names for golden retriever puppy male
Sponsor Meet Buddy Buddy was originally dubbed "Toothless" by his shelter friends when he landed there as a stray. Buddy must have had quite the past before finding us. His teeth have undergone some serious wear and tear, and are almost all worn down to flat surfaces. Oh, if he could just tell us his story! But don't worry about Buddy. He's able to eat just fine and shows no lasting issues resulting from this unfortunate part of his history. Buddy is inexperienced and shy with children, so he will do best in a home without them. He should not go to a home with cats or other dogs. He's enjoying all the affection and playtime he can get from his foster humans! Buddy is not interested in spending time with other dogs, but he's happy to ignore them if they'll ignore him. Buddy even showed how far he's come since his shelter days on a recent walk when a neighbor's loose dog began racing straight for him and his foster mom. That's always a scary moment for any dog owner. But he handled himself perfectly. He sat right next to her and kept his cool while she dealt with the whole situation. Buddy also shows off his gentlemanly self during his vet visits, where he's calm and polite to his caretakers. Buddy's ideal home is a quiet one where he's the only dog to a forever human who will take him for long walks and leafy hikes to enjoy all that his delightful second chance at life has to offer. If you think Buddy might be the one for you, please apply to adopt!

Let us provide you with a Labradoodle puppy and a forever friend. About Us The start! Tonia LeFrancois owner of Triangle Labradoodles started this dream with family in mind! Her son was born with several allergies that would keep him from having a puppy. Tonia feels that every little childs life is not complete with out a puppy. After months of research we found the Australian labradoodle to be the best fit for us. With the help of Jenny Blume at Swinging gate kennels we provided our family a loving female named Aspen. Aspen stole every heart in the family and know her son has his best friend! Now we would like to offer that option to others so they too can have a dog in their family. This is why here at Triangle Labradoodles we want to provide quality pets to other familes that need a best friend. With this in mind all puppies here at Triangle labradoodles are raised in our home with 3 children as part of our family so they will fit in well with yours. Staying true to the vision of those who founded this incredible breed is an important element of our breeding philosophy. A proud member of the Australian Labradoodle Club of America, it is our goal to provide the most loving environment possible for our puppies. We will only work with the best breeders available to provide the highest quality and healthiest doodles around. We will strive for a low volume high quality approach for producing puppies. We are not a kennel and all puppies are raised in our home as part of the family. The Australian Labradoodle is different from all other labradoodles. Dogs from this cross typically were bred to each other over future generations, whereby the Australian dogs are also know as "Multi-generational" Labradoodles. The resulting labradoodles subsequently have been bred to each other, continuing the multi-generational tradition. Even when the other types of Labradoodles are bred on for generations, the result is not an Australian Labradoodle, as the attributes of the infused breeds were not included in their ancestry. The Australian Labradoodle Club of America was founded exclusively to foster and protect the original Australian Labradoodles that have come directly from Tegan Park and Rutland Manor breeding stock, or their offspring. Our mission is to maintain and improve the quality and soundness of the Australian Labradoodles, and to carefully monitor the further development of the breed. All member breeders are carefully screened to help ensure the future of the Australian Labradoodle. Our member breeders must breed to the highest standards. We have Breeder Mentors to assist member breeders and to help new breeders get off to a good start. The goal was to join with breeders across America in the development of a pure breed dog and to unite these breeding programs for one common cause, the preservation of the Authentic Australian Labradoodle. Our breed is in its final stage and is renowned for its amazing traits and has proven to be consistent and reliable. Its intuitive nature, uncanny ability to sense and in some cases self teach the art of being a medical alert dog, the direct eye to eye contact and their desire to please makes them one of the most trainable dogs in America. This breed is hypoallergenic, non shedding and is one of the most sought after dogs in America. Our goal is to protect and improve the breed health as we move towards pure breed status. Contact Us. Sweetly Retired Stormie G. We take so much pride in our doodles. They are the funniest, smartest, cutest, little guys, so much personality. Bred for their wonderful temperament, intuitive nature and overall character; they are non-shedding and don't carry doggie odors. They undergo temperament testing and a host of socialization opportunities are provided as grands come and go, neighbors drop by for cuddles, kitchen noises, loud televisions, children running about, birds singing and dogs barking; extra cuddles, visits by the other doodle family members and on and on. All of our dogs live here in the house with us. Guardian puppies live with their own loving families but visit often. Mama doodles are whelped here and baby doodles are appropriately exposed to a busy family lifestyle. All of our doodles receive the best in health care, as puppies themselves, before breeding, during and after, because we quite simply just love them to pieces and they deserve it. They have a team of vets, health testing, repoduction management, attend NC State Therinology clinic for ultrasounds, progesterone testing, cardiac testing, etc. So if you see a tear drop or two as you close the door, know that it is the love that has been there before. Sweet puppy of mine you'll always be, heartbreak it is to say goodbye to thee, know that my prayers are with you and your new family. Blessings sweet puppy.We wanted a well-bred puppy, that would be a healthy, happy, member of our family. Fisher has exceeded our expectations.Not only did she ensure an excellent pedigree, she took the utmost care of the pups, after they were born. Thanks to her socialization, the beginning of crate and house training, and tons of love, Fisher acclimated to our home and family right away. We got a steady stream of videos and pictures, as well as results from temperament testing. We knew him before we ever brought him home and she even had us send items that had our scent, to familiarize him with us! Communication was open and encouraged. The whole process was something we'll always treasure. Labradoodles are great dogs and Lake Blue is a great breeder, worthy of these pups. Willa's litter Stormie's litter. View fullsize Both our chocolate Labradoodle and our Poodle are beautiful dogs with excellent temperaments. They are our family pets. Because we begin with a Labradoodle and a Poodle, rather than a Lab and a Poodle, our puppies are much more likely to have the non-shedding Poodle coat. A F1b Labradoodle has been back-crossed to a poodle in an effort to insure a non-shedding coat. Even though most f1b Labradoodles shed very little or not all, it is impossible to guarantee that any dog even doodles or purebred poodles will not shed at all. Hypo- means less hypothermia is having a lower than normal body temperature. No dog can be said to be completely non-allergenic. Studies have shown that doodles are less likely to cause allergies, particularly f1b doodles. The ideal is to keep as much of the Lab head shape and super-friendly personality as possible while getting the non-shedding Poodle coat as well as the dignified, less vocal characteristics of the Poodle. Our Labradoodle methodology is quite simple. First, we get quality dogs. This is why we wanted to have pick of the litter for our Labradoodle and our Poodle and why we only obtained puppies from reputable breeders that we knew we could trust. Second, we try to treat our dogs Labradoodle and Poodle well. We feed our Labradoodle and Poodle high quality food with plenty of protein, and give them wonderful socialization and opportunities for exercise. We have 12 acres along the Enoree River with trails, additional property next to a Greenville state park, and property on Lake Hartwell giving us the opportunity to take the dogs kayaking. We recognize the importance of socializing young Labradoodle puppies so they will not be fearful as they mature. Our Labradoodle puppies have lots of opportunities to play with our children, and water games are definitely on top of the list. Labradoodles love the water and so do my kids, as you can see below. Third, we try to find appropriate families for our Chocolate Labradoodle puppies. To learn more about our process, check out this resource that gives a step-by-step guide between the application to receiving your puppy!

