However, how well the dog can be trained still depends on the owner's training approach and methods. Even if the owner’s training is not very effective, this intelligent dog basically will not disappoint, and guarding the home is definitely not an issue.

When owners want to raise one, there are some precautions to be aware of:

Do not bathe Langqing puppies within 20 days of bringing them home to avoid catching a cold. Also, avoid taking them for walks or letting them contact other dogs because their bodies cannot yet handle the external environment. This is to prevent diseases and allow time for adaptation, so owners should not rush.

Puppies usually only know they are hungry but do not know when they are full, so they will keep eating. Owners need to be careful not to overfeed, as this can harm the puppy’s stomach and intestines. Also, puppies cannot digest some meat and other harder foods yet, which can cause digestive burdens. Generally, feeding puppy dog food 2-3 times a day is sufficient, and it can be softened with warm water before feeding.

In fact, the Langqing dog is very intelligent and is an excellent guard dog.
