Key Points for Raising Portuguese Water Dogs
Portuguese Water Dog (Detailed Introduction)
Because they have long lived at sea, Portuguese Water Dogs might be interested in seafood and fish. However, owners should be aware that these are not beneficial for them. Items like salted fish, dried small fish and shrimp, cured and pickled meats should be avoided when feeding them, and this must be carefully noted during the raising process.
The dog's food does not have to be particularly good; sometimes when owners feed what they think is beneficial, it actually causes discomfort. Therefore, owners also need to train them to understand what they should and should not eat. This way, even when outside walking, they won’t pick up random dirty things from the ground.
Portuguese Water Dogs have a relatively large amount of exercise, so calcium supplementation cannot be neglected. Calcium powder, pet milk powder, and nutritional paste can all effectively help supplement their calcium.
