Little babies usually open their eyes in 14 to 18 days. After opening their eyes, the puppy is less likely to be suppressed by their mothers. But in the first two weeks, the puppy still lives in the same place as the dog mother every day. Dog owners must pay special attention to the condition of the puppy in the cage.
1. Do not take your puppy away from home easily 2 weeks after the puppy is born, dog owners should observe the dog's condition every 2 hours. If it is not necessary, dog owners should not take their puppies out to play or go to animal hospitals, because animal hospitals are also public places and there are a lot of bacteria. Unless the dog does not eat or drink, there is no need to take the newborn puppies out of the house.
2. Pay attention to keeping warm in the weather
Dog owners also need to pay attention to the changes in the weather. For example, if they give birth in winter, they should pay attention to the insulation of the puppy, such as: the mother of the dog goes out to eat and play with the owner, and has not returned to the nest for too long, the puppy is prone to hypothermia. If you produce in the summer, you will easily grow mold because the delivery room is not ventilated and may become infected with some bacterial dermatitis. In addition, the production process will not be different due to the climate.
3. Be careful that the mother dog may crush the puppy to death. When decorating the delivery room for the dog, one thing should be paid attention to: do not be too soft on the towel or straw on the bottom of the kennel, be careful that the mother dog may crush the puppy to death.
Although dog mothers and babies like to lie on soft and comfortable straws or towels, if they are too soft, the baby will easily get in if there is a gap. As a result, the dog mother does not see the puppy, and turns over or steps on it, the baby will be easily injured or die. Therefore, when dog owners prepare for delivery rooms, they should pay special attention to this.
