Easy Tips on How to Care For Pug Puppies

A Pug is a wonderful breed to adopt and learning how to care for Pug puppies is imperative before you bring a new puppy into your home.

Like all puppies, Pugs need the right nutrients for development, especially in their first year. Proper nutrition contributes a great deal to brain development and total health so you want to be sure to feed your puppy a good quality, nutritious dog food.

How do you tell if your dog food is the best?

It is vital to review the label on any bag of dog food that you buy before using it, to make certain that it contains only healthy ingredients and does not have filler. By verifying that chicken, lamb or beef meal is the first ingredient listed, you will ensure that your young pug will get enough protein. It is unwise to give your leftovers to your pug. You should also be careful not to overfeed him, as this can lead to him becoming overweight.

Providing the best care for pug puppies also includes getting the right supplies such as bowls for food and water. Also, look for a harness that fits well and a leash for your little guy, as well as a crate of an appropriate size and a dog bed. And don't forget toys to keep your Pug entertained!

A lot of care must be taken while buying food and water bowls for your pup. The depth and narrowness of the bowl is very important. You should buy bowls which are wide and shallow as then the risk of your pup having eye infections due to constant touching of the puppies eyes to the bowl's side or the food is almost eliminated.

The size of the crate and dog bed for your Pug is very important. These puppies although very small at the beginning will grow up ,so pick up something which will be able to house him through a period of time. If you are going for a larger crate you can divide it using a partition when he is small and latter on remove the partition to accommodate him after he has grown up.

It is a good idea to use a harness on your Pug instead of a dog collar. A harness fits around the dog's body, as opposed to collars that are attached around the dog's neck. Pulling on a collar can constrict the windpipe and this can lead to choking. To avoid damage to your Pug's windpipe or any other potential problems, the best choice is a harness.

If you've got a good head on your shoulders and know the basics of good canine care, you'll have no problem learning how to care for Pug puppies. Just be sure to provide good food, a loving home, and proper veterinarian care, and you'll have a healthy and happy buddy for life!
