Time Spent

When taking care of your Chow Chow, proper feeding habits are of the utmost importance. If you want to keep your dog healthy, you shouldn't feed it within an hour of participating in strenuous exercise, since this increases the likelihood that your dog could get bloat.

It's also important to keep in mind that canines often need to go outside soon after eating. One brilliant strategy to encourage obedience and good behavior in your growing Chow Chow is to use their normal food as training treats in between meals.

Instead of one substantial meal, Chow Chows should be fed twice a day. This is crucial in avoiding the bloating and discomfort that may result from eating too much. It is advised that you give your Chow Chow no more than four cups of food each day, split between one and two meals.

Consider giving your dog vitamin and mineral supplements to fill up any nutritional gaps in their diet. Brewer's yeast is rich in the B-complex, as well as vitamins A, D, E, and folic acid, all of which are water-soluble vitamins.

Your Chow Chow's grooming requirements should also not be overlooked. Whether your dog has a rough or smooth coat, it still has to be washed and brushed on a regular basis.

This refined breed may go anywhere from a week to a month without bathing, depending on their needs and lifestyle.

Wet or dry dog food that is nutritionally complete and balanced is ideal for Chows. Particularly during their first year of life, Chow Chow pups need puppy chow to ensure they get enough of the right kinds of nutrients for healthy growth and development.

A regular feeding routine may be established as your Chow Chow gets older. Depending on your schedule, this may entail serving breakfast at 7 a.m. and supper at 5 p.m. Avoiding bloat requires keeping a reasonable time frame between meals and physical activity. Your dog will appreciate it if you stick to the standard practice of giving them a toilet break after each meal.
