Alaskan Malamute (Detailed Introduction)

       Most people probably dislike the plum rain season, as it often rains heavily and the air becomes very humid, making people feel uncomfortable. Since the plum rain season increases the humidity in the air, extra care must be taken when looking after dogs to prevent their fur from becoming damp, which easily breeds bacteria. Let's discuss the precautions for taking care of dogs during the plum rain season.

       1. Keep their sleeping area dry by frequently taking the dog bed outside to air out or using a hair dryer. If the dog bed becomes too damp, dogs can develop eczema, and in severe cases, mites. Skin diseases take a long time to treat and are prone to recurrence.

       2. After going out on rainy days, be sure to completely dry the dog's fur thoroughly. Do not be careless or do it superficially.

       3. When the sun is out, be sure to take them outside to enjoy the sun. This not only promotes calcium absorption but also ensures the fur stays dry and has a certain antibacterial effect.

       4. At just over 2 months old is the time for vaccinations. Within 7 days after vaccination, be extra cautious. If this period falls during the plum rain season, make sure the dog does not catch a cold, as this is when their immunity is at its lowest.

       5. When the meteorological bureau issues a blue heavy rain or yellow thunderstorm warning, for the safety of both you and your dog, avoid going outside to prevent your dog from getting wet and catching a cold.

       In fact, the main focus during the plum rain season is to ensure the dog’s living environment and fur stay dry. Because humid air is the best environment for bacteria to thrive, if owners do not pay attention, dogs are very likely to develop skin diseases, so we must take this seriously.