Even though chocolate is the most desirable color, we sometimes have puppies of other colors even occasional merles. These puppies, will of course, also make excellent pets. These non-chocolate Labradoodle puppies are also available to great families, but we know that Chocolate Labradoodles are the most desirable. The Labrador Retriever has a short coat that sheds. By breeding the F1 Labradoodle back to an unrelated Poodle, the chances of getting the highly desirable non-shedding Poodle coat increase exponentially. Some F1B Labradoodles are bred back another time to a Poodle in an effort to guarantee a Poodle coat. If high quality dogs are chosen to breed that have the head shape of a Labrador Retriever it is possible to get a puppy that is very similar in many ways to a Labrador, but has the beautiful non-shedding Poodle coat. Both Labrador Retrievers and Poodles are highly intelligent dogs, helping Labradoodles excel in smarts, train-ability, and a general desire to always please their owner.

I have no health issues and am neutered and microchipped. I get along with other dogs. I currently live with another one in my foster home and have had no issues meeting dogs out and about. I do need to be fed separately from other pets though. You see.I eat very fast and then have a tendency to go looking for more food elsewhere. Only older human children in the home as well, due to my rough play and demonstration of some resource guarding. I am still a puppy so I am very energetic and will require a lot of exercise. I play with toys on my own and run zoomies in the yard but would love daily walks and a buddy human or dog to play with in my new home. Apartment living is not really for me as I do bark at dogs on TV and people passing by. I also will need a forever home with a fenced yard as I am very curious and quite the wild man who loves to run and run and run! I am not the best on leash either…I definitely need more work in this area. I am a quick study…since being in my foster home, I have learned to sit for my food bowl, come when called, and go into my crate easily for a treat. Since I am still a puppy, I will require frequent potty outings. I just started going to the door to let my foster mom know I need to do my business, and I poop first thing in the morning and after my meals. I will need continued consistency and work on my potty training but I know I will get there…. I aim to please! Someone who is home pretty frequently would be great, too, until I need less potty breaks. I am a pretty busy guy but once I settle down, I will cuddle and hug my people. I love all toys, but even indestructible ones are easy for me to destroy fairly quickly. Kongs seem to work pretty well for me. I am a smart, happy guy who came from a rough start but am looking forward to finding a family who will have enough time and patience to give me the consistent love and training that I need.
At this shelter, Rex suffered seizures, which are now well controlled with medication. Rex also suffered from irritable bowel syndrome a very messy condition , which requires prescription food and medication in order to be completely managed. The treatment and maintenance of these two chronic conditions meant Rex was unlikely to thrive in a shelter environment, but the rescue network saw that this could be a happy dog and connected him with Kingston Animal Rescue. At times, he could not move them properly, they would seize up, and he would drag his back feet until they were bloody or be almost immobile. The amazing animal loving community came together to help get Rex more care, so he went for a specialist visit to Ottawa. This meant the padding between two of his lower, spinal vertebrae was misplaced and being pinched. In early March, Rex had surgery to correct the compression. Following a successful surgery, he underwent rehabilitation to regain his strength and mobility; he was so lucky to find himself in a home dedicated to getting him back on his feet. Rex stabilized, his fosters went above and beyond to see him through each and every issue, which included a thyroid condition and aggressive arthritis. His medical regime requires attentiveness, and symptoms of different conditions will emerge from time to time, but his seizures, irritable bowel disease, pain, and thyroid condition have all found points of relative resolution. Rex medically had stabilized, so his move out to the country in the spring of was a chance for his personality to blossom. Rex has become more patient, engaging and has grown into a great companion in his long-term foster home. He plays with other dogs, diligently watches their chickens, and herds their daughter. Rex is almost never without a ball in his mouth and keeps up with the pack as they rush down to a nearby pond, the almost daily swim has been helpful for regaining mobility. Rex lives a wonderful, shepherd like life. Frosty is a little shy at first, but he does get along with people of all ages as well as other dogs and even cats! Frosty loves the companionship of other dogs and learns a lot from them. Frosty is an absolute love-bug. He is a playful pup who loves running around the back yard, chasing tennis balls, shaking and tossing his squeaky toys, and chewing frozen marrow bones. He loves to lay at your feet at night while you watch TV or snuggle in bed with you if allowed. He will follow you everywhere and lay wherever you are. He walks very well on a leash using a harness. Frosty spent his early life on the end of a chain and would like his new home to have a fenced yard so he can be free to get the puppy zoomies and chase balls! Frosty has already learned many commands and has even had some foundation training in agility. Frosty is a very sweet boy who just worships his people. Frosty is now searching for an active family of his very own. Is there room in your heart and home for a loving, active boy like Frosty? Echo Dogs fosters dogs in many states. Transportation for the adopted dog IS available. Remember, we are an all-volunteer foster rescue organization - we DO NOT have a physical shelter to visit. This would be the responsibility of the adopter at their own expense. To complete an online application: Click here. The Application can be found at the Adoption drop-down menu on the navigation bar above or by clicking here: Echo Dogs Application Form The application is sent electronically to our processing team, where references are checked. Yes, we really do call your references! The information provided to us by your references is kept strictly confidential. We believe that we get honest information by assuring references that we will not disclose to anyone the content of our conversations. You should call your references to let them know that they may be contacted by Echo Dogs. Occasionally, we have encountered some references, such as veterinarians, who are reluctant to speak with us unless they have your permission. It is easier for all of us if you let them know to expect our call. No application can be approved without veterinary and personal references. Either an Echo Dogs volunteer or someone who has agreed to help us usually another rescue group or animal shelter volunteer will contact you to set up the home visit. We will contact you to let you know who will be working with you to find a mutually-convenient time for conducting the home visit. Home visits are not scary!! This is often the most nerve-wracking part of our application approval process -- but it needn't be. The