The acquisition of the puppy
Have you decided to buy the puppy? Never mind for which purpose: to guard the house, to protect yourselves, the pedigree breeding or simply you want to have a friend. In the given article we shall speak about little friends, really so little simply tiny with comparisons of such breeds as: rotveiler, doberman, dog, ST. Bernard, the black terrier and the other kinds the breeds. We shall speak about such bread as the toy-terries (toy-dog). If it is settled to acquire the pure breed dog it should be known that to guarantee the origin of the dog can only the official document about the origin of the puppy (Registration certificate of the dog-fancier of the kennel union of that state in which you acquire the puppy, latter on (in six months) is changed in the club of the dog -farm for the genealogy in which are pointed the ancestors of the given puppy). Exactly the availability of this document will be the confirmation that your little one will become the tiny pedigree dog and not the mongrel with the height of spaniel or the fox-terrier
It is better to acquire the puppy in the nursery, here you can choose really a good puppy and also the fraud is excluded as for the dog-fancier is above all the name of the nursery and its authority. It should not be in a hurry to take the puppy in the first seeing litter-puppy, which you will see. Relate to it seriously acquiring the dog, you will to it the close friend more ten-year period.
Before doing the choice and buy the puppy it is necessary to learn the standard of the given breed. The puppies of the toy-terrier at the age of the two - three month are very little and it is enough difficult to say which kind the puppy will grow. For this it is necessary to see the parents of the puppy (the he-dog must be less of the she-dog and the she-dog mustn't excess the rate of the standard 28 centimeters in the withers). At the age of the four months it is enough exactly one can say which the dog will be.
It should be known that the toy-terrier must have the standard color. And the availability of the white spots on the body and the extremities of the puppy, there is a big drawback by the taking part of the dog of the given breed in the exhibition even the disqualification.
Buying at all the tiny puppy it should be remembered, that it is necessary to treat with the extreme care - any inattention can bring to the irreparable consequences. If it is the she-dog and you are going in consequence to couple, that the super small height if far off not the better choice as there is the probability of that the dog can't give birth and will be lost.
The super small height can't be the end in itself. Harmonically the formed dog of the average sizes always will be preferable and more valuable is rather little mediocrity formed of the super little dog.
Examining the teeth of the puppy it is worth to pay attention to the bite: it is not to be like scissors with a very small not to bite. As far as the number of the teeth concerned it is necessary to take into consideration the availability all tusks (4) and the cutting teeth can be (12), through after the changing of the teeth can be (11) them.
Remember - choosing a dog, you choose a friend and you are responsible for it.

The filling of the puppy.
Acquiring the puppy in the dog-fancier try to know what the puppy has feed on was used to expel of hookworms, if was vaccination and if it was, that which vaccination he (she) inoculated and define the dates of the inoculations. As a rule the first time of the inoculation is at 9-11 weeks, the second time is in the three weeks, the third one is at the age of the 6-7 month .
At the beginning it should be to feed the puppy as it has feeded by the dog-fancier (some days), and then littely by little pass to the another ration. All books about dogs write about the different rations for the puppies (from three months) and also for the adult dogs. From my own experience I want to say that I feed my dogs by that food, which the man uses in the everyday ration, by all means it is necessary to give the bones with the cartilages and the fodder (sometimes) for the massage of the gum and the dog can take down the thin coating (the formation of the stone) from the teeth. In everyday ration I except the fodder , I prefer to give the dog the natural food. From the ration of the puppy it should to except a rich food, the bones of the fish and the tubular bones of the bird (it is necessary to cut periosteum and the rest to throw out) as it can traumatize the mouth cavity, and also can be the reason of the trauma of the inside organs or puppy (or the adult dog) simply can choke over.
Many dog-fancier complain that the dogs give up to eat. In this case it is necessary to give the vitamins to the dog, can be used the different complex vitamins which are sold at the chemist's shop, one or two vitamins a day.
Very often the giving up from eat simply may be the spoiling of the dog by the dog-fancier. In this case it is necessary to discipline the dog-fancier and then to accustom the dog to the discipline.
- Put the serving bowl, if during of five minutes the dog doesn't eat , put away in the refrigerator to the next feeding, not thinking about that your charm will be hungry. And during the next feeding well give the same that was at the previous feeding. As up to that time while the dog doesn't "clear up" the serving bowl.
- Not any additions delicacies and so on.
- When everything is all right you can give the delicacies and that it the dog is to be worthy of it (to do the command "to site", "to lie", "the place", "come here to me" and so on).
- It is not to refeed the dog, as a rule the puppies are feeded four - five times a day not very big portions, the adult dog two - three times also not big portions. If the dog is refeeded it will result in obesity.
The main thing is to display the strictness and not cruelty and your relations with a dog reach the mutual understanding.

