With regular vet check-ups, a balanced diet, and following a vaccination and medication program, prevention is key for common health problems in dogs. Regular grooming, dental care, and exercise also contribute to their overall well-being.
Puppy training can start as early as 8 weeks of age. Focus on basic commands such as "sit", "stay", and "come", as well as socialization throughout their growing years.
Hyperactivity in an anabul can be addressed by increasing physical and mental exercise. By incorporating longer walks, playtime, and brain-teasing games into their routine to help them use their energy to the fullest, your anabul will be less likely to engage in unnecessary activities.
Spaying (for females) and neutering (for males) generally have health and behavioral benefits, including preventing certain cancers and reducing aggressive tendencies. Consult your veterinarian to determine the best time to perform these procedures based on your dog's breed and age.
Regular dental care is important to prevent dental disease. You can brush your dog's teeth using a toothbrush and toothpaste specifically for pets. Providing treats or food in the form of chewable sticks or tablets can also be beneficial for keeping your dog's teeth clean. In addition, if tartar has formed on your dog's teeth, you need to consult a veterinarian for cleaning such as dental scaling.

Helps to reduce spraying (indiscriminate marking), prevents cats from running away from home, prevents urinary disorders, reduces aggression, reduces the risk of testicular tumors / reproductive organ diseases, and helps in population control.
Giving birth control injections is easy and can last for a certain period of time, so it is widely used as an alternative. However, giving birth control injections can trigger dangerous diseases in cats, such as breast tumors, uterine tumors and pyometra. Pyometra is the accumulation of pus in the feline reproductive tract. These diseases are difficult to cure and certainly require a lot of money for treatment.
Given the dangers, veterinarians have long abandoned the injectable birth control method in cats. This method is considered old-fashioned by veterinarians. Instead of improving a cat's quality of life, birth control injections may endanger the cat's life in the future.