home visit is designed to accomplish three main goals: 1. To verify that the information provided on the application is true and accurate; 2. To determine whether the home has the ability to provide a safe, loving environment for a dog through Echo Dogs; and 3. To help determine the personality of the dog that would best suit the home and family. However, not every dog is appropriate for every home. We will work with you to find the dog that is best suited for your home, family and lifestyle. We want you to get a dog that will enrich your life and delight you and we want each one of our dogs to have a home and family that thinks he or she is the absolute best dog on the planet. Our Adoption Coordinator takes over at this point in the process. She will look at your application and home visit report and will send your application to the foster home that has a dog she thinks you might be interested in. The foster home will either call or e-mail you with some information about the dog. You should ask as many questions as you feel necessary to understand whether this dog is the "one" for you. If you don't think one sounds just right, just let the foster home or the Adoption Coordinator know and we will look for a different dog. If you can tell us why a particular dog didn't appeal to you, it will help us look at other dogs in our program that might be more suitable. Please do not feel pressured to adopt any dog that you aren't absolutely comfortable about adopting! Each of us loves our foster dogs, but we realize that he or she might not be the right dog for every family or home. We do not feel offended or hurt if you decide you would rather adopt a dog other than our personal foster dog. After all, our goal is to get our foster dog into a home where she or he will be truly treasured. Depending on the distances involved, we have various options available, which we can discuss prior to finalize the adoption. Bear in mind, that the transportation, depending on the distances involved, the speed with which you want to receive the dog and sometimes just plain luck, may involve some additional expense and almost always require you to drive some distance to pick up the dog. We keep each of our dogs on Heartgard or Interceptor and Frontline Plus while in foster care. Many of our dogs have received considerably more medical treatment than the above, depending on what they need when they arrive into foster care. If a dog has a chronic condition that is diagnosed while in our care, we will inform you of the diagnosis and the course of treatment that the dog has been receiving while in our care. Just ask!
Final Thoughts Why is hydration important? Hydration is one of the most crucial factors in the health of a German Shepherd. When a German Shepherd loses more fluid than it is taking in, it will start to dehydrate. German Shepherds rely on hydration through water and food, in the same way, that other mammals do. This hydration allows their body to retain normal function, such as lubricating joints and regulating the temperature of the body. A German Shepherd will naturally lose water during the day from things such as panting, urinating and exercise. Keeping your GSD well hydrated will prevent serious health complications, alongside providing other benefits. The water helps in maintaining normal bodily functions, which includes the digestive system. If a GSD is not receiving enough water then the ability for food to be digested fully is diminished, which can result in food not being broken down properly. This can then result in your Shepherd becoming deficient in essential nutrients and causing a further knock-on affect to the body. Removing waste toxins in the body It goes without saying than any waste toxins within the body need to be removed as soon as possible, through urination and defecation. The toxins themselves are not immediately harmful to the body, provided they are removed accordingly before they become too highly concentrated. These toxins are filtered from the kidneys and using water are excreted from the body, which is aided by ensuring your German Shepherd is well hydrated. This is often the case when it comes to food and water too, as a dog will typically have a behaviour pattern they follow. This behavioural shift could come in the form of increasing the amount of water they drink, drinking less water, or even no water at all. How much water should an adult German Shepherd Drink? The primary deciding factor for the amount of water that a dog requires per day is its weight. Under the assumption that the dog is in a healthy condition, the dog will typically require an estimated 1 oz of water intake per pound of body weight, each day. It will also differ between male and female dogs due to the difference in the average body weights between the two genders. Therefore, a male German Shepherd weighing in between 66 — 88lbs, would require between 66 — 88 oz of water intake per day to maintain normal function. In comparison, a female German Shepherd weighing in between 48 — 70lbs, would require 48 — 70 oz of water intake per day to maintain normal function. However, this is a rule of thumb and should be followed with caution. How much water should a puppy be drinking? Whilst you would expect a young German Shepherd puppy to drink far less than their adult counterpart, you would actually be surprised to hear that they often require more. However, as they are eventually weaned off of the milk, they will require a source of water and solid food, which needs to be provided in accordance to their weight and activity levels. Your young German Shepherd puppy requires regular hydration in the form of one-half cup of water during each two-hour period of the day. As the German Shepherd puppies continue to grow in size and weight their water intake will too. This can vary from 0. Frequently weighing the puppies will help to ensure you are always providing the right balance of both food and water for them and keep them in good health. How much water should a German Shepherd Drink? Whilst the required water intake of a German Shepherd will primarily be based upon their body weight, there are other factors to consider that can also contribute to increased water consumption. If your property is climate controlled then this may not be as much of a concern whilst indoors, however you will still need to consider the climate when taking your dog for regular exercise. The Weather Weather changes will result in you taking appropriate action based upon the varying conditions each day. Therefore, if the weather is sunny and warm you will need to consider areas of shade and additional water for your German Shepherd to be comfortable and remain hydrated. Diet If your German Shepherd is fed on a dry food diet then a continuously available water supply is strongly recommended, especially during feeding times. As your dog will not be receiving any water from the food itself and will, therefore, require an alternative source of water in order to stay well hydrated. Further information will follow below to discuss the benefits of water food in comparison to dry dog food. New or existing health conditions If your German Shepherd has any new or existing health conditions, then this could impact their water intake and should be accounted for. These conditions could include Kidney disease and Diabetes, in which an excessive amount of water is lost and must be replenished accordingly. It is therefore important to monitor for any changes