The keeping and the caring.
The choice has done. One member of the family else has appeared in your house. May be during the first minutes your small dog will be frightened in the new surrounding without its mother, brothers and sisters. Live it’s a chance to be at home in a situation. Let it take a look round and sniff all round. It is desirable not to leave a small dog alone during the first days. The change of the conditions and the isolation from mother are beared by the puppies differently. So take a puppy is necessary only by two hands, holding under the chest and the belly, it is enough to hold strongly. If the puppy slips out and will fall down on the floor, there are possible the serious traumas. If the puppy is at home alone you must think of its safety: put away all small things which the puppy can swallow from the zone of the reach. Put away the wires of the lengthening and the electric appliance. The great danger can be contained in everyday chemistry and medicines. Some of the puppies show the ability as to the clambering somewhere higher: on the sofa, on the arm-chair, on the table, on the window-sill and after that strive to jump from there downwards. It is fraughtly with the fractures and bruises. If the puppy is not enough strong so as to jump independently from the arm-chair and sofa, shut the approach to them. Best of all to buy the special open-air cage where you’ll leave your small puppy for the time of your absence. So you can be absolutely quiet for the safety of your small dog. Later on this open-air cage can be useful for your puppies, if you have bought she-dog and plan its pedigree use. Never allow the puppy to do that, what can’t do the adult dog: to sleep together with you in the same bed, to climb on the tables and so on. The dog will grow and the habits were left. Mach easier to train the puppy at once all the rules of the conduct, than to learn again already the adult dog. It should not give the toys to the puppy with the metallic squeaker which it can swallow. The great danger can present the toys which are made of plastic, spongy rubber, paralon and polyfoam. The puppies crack them into pieces and swallow, it carries the threat for the life of the puppy though a little cracks the toy it should be taken away right then. On no account don’t give the old slippers as the toy. Then it will difficult to explain the puppy the difference between them and your good boots and shoes. It is possible to give the special bones which are made of tendon. Some of them besides evacuate the teeth. They are sold in the great number in the zoological shops. These bones will help very much by the change of the teeth. If there are some more animals in the house. The puppy must be acquainted with all of them; however it can be done correctly. If there is a cat in the house, shut it in another room. Bring in the puppy and give it to look round, after that take it away release the cat and give it to sniff round the rooms where the puppy was just now. It is not necessary some days not to organize the direct meetings. And only when the cat gets used to the smell of the puppy and the puppy is saturated by the smell of your house then you can organize the meeting for them. If the cat was aggressive, take it in your hands and to caress. Give it to understand that in this house it is loved only it, the cat, doesn’t pay attention to the puppy. May be for the first time the cat will relate to the puppy absolutely indifferently, afterwards by all means they will make friends. Don’t caress the puppy at the presence of the cat during the first days. If there’s another dog in your house, does it on the contrary caress the puppy at the presence of the big dog. It will understand that the small puppy is necessary o love. It is the new member of its pack.
Still up to the appearance of a dog it should be to prepare the constant place for sleeping. The bedding should be contained in the maximum cleanness. In summer it will be preferred the bedding from the cotton, as far as it can’t allow the skin of the dogs without hair to become too hot and damp and prevent the formation of the rash. The place of the is to be situated so, that it doesn’t feel itself as a spare. It mustn’t be in the corridor, in the bathroom. From that so the place will be more comfortable, depends that, were the dog will sleep letter on.
From the first days it is necessary to train the puppy to such procedures, as the cleaning of the ears and eyes, cutting of the claws. Usually the dog-fancier begins to be occupied with it. At the age of the two –three months the great number of the puppies furiously oppose, fully seriously biting and howling. It is necessary to shake up the puppy very nicely, to raise your voice at it, but in any case so necessary to try to get of the quiet conduct. Soon after the puppy will stop to yelp and to bite and will give you to working up, for that it in necessary actively to praise it, and after the procedure you can offer something nice. If you don’t break its resistance at the early age so in the future you will not be able to control the dog. If the dog allows to do everything possible with itself, that is necessary, not feeling the fear and humiliation it means that everything is all right, one can affirm that you was a success to try to get of the good contact with a dog for all remaining combined life.

Caring of the teeth.
Caring of the teeth in the toy-terriers requires of the special attention. During the change of the teeth, the milk incisors and the tusks in the dogs of this breed mostly don’t fall out and it is necessary to apply to the doctor for their extraction. If the milk teeth are not extracted in time (next to the milk teeth grows the basic tooth-effect of the double teeth) the invariable teeth grow not on their place. I will the rests of the food are filled between the unfitted milk and the basic teeth, that leads to the carious and the early falling out of the teeth.
Caring of the ears.
The dogs of this breed are to have the large standing ears. These ears are predisposed to the hit of the duster and the piling of a mud. That’s why it is necessary periodically the external ear cleaning. Not infrequently it is happened that of two, three-month puppy the ears are hung. In this case it is necessary to apply the massage, the gluing of the ears (the cardboard is glued inside of the external ear by the plaster for the fixation of the ear in the standing position). If it is not done, may be the ear or both ears can be remained in the hanging position, it will be considered as disqualification by the taking part in the exhibition.
Caring of the claws.
The toy-terriers are possessed by a little weight and that’s why the friction of the claws against the soil is not big, because of it even in those dogs which are regularly taken a walk the nails are grinded off insignificantly and they grow enough quickly. It should cut only that part of the claw which consists of the horny tissue. If the claw is cut to the blood, you must work up the wound with the antiseptic. The process of cutting the claws leads many dogs to the shock and they resist furiously. So better enfold the dog to protruded only one paw and dog did not see the process.
P.S. If you see that something is wrong with your dog and don’t understand the reason of its lethargy by all means apply to the veterinary surgery clinic, without losing a moment. Otherwise it will be late
