New Dog Owner 🐶 | The Toughest Months of Raising a Puppy‼️

Dr. Elizabeth Claire

Adult dogs have stronger immunity and are less likely to get sick 😷. So, how should we take care of puppies during their early stages⁉️ ⭕️ 0-1 month: Newborn Stage ▪️ The nutrients from the mother's milk are the best source for a puppy’s growth. It contains maternal antibodies to boost immunity. For first-time dog owners, it’s not advisable to adopt puppies younger than 3 months. If the puppy’s mom is not around, you can use lactose-free milk or goat milk powder as a substitute. ⭕️ 1-2 months: Vaccination + Deworming ▪️ This is the weaning period. Start deworming and vaccinations to boost immunity. Puppies can begin internal deworming at one month old and external deworming at two months. The first vaccination can be given at 45 days (deworm first, then vaccinate), with a week interval between deworming and vaccination, and 21 days between each vaccine dose. Ensure the puppy is healthy, active, and has a good appetite before deworming or vaccinating. ⭕️ 2-3 months: Transition to Dry Food ▪️ Puppies at this stage have fully developed senses and physical abilities, with better digestion. Their milk teeth should be complete. Gradually transition from soaked puppy food to dry kibble. This helps prevent double-row teeth. Basic training such as sit, shake hands, and potty training can also be started. ⭕️ 3-4 months: Teething Period ▪️ Puppies will start teething, losing milk teeth, and growing adult teeth. They might chew on things more, so provide teething sticks. Their puppy fur will start to shed, so feed them fish oil or cooked egg yolk to promote a healthier coat. ⭕️ 4-6 months: Growth Spurt ▪️ Puppies enter a rapid growth phase with increased appetite and noticeable growth in body size. Begin increasing meal portions gradually and reduce meal frequency from 3-5 times a day to 2-3 times. Feed them at regular times and amounts. If they eat too quickly, consider using a slow feeder bowl. ⭕️ 7-8 months: Estrus Period ▪️ During this period, puppies may become more irritable and exhibit behaviors like running off or barking without reason. Male dogs might start marking territory, and females will go into heat, so have doggy diapers ready. If you don’t plan on breeding, consider spaying or neutering. Always use a leash when walking them and stay away from dog crowds (large breeds should wear a muzzle to prevent accidents). ⭕️ 9-10 months: Shedding Period ▪️ This is the heavy shedding season, which can be challenging for owners. Regular brushing will prevent matting. Feeding fish oil or cooked egg yolk can also help maintain a healthy coat. ⭕️ 11-12 months: Maturity Stage ▪️ Dogs gradually become adults, growth slows, and their size stabilizes. Their temperament becomes more stable, and they behave better! You'll soon have a well-behaved dog! #Dogs #NewDogOwners #DogDaily #DogCare #PuppyCare #DogCareTips #PuppyLove #DogKnowledge 🐾