in drinking behavior that could indicate a significant cause for concern. If you are taking your German Shepherd for walks, playing catch or other physical activities then it is perfectly normal for more water to be consumed during and after these activities. German Shepherds are a naturally active breed of dog and therefore may consume more water than you expect, if you have been accustomed to another breed of dog for example. Therefore, it is important to keep all of these factors into consideration and determine what their habits are and identify any changes you have noticed. How to check for dehydration? Dehydration is a serious concern for all dogs, so knowing the symptoms of dehydration can help you to tackle the problem before it causes serious health concerns. Water is an important part of the overall metabolic process, which includes digestion, brain activity, blood flow, and breathing, as well as kidney and liver function. It also helps young dogs grow big and strong. Recommended Videos And, since a dog cools by panting, drinking water is essential for replacing the moisture that evaporates from their tongues, nasal passages, and lungs during the process. Lastly, a well-hydrated dog has a moist nose, which aids in their ability to smell. One of the best ways to make sure your puppy is drinking enough water is to set up a schedule. Instead of leaving a bowl out for them to drink at will, ration their intake. Every few hours, measure the appropriate amount of water into their drinking bowl and call your puppy. Encourage your pup to drink the water, and when they do, reward them with praise and a few minutes of playtime. When you add potty training to the mix, you need to be mindful of a few other factors. First, you want to reduce water intake at night since the goal is to work your pup up to a full 8 hours of sleep. Make sure they get a drink after the evening walk, say half an hour to an hour following a meal. Then put the bowl away for the night. This works especially well if you otherwise confirm that Fido has had enough liquid during the day. Overheating and illnesses, especially those that include vomiting, diarrhea, and fever, put puppies at risk of dehydration. Chewing on ice cubes adds an element of fun while it aids in hydration. Flavor drinking water with chicken or beef broth. Put a treat at the bottom of the bowl. Overhydration If it seems your puppy is drinking too much water, pay attention. Dogs, and puppies, in particular, are super curious. Your little buddy may just be playing in the water bowl, which is more of a behavioral issue than a medical problem. But if you think your puppy is doing more drinking than playing, they may have an underlying medical issue that needs to be addressed immediately. Symptoms of overhydration include:. When do puppies start drinking water? Before you even bring your puppy home , they will have already been introduced to to drinking water. Puppies start drinking water at around 3 - 4 weeks of age, at the same time they switch from milk to solid food and once their teeth have started to grow. How much water should a puppy drink? As a general rule of thumb, a puppy needs approximately 30ml 1oz of water per 0. However, the exact amount of water needed to keep them happy and healthy will vary, as each and every puppy is wonderfully unique. As a first time dog owner, you might be wondering how long a puppy can go without water, in which case the below information can help. Do puppies need water at night? Unless your puppy is unwell or suffering from a medical condition, you should avoid leaving water out for them at night. Most puppies over the age of 12 weeks can go without water for 8 hours, but it's inevitable that you may wake up to a mess every now and then. Young dogs under 12 weeks are not able to hold their bladder for too long, and up until around 9 months old they're likely to need the toilet with 10 - 30 minutes of having a drink. By stopping water intake before bedtime, you limit the number of night time wake up calls and decrease the chances of any accidents occurring. This is primarily the case during toilet training, before a puppy becomes a dog and is still learning the ropes. Over time, your puppy will start to settle and sleep through the night, and when this happens, you won't need to remove their water anymore. Refilling their bowl with fresh water can also encourage healthy puppy hydration. Reward them when they drink, using treats or positive praise. Grab some ice cubes - Whether you drop them in their water bowl, or give them a cube to suck on and chew, this can be a great way to get more water in them without forcing them to drink from their bowl. You could also add a little water or wet food to their dry kibble, or switch out some of their treats with high water content foods like cucumber or watermelon, or even dog ice lollies if you notice your dog wont drink water but will eat. Start by adding warm water to their dry food. This will create a soup like consistency and give them a chance to slurp up the water as they eat, familiarising them with the idea of drinking liquid from a bowl. Use a shallow dish as a puppy water bowl. Praise them when they drink. Each time they go for a sip, reward them with praise so they know this is desirable behaviour. Entice them with ice or taste. My puppy is drinking a lot of water, should I be concerned? Worried your puppy or dog drinking more than usual? This is a natural concern for all dog owners, which is why it's so important to familiarise yourself with what seems normal for your dog. Remember that each dog is unique, but if you notice anything out of the ordinary, you should always contact your vet for advice. Puppies are very susceptible to change, so a simple act of switching their food or increasing their exercise can prompt them to drink more water. Typically this should settle back down in time, but if you notice continued guzzling, closely monitor your pup. Related Articles:. Disease Increased Activity Increased activity leads to more water loss through sweat and panting, hence the need for German Shepherds to drink more to rehydrate and regulate their body temperature. Physical activity is essential for a German Shepherd's health and well-being. However, more activity means more water is required. Like humans, dogs lose water through sweating mainly through their paws and panting. These mechanisms help cool their bodies down, but they must also replace the lost fluids with drinking water. The more intense the activity, the more water your dog will need. For example, after a long walk, run, or play session, it's normal for your German Shepherd to drink more than usual. It's essential to always provide access to clean, fresh water, especially after exercise, to help them replenish lost fluids and prevent dehydration. Hot Weather Hot weather can make German Shepherds drink more water as they lose fluids through panting, a natural cooling mechanism. Thus, they need to consume more water to replace lost fluids. Dogs, including German Shepherds, have different ways of dealing with hot weather than humans. Instead of sweating throughout their bodies, dogs primarily cool themselves down through panting, which leads to a higher rate of water evaporation from their bodies. This evaporation, while helping to cool them down, also significantly loses body water. As the temperature rises, German Shepherds will increase their water consumption to compensate for this water loss and