Caucasian Shepherds need 4 to 5 cups of dry food a day, which can be served into two meals. Dividing their food intake will help reduce the risk of bloating and stomach torsion. Especially that there is a tendency where they will overeat and gain weight.
It is needed to always assess their feeding schedule and the type and amount of food they eat. The best food options for Caucasian shepherds are high in protein and include quality vegetable ingredients. Since Caucasian shepherds drink a lot of water, it's important to have fresh water on hand at all times, most especially if you're going on an active excursion.
Their thick coat sheds heavily at least once a year. Frequent bathing and constant brushing will help remove loose or dead hairs and prevent matting. Routine grooming is absolutely essential for all dogs.
The coat of the Caucasian Shepherd can range from very long to very short. For dogs with longer coats requires regular grooming, which can also be a great way for you and your pet to bond.
To prevent overgrowth, fracturing, and cracking, their hard, fast-growing nails should be trimmed on a regular basis with a nail clipper or grinder. As you groom, check for sores, rashes, or signs of infection such as redness, tenderness, or inflammation on the skin, in the ears, nose, mouth, and eyes, and on the feet. Ears should smell good, without too much wax or gunk inside, and eyes should be clear, with no redness or discharge.
Make grooming a positive experience filled with praise and rewards, and you'll lay the groundwork for easy veterinary exams and other handling when they are an adult.
This adorable and fun dog requires 45 minutes of proper exercise per day, which you can accomplish with a couple of walks and a period of play. They love activities that satisfy their mental and physical stimulation. This is important for them to help prevent obesity.
Veterinary care is essential to a dog?s health and wellbeing, however, the frequency of treatment and checkups will depend on the dog.
Scheduled six-monthly health check visits with your vet are important to ensure your Caucasian Shepherd is healthy and happy throughout all life stages. In these annual visits, your vet will complete a physical examination, take your dog?s temperature and check his heartbeat, among other things.
Routine maintenance for your dog gives you a chance to track your dog?s growth and development, discuss any concerns with your vet, and form a key part of preventative care.
