Feeding…
The amount of feeds your dog consumes every day depends on their metabolism, size, the levels of activity, and age. However, it is recommendable that you feed them 1-1.5 cups of high-quality dry food every day.
This food should be divided into two and given at different time intervals perhaps one half in the morning and the other in the evening.

Grooming should start when they are young.

Health…
Always check for any skin lesion, scabs, flaky skin, bare spots, and any signs of infections.
