Such a pet can be made to families with children, other four-fingered cats, dogs, mice, and the presence of birds in the house will not interfere. It costs nothing for a dog to adapt to the vital pace of people and other members of the collective; it is a hard and intelligent dog.

Particular attention should be paid to the pet during walking, you should not allow the beaver to communicate with larger relatives, as a bulldog, shepherd or other dimensional dog may step on the baby and not even notice.

Nurture and training beaver york

Beavers have always lived side by side with a man and their main task is to be companions, that is, to live in a family without causing trouble. This is not a working dog, not a hunter, not a security guard, so he does not need to receive any specialized knowledge.

Even a tiny, but ill-mannered terrier can harm, do minor dirty tricks and spoil the mood. And experts are confident that the bad behavior of York is a 100% owner’s mistake.

The baby should be taught from an early age to the collar, he should know his place and eat where he should be. Beavers are walking as soon as the crumb rushes about in search of a place, he needs to be taken outside or put on a diaper, a rag. It is possible to punish for “small groups” and “puddles” only if the owner caught the pet, as they say, “red-handed”, otherwise, the puppy will not be able to understand why he got the scolding.

It is important that the dog has learned the "fu" command, this makes it possible to avoid various troubles - eating garbage on the street, spoiling things and other situations. Beavers willingly respond to training - next to the owner, they are happy to do anything.

But such a pet is very sensitive to changes in the mood of the owner - nervousness, anger, aggression and other negative emotions, he will definitely notice and hasten to retire. Praise, affection and sweets - that is what contributes to fruitful learning.

You shouldn't give your pet a descent if it starts to stubborn - this little dodger will surely test the ground, will the owner allow him to shirk and can the team be executed, for example, not from the first, but second, third, or even the fifth time.

Beavers are playful, inquisitive doggies, so you definitely need to teach his team “come to me!” So ​​that he will not be too distracted while walking.

• Every day the dog needs to comb the hair with a massage brush, and to collect a long bang in the tail;
• teeth are cleaned every 3-4 days using a special brush that is put on the finger and toothpaste designed for dogs;
