The paws of the deer dog are relatively small. Many parents often neglect to dry the gap between the paw and the paw after bathing their pet dog and drying the coat and down on the body. Because the toenails of the fawn dog are relatively compact, and the water vapor accumulates in it, it is easy to breed bacteria and cause skin diseases, and it is easy to attract various parasites.

To avoid injury, train it from an early age and prohibit it from jumping to places like stools, sofas, tables, and beds and then jumping off of them. The fawn has a strong desire to protect its own territory, and is more neurotic, so it has a strong attack on strangers or dogs who violate its territory, when it is with other breeds may fight frequently when they are raised together, resulting in some serious trauma. But the dog is loyal, intelligent and easy to train.

"chatter" when no one is paying attention. Fawn dogs also have an annoying side, that is, they like to bark, and the only ones who can barely compete with them are those who are born to bark Chihuahua, Jingba and other dog breeds. And the fawn is not like to bark at birth, but depends on its exuberant energy. When they are snubbed and ignored by their parents, they make sharp protests. General dog breeds will take a break after barking for a period of time, but the fawn can bark non-stop for two hours, and their indomitable psychology makes them even know that the owner is determined to ignore it Don't give up either. Their constant calls are just to attract the attention of their owners, which also reflects their strong dependence on humans. Therefore, before raising a fawn, parents should carefully weigh their energy and time.

Idle, don't recognize the road, don't look at the road, the deer dog is a dog that likes to idle in a sense. They often sneak out of the house to stroll elsewhere, and sometimes they have the urge to go further and further, until they are so far away that they don't even recognize the way home, which makes parents more annoyed. That is to say, if you don't close the door, when there is some temptation outside, your pet will disappear unknowingly if you can't keep it. In the modern metropolis, the fawn's ability to find his way home by himself is not enough to be commended. At the same time, what is even more frustrating is that it is not uncommon to be overwhelmed by cars because you are too focused on shopping.