prevent dehydration. Access to fresh, clean water is essential to hydrate your dog during hot weather. Keeping them in a cool, shaded area during the hottest parts of the day is also advisable to minimize heat stress and excessive water loss. Always be aware of the signs of dehydration in dogs, such as excessive panting, dry nose and gums, and decreased activity levels. Diet German Shepherds on a dry diet typically need more water to help facilitate digestion, as dry kibble has a low moisture content compared to wet or raw food. The type of diet a dog follows directly impacts their water needs. While dry food requires your dog to drink more water, it doesn't mean it's an inferior choice. Many pet owners choose kibble for its convenience, long shelf life, and potential dental benefits. However, if you feed your German Shepherd a dry diet, always provide ample fresh, clean water to meet their hydration needs. Monitoring your dog's water intake can help you ensure they're staying hydrated regardless of their diet. Age Age influences water consumption in German Shepherds. Puppies, due to growth and higher activity levels, may drink more. Similarly, older dogs might have health issues increasing their water intake. Both ends of the age spectrum in German Shepherds can see increased water consumption. Puppies are typically more active and are growing rapidly, which necessitates more water. They also have smaller bladders and may drink small amounts frequently. On the other hand, senior dogs may also consume more water. As dogs age, their risk of developing health issues such as kidney disease or diabetes, which can increase thirst, rises. Additionally, older dogs might have a reduced ability to concentrate urine, which can lead to increased water intake. Regardless of age, it's essential to ensure your German Shepherd has access to clean, fresh water at all times and monitor any significant changes in their drinking habits. Regular vet checks can help detect any age-related health issues early. Health Issues Specific health issues, such as diabetes, kidney disease, or urinary tract infections, can make German Shepherds drink more water due to increased thirst, a common symptom of these conditions. Health issues are a significant factor that can influence your German Shepherd's water consumption. Diabetes and kidney disease affect the body's ability to filter and retain water, increasing thirst and urination. Similarly, urinary tract infections can cause discomfort and frequent urination, making your dog drink more water to compensate. Monitoring your German Shepherd's drinking habits and watching for any sudden changes is crucial. An unusual increase in water intake, especially when accompanied by other symptoms like weight loss, changes in appetite, or lethargy, should not be ignored. It may indicate an underlying health issue requiring immediate veterinary attention. Regular vet check-ups can also help in the early detection and management of these conditions, ensuring your pet's health and well-being. Medications Certain medications given to German Shepherds can increase their thirst as a side effect, increasing water intake to quench this thirst and maintain hydration. It's not uncommon for some medications prescribed to your German Shepherd to have side effects, one of which could be increased thirst. For instance, drugs like prednisone, a type of steroid often used to treat inflammation, can cause an increase in water consumption. Similarly, certain medications for heart disease or anti-seizure drugs can also increase thirst. If your German Shepherd starts to drink more water around the same time a new medication has been introduced, the two may be connected. However, it's essential not to stop giving your pet their medication without first consulting your veterinarian. Instead, provide your dog access to clean, fresh water, monitor their intake, and discuss any concerns with your vet during follow-up visits or over the phone. They can offer advice, adjust the dosage, or suggest alternative treatments if necessary. Stress or Anxiety Stress or anxiety can trigger excessive drinking in German Shepherds as part of their coping mechanism. This behavior is often observed during stressful situations or significant changes. Just like humans, dogs can also experience stress and anxiety. Situations such as moving to a new house, adding a new family member, or being left alone for long periods can induce stress in German Shepherds. In response to these stressful situations, some dogs might start drinking more water as a coping mechanism. However, it's crucial to rule out any medical reasons for excessive drinking before attributing it to psychological factors. If you notice that your German Shepherd drinks more water during stressful periods, try to identify and address the stressor. You should introduce changes gradually or use positive reinforcement techniques to reduce stress. Consider seeking advice from a professional dog behaviorist or your vet for persistent issues. Dehydration Dehydration in German Shepherds can lead to increased water intake. When a dog's body lacks sufficient water, it triggers thirst to restore balance and prevent further dehydration. Dehydration, or the lack of enough water in the body, can significantly increase your German Shepherd's water intake. It's a compensatory response by the body to restore fluid balance and prevent dehydration. Preventing dehydration in your German Shepherd is crucial by providing constant access to fresh, clean water. However, if your dog seems excessively thirsty and consumes more water than usual, it's essential to check for other signs of dehydration. These can include dry gums, decreased skin elasticity, and lethargy. If you suspect your dog is dehydrated, consult a vet immediately. Prompt rehydration, often requiring veterinary intervention, is key to preventing serious complications. Pregnancy or Lactation Pregnant or lactating German Shepherds require more water due to the increased demands of carrying and nourishing puppies, leading to an increased water intake. The gestation and lactation period place unique demands on a female German Shepherd's body, increasing the need for water. When pregnant, a dog's body works harder to nourish the growing puppies, leading to an increased metabolic rate and, consequently, a higher water demand. This demand increases even more during lactation. Producing milk to feed the puppies requires a substantial amount of water. As such, it's perfectly normal for a lactating German Shepherd to drink more water than usual. To support your dog during pregnancy and lactation, ensure she has constant access to clean water. Monitor her drinking and overall health closely, and maintain regular veterinary check-ups. If any sudden changes or if she shows signs of distress, lethargy, or decreased appetite, seek veterinary care immediately. Specific diseases can significantly influence a German Shepherd's water consumption. Similarly, liver disease can interfere with the body's ability to manage water and electrolyte balance properly, leading to increased water intake. These diseases, along with others like kidney disease or diabetes, often present increased thirst and urination as early symptoms. If your German Shepherd drinks more water than usual, it could indicate an underlying health issue. Therefore, it's essential to recognize sudden changes in your dog's water intake. If your German Shepherd is consuming water