Husky Puppy Breeding Methods:
Generally, the first 3 months after birth are mainly for growth of carcass and body weight, 4 to 6 months are mainly for increase of body length, and 7 months later are mainly for growth of body height. Therefore, different rations should be prepared according to different stages of development. Weaned puppies, due to the sudden change in living conditions, often appear to be restless, loss of appetite, easy to get sick, when the selected feed should be palatable and easy to digest.
Puppies within 3 months should be fed at least 4 times a day. For dogs with poor appetite, you can use the method of feeding the second, then feeding the good, and adding less and feeding more often. The first after the good can keep the dog’s appetite strong, less added to feed the dog can always make the dog do not have a sense of satiety, so as not to be tired of, picky eaters. Puppies less than 3 months old should be fed with rice, sour milk or soy milk and add the right amount of chopped fish, meat and chopped boiled vegetables. In order to reduce the cost of feed without affecting the nutrition of puppies, pigs, cattle lungs and other organs can be boiled and chopped, and vegetables, cornmeal and other cooked food mixed and fed to the dog, so that both the economy, the dog and love to eat.
Puppies between 4 and 6 months of age eat more and gain weight quickly, and the amount of feed they need daily increases, so they should be fed at least 3 times a day.
After 6 months of age, 2 feedings per day are sufficient – puppies should be fed the original owner’s recipes first and gradually converted.
Some people think, such as feeding all the meat to the dog, can make the dog grow strong, in fact, this is the wrong approach. Eat meat not only can not make the dog strong, but due to indigestion, difficult to absorb and most dogs have diarrhea.
Puppies get most of their essential nutrients from their mother’s milk until they are weaned. By the time the puppy moves to its new home, it should be fully weaned and on solid food. He will then be totally dependent on his new owner to provide him with a balanced diet to get all the nutrients he needs.
All puppies will grow quickly early on, and typically most breeds will reach half the weight of an adult dog by four or five months of age. However, different breeds mature at different rates – for example, larger dogs have a longer growth period than smaller dogs, and small ornamental dogs reach their adult weight at eight – nine months of age, while large dogs are still growing at that age. For example, a Newfoundland or Great Dane will not grow to adult dog size until 18 months of age.
Large or giant dogs are particularly susceptible to dietary influences – because these dogs grow so quickly, their bones are susceptible to dietary influences as they develop. At this stage, it is unwise to overfeed in order to maximize their rapid growth.
Energy Requirements of Puppy Huskies
Since growth is energy intensive, a puppy needs two to four times the energy of an adult dog of the same size. They must consume more protein than an adult dog – which includes the amino acids they need to grow, as well as minerals for bones and teeth. So puppies must eat a lot of food, but they should not be fed a lot at a time. It is best to formulate their food to meet a number of criteria:
(1) Foods are highly nutritious to ensure that they receive adequate nutrients when they are full; and
(2) Food is easily digested to maximize nutrient absorption.
(3) The diet must be balanced to provide the right amount of nutrients to meet the specific needs of the puppy, and the food must be palatable only to the puppy.
Formulating a nutritionally balanced diet for your puppy’s growth can be complicated, and if you want to feed your puppy a supplement, you should check with your veterinarian first to make sure it won’t harm your dog.
Feeding Times for Puppy Huskies
Feeding time can be selected in the morning or evening, it is best to walk back after defecation, combed hair, cleaned up and organized and then feed, in order to make it every day life are regular. Just grown up Husky adult dog active, physical energy consumption, so must pay attention to provide nutritious, high-calorie food.
To prevent it from getting too fat, try not to feed it anything other than its regular meals. However, in order to make its teeth, bones and jaws grow stronger, you can occasionally give it some cow or pig bones with high calcium content to chew on. It is not good to eat too many bones, so it is enough to give it twice a week.
Usually indoor huskies live longer than large outdoor huskies. While every husky is not exactly the same, it is usually important to refer to it as active when it is 2-7 years old, and after 8-9 years old it is already the equivalent of middle-aged human age.
From then on, the Husky will slowly lose its vitality and gradually develop the characteristics of a geriatric Husky. The metabolism of the Husky entering old age has been declining and consuming fewer calories, so health issues must be on the agenda.
You can feed it foods that are low in protein and low in fat during this period.
