I was supposed to get Coco diamond puppy food(3kg) yesterday and some pedigree puppy food too but I couldn't get the diamond because it was not readily available so I opted for binggo puppy(5kg). Well, it turned out to be a not so good decision, Coco ate a mixture of binggo, pedigree and scubia fish pretty well yesterday afternoon, fed on same in the evening. I let her in the house that night, after a while I noticed her activity level dropped, her stomach was making the sound of someone with hiccups then suddenly she threw up. Cleaned it up, showed her some love and waited for 10pm to reach so I can take her to her own space which I did. Woke up 6 this morning to let her out as usual and I found out she threw twice, the vomit was many this time around unlike the one inside the house. Her poop this morning was watery but not smelly and her activity level is still low, looking dull Taking her back to just pedigree and other things until I get her diamond puppy... Binggo is not good for her because all these happened after I fed her binggo yesterday.

Lol, she finally caught the toy(prey) after some few minutes of chasing. We don't play it for too long because she's still too young to be running around and jumping.
|
Homemade flirt pole for Coco, she loves it and can chase all day long.

Braintrain:K |
I went to the market this morning to get some cow meat and liver for Coco.. I gave her a little portion of the liver raw, she was slow in eating it compared to when I gave her raw chicken head.
|
space9880:Sapele. Lol! |
Braintrain:For real? I wasn't the one who got her though, it was a gift to my bro from his colleague at work but na me be the handler sha. She dey constitute sha, everything na tug for her eyes. The mouthing part is what annoys me most, she bites down hard but it doesn't break the skin. Working on correcting it sha while deep down I hope she outgrows it. |
Just got this from a pet shop, noticed Coco has been itching, licking and using her teeth on her skin for some time now. Sapele/Warri road is too bad, so going to ShopRite is cancelled until further notice.

There was this cheap shampoo I bought for 6h that I was using to bath Coco, I honestly don't know if it was the shampoo or something else but I noticed her coat colour started fading and she was shedding a lot. I stopped using the shampoo immediately I noticed it and that was when I introduced raw egg and pedigree puppy can food to her diet, she was formerly on booster all life stages and since then her coat is returning to normal and there was a drastic reduction in shedding. The shampoo looked like those dish washing soap, same colour, same texture but different smell. The pedigree food is finished, so this is just a make shift food for Coco pending when I travel down to ShopRite Warri to get some, dem dey cheat us for the price here. Well, the food consist of boiled rice, chicken, chicken head, chicken intestine, fried fish and one raw egg.

Dreazy23:So sorry for Roxy's death, it's not always an easy thing to control what our dogs eat off the ground. I sincerely hope you and Rex help each other get over this loss. |
So yesterday night at about 10pm when I went to lock up Coco in her kennel, I caught her eating a dead bird. There is a big possibility that she's eating dead lizard and rat too since she was able to eat the dead bird comfortably. I hope she doesn't get infected by bacteria sha. I usually lock her up in her kennel 10pm and release at 6am, she gets 3hrs of freedom from that time(eat, train, play, stroll around the compound and outside compound viewing). I put her back in at 9am then release again at 12 noon, another 3hrs of freedom sometimes 2hrs or 1hr(eat, play) because people might be busy in the compound during that time and I don't want her disturbing them, so most times I put her back in during the day by 2pm. Her last freedom for the day comes around 5pm(a lot of play, train, eat and unrestricted access to all parts of the compound) till 10pm before she goes back in. We let her in the house sometimes, once she starts constituting, outside straight. |
So yesterday I was sitting close to Coco after a little play session I had with her, after sometime she went for my hand(obviously mouthing) and I yelped and withdrew my hand slowly, she then immediately started barking at me, I was like why is she barking at me, I ignored her and remained calm. After she stopped I tried walking away, na once she just position for my front like you go nowhere today bros, we must continue this play. I faked her and she ran away, turned around and charged at me, I did same again and she repeated same. So I decided to walk away again and this time she let me go. In my mind so this dog dey really charge for me o. |
Coco's breakfast; a mixture of Pedigree puppy can food Mashed sweet potatoes Chicken heads(partially deboned) Raw egg(One) I add the raw egg to her meal just once a day.

agboedeh:Noted. |
agboedeh:It's cooked oh! I dey pieces am ddey remove some kind bones sha that looks like the chicken skull and the beak too but not all |
agboedeh:Yes, same thing most people said even the vet that administered her first shot. Thanks |
Coco turns 3 months old tomorrow, those things(fish, egg and plain rice) I said she does not like she loves them now. I started feeding her pedigree puppy canned food(growth and protection) this week and I intend getting diamond puppy dry food to be mixing it, then adding chicken heads occasionally. She's doing good on her obedience training but gets distracted easily probably because she's still a puppy. Her socialisation has been going well, since she's still too young to go out for walks what I do is take her outside our compound every morning around 6:30, we stay and roam about there. She gets to see people, okada, cars, turkey, goat and other dogs passing. At the beginning, she was scared of the turkey o, immediately she sees the turkey she backs up but all the ones she go wan follow. Coco dey constitute sha, picks and chews almost anything from the ground, she's still mouths a lot and once she's somewhere you don't want her to be, you call her in order to get her to leave that place then she looks at you and go back to what she was doing, immediately she sees you coming towards her she go just take off. My biggest problem is that I still don't know how much to feed her, she eats 3× a day. What I do is one pedigree can food per day mixed with a little plain rice(per meal) and 5 chicken heads(per meal) sometimes I add fried fish or boiled meat or proper chicken to it. Whether I dey underfeed or overfeed I nor know. Coco hates taking her bath! And oh she chews on her leash a lot, I don watch youtube vids to correct this behaviour, no level. I don't know if prong collar will be able to correct it.

Coco most times likes to lie somewhere where there is water or somewhere that is damp even when the weather is cold.... Is it a good thing or bad thing? Any idea vincentjk |
iamJ:I swear.
|
vincentjk:Noted. |
TissuePaper:Yes, he still does! |
vincentjk:Yes, thanks. The vet that came to administer the first shot of distemper said she's a gsd mixed with caucasian but the caucasian gene is more pronounced. |