excessively, especially if accompanied by other signs like changes in appetite, lethargy, or unusual behavior, consult with your veterinarian as soon as possible. Timely diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve the prognosis for most diseases. Do German Shepherds like drinking water? Yes, German Shepherds, like all dogs, require and enjoy drinking water. It's essential for their health and well-being, aiding digestion, nutrient absorption, and body temperature regulation. Water is crucial for all dogs, including German Shepherds, for survival and optimal health. It serves various bodily functions - it aids digestion, helps absorb nutrients, maintains body temperature, lubricates joints, and facilitates many other physiological processes. While German Shepherds enjoy drinking water, their intake can vary based on their size, age, diet, activity level, and health status. It's essential to always provide your German Shepherd with access to clean, fresh water and to monitor their drinking habits. Changes in their water intake can sometimes indicate health issues, so if you notice your German Shepherd drinking significantly more or less than usual, it would be wise to consult with a vet. Should I worry if my dog is drinking too much water? Yes, you should be concerned if your dog is drinking excessively. If you notice your dog is drinking excessively, it's crucial to consult with your vet as soon as possible. Early diagnosis often leads to more effective treatment and a better prognosis. Remember, while it's normal for a dog's water consumption to vary depending on their diet, activity level, and the weather, a sudden or dramatic increase in drinking is often a cause for concern. Always keep an eye on changes in your pet's behaviors, as they could be communicating their discomfort or the onset of an illness. Regular veterinary check-ups can also help detect any health issues early. German Shepherd puppy obsessed with drinking water A German Shepherd puppy's obsession with drinking water could be experiencing high thirst due to increased activity, diet, or potential health issues. Consult a vet if concerned. A German Shepherd puppy obsessed with drinking water may seem unusual, but it could be due to various factors. Given their high energy levels and rapid growth, Puppies consume more water. Also, if fed a mostly dry kibble diet, they may drink more water to help digestion. However, if your puppy's water obsession seems excessive or is accompanied by other concerning behaviors such as frequent urination, lethargy, or changes in appetite, it could indicate a health issue. Conditions like urinary tract infections, diabetes, or kidney disease could cause increased thirst. It's essential to monitor your puppy's behavior and water consumption closely. If you're concerned about your German Shepherd puppy's obsession with water, it would be prudent to consult with a vet for guidance. Final words Understanding your German Shepherd's water needs is essential for their health and well-being. German Shepherds, like all dogs, require sufficient water daily, with adults needing about 0. However, age, diet, activity levels, weather, and health can significantly influence their water consumption. Therefore, always watch for any significant changes in your pet's drinking habits and seek veterinary advice. Remember, whether an adult German Shepherd or a lively puppy, always provide constant access to clean water. Monitoring and understanding your pet's water needs can contribute significantly to your German Shepherd's happy, healthy, and active life. Frequently asked questions Do you still have questions? Check our FAQ section, and you can find your answer here! The number of bowls a German Shepherd drinks can vary, but generally, they need about 0. Depending on bowl size, this can equate to bowls for an average adult dog. Remember, it's more important to measure your dog's water intake based on weight rather than the number of bowls they consume. Age, diet, weather, and activity level can also influence how much water your German Shepherd should drink. Always ensure they have access to clean, fresh water, and consult with your vet if you notice any drastic changes in their drinking habits. A German Shepherd puppy should drink approximately one-half cup of water every two hours. That equates to about cups of water daily, which can vary depending on age, diet, and activity level. Remember, puppies are more active and may require more water than adult dogs. Always ensure your German Shepherd puppy has access to fresh, clean water and adjust the amounts as they grow and their needs change. If you notice excessive thirst, it's a good idea to consult with your vet. Breed Info If you are thinking of getting a German Shepherd you may have wondered do German Shepherds drink a lot of water? This article will answer that question, explain how much water your GSD should be drinking on a daily basis, and things that could cause your German Shepherd to drink more water than normal. Yes, German Shepherds are large dogs and as such will drink more water than a smaller dog. In addition, German Shepherds are very active so they will need more water to keep hydrated than more sedentary dogs. Normally, dogs should drink an ounce of water for every pound they weigh on a daily basis, but I found that many German Shepherds drink a little more than one ounce per pound. My German Shepherd is 72 pounds, so that means she should be consuming around 72 ounces of water daily. However, there are various conditions that could cause your German Shepherd to need to drink more than this on a regular basis. If it seems like your dog is drinking excessively, look to see if any of the below conditions are present that would increase their need for water. When it is hot outside, your GSD will drink more as a way of cooling themselves down. Conversely, colder air tends to be drier, and the dry air can make your dog dehydrated, thus you may find your pup drinking more in the wintertime as well. Exercise Another reason your German Shepherd will drink a lot of water is because they have been physically active. Just like humans get thirsty when exercising, so do dogs. So, if your GSD just finished running around, expect them to be thirstier than normal. Medication There are a lot of medications that have the side effect of causing thirst in dogs. When my girl was put on antibiotics and an anti-inflammatory, the vet told me to expect her to need more water than normal. If your dog was just put on a new medication, that could be the cause of the extra drinking, but check with your vet to be certain. Illnesses Another reason a German Shepherd will drink more water is because they have some sort of illness. Conditions such as cancer, liver disease and diabetes require your dog to drink more water and their body tries to fight off the illness. Also, as stated above, sometimes the medications they are on to help with the illness also increases their thirst. Diet What your dog eats directly affects how much they drink. Dogs that consume a dry kibble will usually need more to drink than a dog that is on a wet food diet. Also, if you give your dog the occasional human food treat like peanut butter , bread , bacon , or fries you may find that they drink more after consuming these foods. Food that are dry, sticky, or salty will cause your dog to take some extra trips to the water bowl. Age Age is another factor is to consider when looking at water