Christmas is almost here and it’s time to prepare for the colder weather.
Most dogs don’t need to wear doggie clothes or coats, but smaller breed dogs with short sparse hair coats do feel the cold. If you decide to put clothes on your pet, make sure your pet feels comfortable, that it’s not too tight, and ideally not worn for more than half the day.
Prepare a cozy dog or cat bed in a warm dry place, away from any draft. Make sure to check it daily as wet bedding not only feels uncomfortable, but can also lead to skin infections.
Older pets and puppies may be sensitive to colder conditions and diseases such as arthritis, heart and respiratory problems may be aggravated in the winter.
Speak to us if you notice any health problems in your pet.
Finally, if you have feral or free running cats in your area that have access to your vehicle when it is parked, you may want to thump on the hood prior to starting your car, as cats will climb under the hoods of cars and onto the engine or surrounding area to get warm.
聖誕節快到了,是時候迎接冬天的來臨。大多數的狗隻都不需要穿衣服,但體形較小和毛髮較短的狗隻會比較怕冷,所以牠們可能有穿衣服的需要。當你為寵物穿上衣服的時候,請確保您的寵物感到舒適,衣物要合身,一半以上的時間最好都不要穿上。
老犬和幼犬在寒冷的天氣下特別容易染上疾病,另外,如關節炎,心臟病和呼吸系統等疾病,在冬季的時候也會特別容易出現。如果您發現您的寵物出現任何健康問題,請與我們聯絡。
最後,如果你車輛停泊的範圍附近會有流浪貓出沒,在開車前請拍打車輛,因為冬天貓咪都喜歡躲在車底下引擎附近取暖, 拍打車輛可以把躲在車底下的貓咪嚇走,以免造成意外。
