Proper Care for Alaskan Dogs
These dogs are a very popular breed so we've laid out what we feel every new dog owner should know when undergoing the responsibility of becoming a new dog owner.
Routine Care, Diet, and Exercise
- These are active and vocal dogs, be aware that they "talk alot" and will let you know
- These dogs coats are prone to shedding so in order to mitigate this, you need to brush them daily to get rid of any excess hair.
- These dogs have very thick coats so they're prone to overheating, if you can provide them with a pool or a way for them to cool off if you live in a warm state.
- These breeds of dogs are generally considered working dogs. So any way you can play with them or burn off any excess energy the better otherwise you'll hear it from them!
- Try to keep these dogs in fenced in areas when put outside or on a lead, because they will run if not trained properly
- An important aspect of these dogs health is their diets. It's important to not feed them table scraps and to understand what they could potentially be alergic to.
- Utimately it's responsibility as a dog owner to understand your dog.
What to Watch For
If you feel your dog isn't acting correct then contact a veterinarian for consultation because only you will know if your dog isn't behaving how they normally should."
