Schnauzer How should the baby be fed from birth to weaning? The following is the feeding method for Xiaoxue, hoping to help the owner of the schnauzer.
The Schnauzer dog was born. The first meal of a Schnauzer dog is colostrum, which is an important factor for the healthy growth of Teddy dogs. Breast milk, whose composition is very different from breast milk at other times. Colostrum contains high protein, fat, rich vitamins, has a laxative effect, and can promote the excretion of puppy feces. Colostrum contains a variety of antibodies, which have a great protective effect on puppies whose body's anti-disease mechanism is not yet complete. Generally, mother Schnauzers can breastfeed their puppies a few hours after giving birth. Newly-born puppies will find their nipples by smell and touch. For frail puppies, owners should place them next to the nipples that are rich in milk.
Schnauzer puppy is breastfeeding. There are many Schnauzer mothers who will not take care of their newborn babies. Due to long-term artificial breeding, and they are favored by their owners as play dogs, some Schnauzer mothers will have weak motherhood. At this time, the owner You can pinch the puppies gently to make them bark to stimulate the bitch's desire to protect, or you can force the bitch to lie down and accept the Schnauzer's milk. When the Schnauzer's mother's milk is insufficient, the owners can help the dog mother, and must not use special pet dog milk powder for medicinal purposes. When the Schnauzer babies are 20 days old, the mother dog's milk volume will gradually decrease. At this time, you should be able to give the babies some soft dog food. At this time, it is necessary to observe the puppies The poop, if not changing, is to slowly increase the number of wolves enough. Schnauzer babies after 20 days should also be dewormed. Most puppies will be infected with intestinal parasites from the bitch through the placenta or milk, so when they are 20 days old, they should be dewormed once, and then once a month. Until half-year-old, once every quarter from half-year-old, and once every half-year after adulthood.
The Schnauzer is weaned. Weaning is an important lesson for teddy dogs. When they are just weaned, dogs are very easy to get sick, because the antibodies they got from their mothers have disappeared, and new antibodies have not yet been generated. Nutrition is an important factor in ensuring the healthy growth of Schnauzer dogs. After a period of snacking, the babies gradually got used to the soft-soaked dog food. The dogs should be weaned after 30 days. After weaning, the owners should choose high-nutrition formula dog food for the dogs. The puppy's gastrointestinal function is not yet perfect, so the owner should follow the principle of eating less and more meals when feeding. The following are the feeding times in different periods: 3 months after weaning, 3-4 times a day, 3-6 months, 3 times a day, 2 times a day from June to adulthood, and 1 time a day after adulthood.
