2. Pay close attention to observe the puppies’ defecation and defecation status to determine whether it is normal
The frequency of defecation generally changes with the age of the dog. Big dogs several times a day in January, and an average of about 3 times a day by February. The frequency of defecation is related to the type of food: for example, when feeding meat and rice, the amount and frequency of feces will be less; when feeding more starchy food, the frequency and amount will be more. Pay attention to the color, smell, and presence or absence of worms in the stool of puppies. Normal stool is strip-shaped, moderately hard and soft, and usually yellowish in color. But it is also affected by food. For example, if you eat more meat or feed some liver, the feces will generally turn black.
The frequency of urination also varies with the age of the dog. For older dogs in January, about once every 2 hours, for older dogs in February, about 5-6 times a day. Urine is light yellow and clear and transparent is healthy. The first time you urinate in the morning, the color is slightly darker, but if you find that the color of the urine is always darker, you should suspect whether you are sick, and it is best to go to the animal hospital for examination.
It is best to go to the animal hospital for a physical examination every month to test stool and urine and get rid of intestinal parasites if necessary. Note: Look for an animal hospital with a good reputation and good facilities.
