Protection
Feeding the right food for Irish Terriers is very important for the healthy growth of Irish Terriers. The food it eats has a great effect on its appearance, luster, and health.
Unsuitable food will affect the development and growth of the Irish Terrier, and it often cannot be supplemented in the later stages. From the beginning of the puppy period, it must be fed with nutritious and balanced food, preferably dog food. Generally, dog food has the nutrients needed by all dogs, including protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals and other basic ingredients, which are sufficient to provide the dog's growth needs, so there is no need to feed other snacks.
The lactation volume of Irish Terrier bitches with normal supplementary feeding generally reaches its peak around 21 days after birth. However, the puppies grow and develop rapidly and the amount of milk needed gradually decreases. Therefore, supplementation should be adopted starting from the 10th day after birth. Feeding method. Start replenishing water from the age of 10 days; add food around the 15th day, pour the rice soup into a small plate for the puppies to lick; around the 20th day, porridge can be used; after the 25th day, feed can be added to the porridge, and the feed ranges from 20 to 30 grams. Gradually reduce to 200~300 grams and supplementary feeding 3~4 times a day.
Artificially fed and fostered female dogs give birth to many litters. When the female dog has no milk or dies after giving birth, her puppies should be artificially fed or fostered. Artificial feeding of artificially fed puppies should be placed in the delivery room and covered with bedding or old cotton wool to maintain a suitable temperature. Milk is artificially fed and fed from a bottle. Within 10 days after birth, feed the puppies every 2 to 3 hours during the day and every 4 to 6 hours at night. The puppies should not be less than 100 ml per night. The amount of breast milk should be increased from 200 ml to 300 ml within 10 to 20 days. Starting from 20 days old, in addition to 300 ml of milk, other food types and quantities should also be reduced.
The female dog fostered should be one with a gentle nature, good mothering ability and high milk production. It is better to foster puppies that are of average age or that have been out and about for only a few days. If some female dogs stop breastfeeding, the puppies can be coated with the foster mother's milk or urine. If the negative smell is common, the female dog can be encouraged to replace the milk. If the puppies are fostered during delivery and the puppies are coated with amniotic fluid, they will be more likely to be handed over to the mother dog.
Irish Terrier Bathing
First, bathing the dog should be done in the morning or noon, and not when the air humidity is high or on rainy days. Immediately after washing, blow with a hair dryer or wipe with a towel. Do not leave your dog in the sun after bathing.
Second, you must comb the coat before bathing. This can not only remove the tangled hair and prevent the coat from getting more tangled, but also remove large pieces of dirt to facilitate cleaning. Especially around the mouth, behind the ears, armpits, inner thighs, toe tips, etc., the areas that dogs least want to be groomed need to be combed and cleaned. When combing, in order to reduce and avoid the pain of the dog, you can hold the root of the hair with one hand and comb it with the other hand.
Third, the temperature of the bathing water should not be too high or too low. Generally, 36-37 degrees is appropriate in spring.
Fourth, when bathing, be sure to prevent shampoo from flowing into the dog's eyes or ears. When flushing, be sure to rinse thoroughly and do not allow foam or shampoo to remain on the dog's body to avoid irritating the skin and causing dermatitis.
Fifth, after washing and blowing, be sure to clean the dog’s ears. If there is ear hair, pluck out the ear hair and clean it.