consumption. Puppies are known for drinking quite a bit. This is normal though because as your GSD pup is growing their bodies need more water to support their developing system. Older dogs can also drink more because elderly dogs are more prone to developing conditions that would cause thirst such as diabetes, various infections, liver or kidney disease among other illnesses. If you have an older dog that has been drinking more than normal, make an appointment with the vet just to be sure nothing more serious than dehydration is going on. Final Thoughts German Shepherds can definitely drink more water than some other dog breeds. Heavier water consumption is normal for a large active breed like German Shepherds but there are also other factors that can cause your dog to drink more such as age, illness, medication and the weather. An automatic water bowl is a great tool for providing fresh water all day long. This behavior may warrant a visit to the vet, especially if your dog is showing other concerning symptoms. Here are the most common reasons for German Shepherds that drink a lot of water. Your German Shepherd has a Medical Illness A medical condition can most often lead to an increased thirst. Your German Shepherd may be affected by infections like urinary tract infection or longer-term conditions like diabetes. The vet will observe and ask about a number of symptoms and may also request a urine and blood test for further diagnosis. For example, German Shepherds that eat too much dry food may drink a lot more water than usual. Dog foods like kibble contain very little water content so the German Shepherd will need to compensate that by drinking more water. The same applies for high-sodium food, which should be avoided for a number of health reasons. Large amounts of salt consumption can lead to sodium poisoning so make sure your German Shepherd stays away from such treats. Your German Shepherd is Feeling Hot German shepherds are able to tolerate hot summer weather but not for too long of a period. You may notice the dog is always trying to look for a cool shaded spot to rest in. If you have a backyard then the German Shepherd may also try to dig a hole to rest in. Large dog breeds like German Shepherds will need a decent amount of water to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Generally-speaking, an adult dog will need up to 2.

Jan Reisen points out that how much puppy drinks depends on activity level, size, and age. Puppies consume more water than adults. When puppies start eating solid food, half a cup of water every two hours is reasonable. After weaning, a puppy needs half an ounce to an ounce of water per pound of body weight. An eight-week-old puppy might require 20 ounces of water daily. One of the reasons water is so vital to your German Shepherd puppy is because of its influence on the metabolic process. This process includes breathing, blood flow, brain activity, and digestion. Sufficient water, which makes up most of the blood supply, allows the blood to transport oxygen and clear away toxins that can harm your puppy. Because insufficient water negatively impacts this process, a dog is at risk of organ damage. How much water your puppy gets also allows them to regulate their body temperature. However, panting is a double-edged sword, in that your puppy loses more water during this process. When hot weather or heavy physical exertion is making your puppy pant more, the dog will require more water. When everything functions correctly, your dog will have an appropriate energy level. An adequate energy level helps ensure proper health. Taking up the water at night is a good idea, although you will need to make sure you have a consistent schedule. Water and food for your puppy should be taken up two or three hours before your family usually goes to bed. Any changes in how much your puppy drinks may require closer evaluation at your next vet visit. Even young German Shepherd puppies have good instincts about self-regulating their water usage. However, diarrhea, excessive urination, fever, and vomiting can all dehydrate your puppy. A diet of too much dry food can also cause dehydration. Making sure you know the dehydration signs so you can check your puppy for them makes a difference. Wendy Bedwell-Wilson emphasizes the importance of proper hydration and also points out a couple of ways to find out if your dog is adequately hydrated. Skin that snaps back into place is a sign of a well-hydrated dog, while skin that slowly snaps back is a sign of dehydration. Sticky or day gums are a sign of dehydration. Also, gently press their gums and see how long it takes for them to change back to a healthy pink color, no more than three seconds. When your German Shepherd puppy is mildly dehydrated, gradually give them smaller sips of water. Ice cubes can help provide extra hydration relatively quickly. You can also try an electrolyte powder mix, as these are quite effective. If your puppy is severely dehydrated, evidenced by a loss of skin elasticity, consider this situation a medical emergency. When your puppy has severe dehydration, IV fluids may be necessary to restore proper fluids. However, there are a few things you can do to encourage more drinking. The cleaner both the water and the bowl are, the more they will entice your dog. When you see your puppy drinking water out of the bowl, praise the dog and give them a treat. German Shepherds are very responsive to rewards, and associating drinking water with a reward will encourage them to do so even without prompting on your part. Offering the water in the form of ice cubes can be an enticement for a dog. Dogs often love ice cubes as a treat that provides plenty of amusement. Another bonus is that, if your puppy is teething, the ice cubes can provide relief. Using chicken or bone broth to flavor the water can also entice your dog to drink more of it. Sometimes the added flavor provides an incentive that water alone does not. However, make sure you check the water for freshness because broth can spoil. Sometimes, all you need to do is make water a little more interesting for your puppy. Dogs love the variety as much as we do. Your German Shepherd Dog can, in fact, consume too much water. Overhydrating, also known as water intoxication, can be just as dangerous as dehydration in its own way. If your puppy is showing symptoms, veterinary help might be necessary. When your dog plays in the water a lot of swims, they may accidentally swallow too much water. Drinking too much water at one time can also lead to this problem. It is important to always supervise your dog around water. Water intoxication can make your dog feel very sluggish and lose coordination, including having a staggering gait. Nausea, vomiting, and bloating are some of the gastrointestinal symptoms that might occur. Dilated pupils, excessive drooling , and pale gums are also signs of water intoxication. When your dog has these symptoms after having had a lot of water to drink or has been swimming, overhydration is very likely. Top Dog Tips highlights the importance of seeking veterinary help. More severe symptoms might include difficulty breathing, collapse, coma, or even death. Possible treatments include IV fluids for electrolyte balance, diuretics to help the dog urinate, and mannitol in case water intoxication has caused cranial pressure. Any water ingested can still be absorbed without intervention. There is nothing wrong with innocent water play, as seen in this video.

