Raising a Shiba Inu is actually the same as raising a child, if you choose to raise it, then you have to be mentally prepared, raising a Shiba Inu needs to walk the dog, need to be accompanied, need to be taught, need to be cleaned, need to pay money, and also need to pay responsibility to him (because I have seen a lot of raising and not wanting to raise it, feeling troublesome, feeling dirty and other reasons and then choosing to abandon it or resell) for the dog, it is not good for the owner, so if you choose to raise a dog, you must think about these problems first! ! Don’t blindly follow the trend to raise a little life. Before your Shiba Inu arrives home, it’s best to prepare the following:
1. Dog kennel: It is recommended to choose materials that are easy to clean and not easy to hide hair, and the thickness is moderate and comfortable. Although Shiba Inu is a short-haired dog, it has thick hair and a large amount of hair, and has good heat retention, so it does not need a kennel that is too warm
2. Dog cage/fence: When the Shiba Inu baby is small, he likes to bite things indiscriminately due to the tooth change stage. In order for them to let themselves go when we are not at home, a cage or fence is a must.
3. Dog toilet/pee pad: Puppies need to be trained to poop at a fixed point before they can’t go downstairs, and pee pads help with training. Although dog toilets can prevent dogs from tearing pee pads, I personally think the practicality is average.
4. Dog bowl: Try to choose ceramic or stainless steel as much as possible for dog bowls, which are not easy to breed bacteria.
5. Dog food: The dog food that puppies eat when they first arrive at their new home needs to be purchased with the same dog food as the seller. If you plan to replace it, it is also a gradual replacement.
6. Nutritional products: dog calcium tablets, gastrointestinal treasure, trace elements, multivitamins, lecithin.
7. Toys: Puppy toys should try to choose toys that are resistant to bites such as rubber materials, plush toys are easy to bite, and the cotton that leaks out may be eaten by puppies.
8. Nail clippers: Before Chai Baby can’t go downstairs, his nails rarely rub against the ground, so they grow quickly. It takes about a week to cut.
9. Leash and collar: It is recommended to use a collar instead of a chest and back for Shiba Inu in puppyhood, which is more helpful in training Shiba Inu to follow and refuse to eat. The leash is recommended to be retractable, but be careful not to use that kind of thin rope, which is easy to scratch.
10. Comb: It is recommended to prepare two types, one is the comb for combing, the comb head is smooth and not easy to scratch the Shiba Inu skin. One is an epilator used during the hair loss period, with dense comb teeth to comb out the floating hair of the Shiba Inu during the hair loss period.
11. Bath products: Dog shower gel, which is suitable for the pH of the dog’s skin. Deerskin towel, dog toothbrush, toothpaste.
12. Pet disinfectant: Before the chai baby will be fixed, you need to thoroughly clean the baby’s urine stains at any time to avoid leaving a smell, and the kennel also needs to be disinfected regularly with disinfectant.
