Many inexperienced dog owners may not be aware that their pet can become hypothermic.
This is a dangerous condition that can lead to serious complications in the form of diseases.
Therefore, it is better to prepare in advance by protecting your pet from hypothermia.
What are the basic rules?
Cloth
If you are the owner of a dog with short legs and smooth fur, then you cannot do without quality clothing. Otherwise, the dog will constantly be sick, experts warn.
Adaptation
During the dog's first winter, the adaptation procedure must be carried out correctly. If you harden the animal, then walks in the cold will not harm the pet.
Avoid long walks
Instead of long walks, it is worth choosing shorter ones, but you will have to increase their number. However, it is important to remember that some dog breeds tolerate winter very well, as this is their natural habitat.
Therefore, it is important to take into account the characteristics of the breed.
If your pet needs to walk a lot to stay in shape, then you should reduce the duration of walks, but look for an additional option for physical activity.
