thoroughbred and the specialist will help you determine the breeder or kennel from which the dog was taken by the brand.
Step 3
Equip a couch by patting on which loudly say "Place!". A trained domestic dog will immediately understand this command and take its place, which you have determined for it.
Step 4
Now you need to study the announcements of the missing dogs and post your announcements that the dog has been found, preferably accompanied by a photograph. The same ad should be posted on the Internet. If you do not want to leave the dog, then in the text immediately indicate that you are ready to give the dog into good hands, maybe she will be lucky, and the new owners will respond. If you are unable to keep the dog with you, then call a specialized shelter and take the animal there.
Step 5
In the event that the previous owners of the dog were not found, and you decided to keep it for yourself, then carefully examine the animal's coat, eyes, ears and nose for discharge and defects. The dog's nose should not be dry and hot, the normal body temperature for it is 39 ° C. In any case, take her to the vet for examination and vaccinations as soon as possible.
Step 6
If the veterinarian is not nearby, then feed her with anthelmintic twice at intervals of 10 days and treat the withers with a flea spray. Maybe at first, in order not to expose the animal to new stresses, you should refuse to wash.
Step 7
Feed the animal with the same type of natural food, carefully introduce new foods into its diet so that the dog does not have digestive upset. At first, you can feed him several times a day in small portions, although then adult dogs are transferred to one or two meals a day.
Step 8
If you have other animals in the house, in order to avoid infection, keep the newcomer in quarantine for a couple of weeks, and only then start introducing them.
