Take the chain and collar off its neck.
She's too young for such. Get a cage instead.

Good morning guys
So I noticed something about cash she doesn’t like the sun she always want to stay in a cool environment she cried all through the night because she was lonely(puppies are annoying)
This morning I noticed she her excitement when I loosed her chain and fed her she went straight to the tap and layed on the wet floor
Is it normal for Caucasians to like getting wet?

dogs should be dewormed every two weeks until they are 3months old then you can switch to monthly.
deworming should be done regularly especially when the dog eats meat and stays outside a lot.

that's very normal for caucs, mine does it a lot.
they aren't built for hot weather so keep them out of it.
I even had to get a heap of sand and keep under shade to cool mine off, I just pour water on the sand and he happily snuggles in it.
I guess it's because of their double layered coat, if you are planning to build a kennel for cash, I suggest you tile the floor so she can cool off on it.
my caucs kennel is tiled and he also has his sand spot, i just pour water on them regularly to keep them cool so he always has a place to stay when the sun is hot.
as for the crying at night, she'll get over it in a couple of days, she just isn't used to being alone.

Thanks bro
I have a kennel already and it’s tiled very airy but I haven’t kept her there because I’ve had past experiences with lice and ticks on My last gsd it was a terrible one I still see some lice on the walls of the kennel so I’m scared because I don’t have strength to battle that for cash
Please any preventative measures to take?

use this chemical for prevention and treatment of ticks and fleas
mix 4ml of it with one liter of water and clean the kennel, leave it for some time then rinse it off
don't use the chemical on her or allow her anywhere near it, it's very poisonous and could kill her. make sure she's far away from it anytime you want to use it.

when she's older(4 months) you can mix it in her bath water....also remember to prevent her from drinking it. bath her with ordinary water and shampoo first then pour water mixed with this chemical on her, after like 5mins rinse it off.
I got it for #1800 in port Harcourt and it lasts for about 2-3 months
it is economical and it works, my dog has never had ticks or fleas since I started using it.
I was using fionil spray before but as my dog's fur got thicker, it became harder to use. I prefer chemicals I can mix in water now at least I'm sure it's reaching the dog's skin.
if you can be careful enough to keep her from accidentally drinking it, this is the best option for you... smiley

Thank you
Someone also told me it’s hard for Caucasians to get ticks because of their thick fur
Re: My First Caucasian Dog by Lloydthesaint: 9:12pm On Feb 06, 2019
Hello guys
Thanks to you all that has and will be helping me in this lovely journey I’m embarking on with cash my bitch (And to all those wae view and no comment I salute you too it will be well with us all lol)
Today I tried training cash today basic come and sit routine(remember I told you I have last experiences with gsd’s) cash is a little slow I don’t know if it’s because she eats too much and she’s fat or that’s how Caucasians are I haven’t found her command spot yet she didn’t react to my whistling or snaps like my previous dogs did but I’d keep trying sha
Please any advice on basic drills for Caucasians

common misconception.... they get ticks and fleas but it's harder for you to see them.
most times the dog will just be scratching and you will think it's nothing until the thing spreads.
before I started using that chemical on mine, I noticed he was always scratching but I thought it was normal until I removed like 15 maggots from his skin.
I still don't know where he got them from, they were everywhere under his fur, even his head too.
I bath and groom him regularly so I was confident that he was fine until my eyes where opened. the next day, I hurriedly rushed to the vet and got the chemical.
the best thing is to prevent all those things because you won't notice them on time because of their fur

Caucasians aren't as unintelligent as some people think, they are just really stubborn and strong willed.
a gsd will try to please it's master but a cauc will try to do what it wants first and hopes it's master will be okay with it
she might understand you but she might just not be willing to obey. don't train her for too long at a time or she will get bored and loose focus.
some tricks require a more mature dog to do so don't rush her, just start with the basics.
I always train my dog when he is hungry so he gives me his full attention. just get a snack she loves and make her work for it.
my dog has to sit, jump and shake me beforhe gets his snacks, it's a routine I do everyday so now he's used to it and he also obeys without snacks.
when you have used the snacks to get her to learn the commands, start replacing the snacks with attention and belly rubs or whatever your dog enjoys, the reason for this is to prevent the dog from getting too used to getting snacks.
don't make the sessions frustrating for you or your dog, keep the sessions short and fun so your dog will be eager to learn more. for now, training shouldn't last up to 5 mins

If you actually imported that dog...
You were scammed.Hard.There is corruption everywhere not only Nigeria.That dog isn't pure and I have seen a lot of Nigerian dogs better than it.It can also be an inferior quality Caucasian.Russians scam a lot of Nigerians because the Nigerians believe the imported one is fool proof.Even our 'kangals'.Aksaaray(another turkish dog) mixes.Yet you pay the same amount for a kangal.A lot of people import 'kangals','Tibetan mastiffs' and 'Caucasians' thinking they are pure not knowing they have been scammed.As funny as it sounds the safest place to get good Caucasians is in Nigeria. At least you can see the dog first.
Reason this,if a white man gives you money to get a good ekuke (he doesn't know have experience on them) will you stress yourself looking for the best you can find knowing he wont tell the difference cos its imporyed and you probably won't ever see him again?
