Not to mention for those lovers of long-haired breed of dog. Wow ... during the summer, get ready for the storm just fine (doggie hair storm). 

But calm down To deal with all of the following that I would share a few tips from experience and the lessons I learned from several books on dog care and the internet.

First we need to realize is what and where the origin of our dogs. My point here is that, before starting treatment we first identify a pet dog. Especially for fans of dog breeds, because many of the types of dog breeds that originate from areas or countries with much colder climates. If a dog that we have comes from cold climates, then we must be ready with the super extra care. In addition to understand the genealogy of dogs, we must understand about the physical condition of the dog, whether he's kind of big dogs, medium or small-bodied breeds (Toys). In addition, an understanding of the condition of hair is also very necessary. Of course we must give more attention to the long-haired breed of dog.

Once we understand the type and pedigree dogs, then the next one is a method of treatment of the dog's body. For that please refer to the following steps. 

1. Get used to start the day by cleaning the dog's face from the eyes, ears, nose and mouth. We recommend using a type of soft cloth that has been moistened with water.
    
2. Dogs are basically happy with the water, but bathing the dog too often can bring adverse implications for the treatment of dog hair, especially long hair. It is advisable to bathe the dog 1-2 times a week in normal conditions. After the bath, keep the dog hair is really dry.
    
3. Be diligent to cut dog's nails are already long. But remember, do not we cut the blood vessels in the dog's nails are looking much brighter.
    
4. Strive to always clean up dog hair from the dirt by combing or brushing.
    
5. Occasionally check and clean the dog's teeth with a toothbrush.
    
6. Provide de-worming, and vaccination of dogs according to age.

The following are also no less important is that we must maintain the cleanliness of the neighborhood dogs. Because if we look less clean, it will be bad not only for our pet dog, but can also be fatal for our own health. And finally, be diligent to check our pet dog to the vet. This is not something that is absolute and force, but only a few of my experiences and some knowledge I can from the internet, as well as dog care books, who want to share with fellow dog lovers everywhere.

But keep a puppy just like to keep the baby that needs a lot of attention. Hence why puppies should be vaccinated on a regular basis, because the puppy is still susceptible to the disease that often can threaten its survival.
 The puppy is still frequent bowel movements and feces indiscriminately and more often than adult dogs and puppies sometimes can take his own feces. Still like to bite bite objects, so often you will have bitten old carpet, sandals / shoes are damaged, a table leg or other equipment of interest to the dog to bite.
