    Generally, dog dealers will give the dog hormones to make the dog very lively.

    When you buy a dog again, reach a consensus with the seller, let him provide test strips to monitor parvo and canine plague, and test it before buying. Colleagues observe whether the dog's tongue is pink, whether the eyes are congested with blood and whether there is eye feces, whether the nose is moist, what is the temperature of the ears, whether there is a very disgusting smell on the body, etc.

    In fact, the safest thing is to go to the hospital with the seller for a check-up, and it doesn't cost much. At most, more than a hundred, for the sake of the future, don't save this money. If you're healthy, take it home.

    Personally, it is recommended to buy a dog for more than three months, it is not easy to get sick, and the mortality rate is a little smaller, and the dog dealers say that they are lying to you about the vaccine or something, so they will not fight it, and they must pay attention to the vaccine after buying it back.

    Hope these are helpful to you

    "Dog of the week" refers to the fact that dogs are easy to get infected due to factors such as poor sanitary conditions and weak physique of newborn dogs in many early circulation links such as feeding and transportation before they flow into the market for trading. The lifespan of such a dog is generally about 1 week, that is, when you can buy it home for a few days, the dog will get sick and die in about 1 week. And dog friends call this kind of dog "Dog of the Week".

    To identify a dog, you must mainly judge from the dog's health status. To put it simply, you need to make sure that the dog you buy home is absolutely healthy. Therefore, when buying a pet dog, you must comprehensively examine whether the puppy is healthy.

    Normally, a healthy puppy should have a pair of large, bright and clear eyes. His eyes are clean and free of unusual secretions, and he is very responsive to his surroundings. A healthy dog should be very lively and cute, with clean ears, no mouth, and a very clean body.

    The coat should also be supple and elastic.

    In addition, to judge whether a dog is healthy, it is also necessary to observe its diet to see if it has picky eating, anorexia, and loss of appetite. Note that a growing puppy is particularly fond of food, so a healthy dog should be very hungry.

    It is worth noting that a healthy dog should also have a very good spirit, be active when playing, and sleep when resting. At the same time, puppies should be vaccinated after normal weaning, so when buying puppies home, it is best to buy healthy dogs that have been successfully weaned and have passed the vaccination observation period.