These hybrids were the ancestors of the Labrador Retriever, and they were owned and used by fishermen in dragging nets filled with fish out of the sea to the boats.

This is especially true after they get home from a walk or just were playing… they will usually drink a lot of water faster than they should… and throw it right back up. Why do Frenchies eat poop? This behavior is known as coprophagia. Here are a few reasons why your French Bulldog eats its own poop. Nutritional deficiencies: Some dogs eat feces to compensate for missing nutrients in their diet. Behavioral instinct: An inherited instinct from ancestors, dogs may consume feces to keep their living area clean. Boredom or attention-seeking: Dogs may engage in coprophagia due to boredom or to gain attention from their owners. Cleaning up the environment: Dogs have a natural inclination to keep their immediate surroundings clean. Medical issues: Underlying medical conditions can affect digestion and nutrient absorption, leading to coprophagia. My Frenchie has diarrhea — what do I do?! If your French Bulldog has diarrhea, there are a few steps you can take to help them recover: Monitor their condition: Keep an eye on the frequency and consistency of the diarrhea. Provide access to fresh water: Diarrhea can lead to dehydration, so make sure your French Bulldog has access to clean, fresh water at all times. Encourage them to drink small amounts regularly to stay hydrated. Adjust their : Consider withholding food for hours to give their digestive system a rest. However, ensure they still have access to water. After the fasting period, reintroduce a bland diet consisting of easily digestible foods such as boiled chicken and rice. Gradually transition back to their regular diet once the diarrhea improves. Probiotics and digestive aids: Probiotics can help restore the balance of beneficial gut bacteria. Consult your veterinarian about appropriate probiotic supplements for your French Bulldog. Additionally, digestive aids such as pumpkin puree without additives can help firm up the stool. Maintain hygiene and cleanliness: Clean up any accidents promptly to prevent the spread of bacteria. Wash your hands thoroughly after handling your Frenchie to avoid potential transmission of any pathogens.

Stress or anxiety: Dogs can experience a loss of appetite due to stress, changes in routine, or environmental factors. Events like moving to a new home, the presence of new pets, or loud noises can cause temporary appetite loss. Providing a calm and comfortable environment can help alleviate stress and encourage eating. Dental problems: Dental issues such as tooth decay, gum disease, or oral pain can make it uncomfortable for your Frenchie to eat. Inspect their mouth for any signs of dental problems, and if you suspect an issue, consult with a veterinarian for an oral examination. Recent vaccination or medication: Some dogs may experience a temporary loss of appetite after receiving vaccinations or starting a new medication. If this persists for more than a day or two, consult with your veterinarian to ensure there are no adverse reactions.

Your French bulldog may not want to lie down Unusual movements Pain in the neck or throat Esophagitis will usually mean a trip to the vet for your Frenchie and the condition can usually be managed with medicine or a change in diet. A high in carbs and low fat diet that contains low protein foods with no allergens in them can help heal the oesophagus. Antacids may be prescribed along with other drugs to help your French bulldog swallow. In extreme cases a balloon catheter can be installed to help manage the narrowing of the oesophagus. This condition is often hereditary and diagnosed by barium swallows and x-rays, so again this will mean another trip to the vet for your four-legged friend. Unfortunately, there is no cure for this problem and will have to be managed over the life of your Frenchie. Managing it is not particularly easy. It requires your dog to be in a vertical and upright position whilst feeding and drinking. Hiatal hernia A hiatal hernia is usually detected when your dog is exercising or particularly excited. This causes an opening in the diaphragm called the oesophageal hiatus which the oesophagus passed through prior to entering the stomach. A hernia can sometimes develop in this location due to an issue caused by one of the below: A protrusion of the oesophagus Lower oesophageal sphincter Part of the stomach A hiatal hernia will mean a trip to the vet again for your French bulldog and quite possibly some surgery. Anti-inflammatory drugs can also be used to help reduce inflammation inside the oesophagus. However medication will only reduce the frequency and severity of the hiatal hernia but will not remove it totally. Surgery may be needed to put the oesophagus and stomach back to what is considered the normal position.

Difference between Vomit and Regurgitation Vomiting can sometimes be confused with regurgitation. Vomiting Vomiting is the involuntary forceful expulsion of digested food, water, or bile from the stomach or upper part of the intestines and causes the abdominal muscles to contract. Vomiting may or may not be accompanied by nausea and drooling. Regurgitation Regurgitation, on the other hand, is a passive process, which does not involve any abdominal contractions and even nausea. Regurgitation is a symptom rather than a disorder and involves only the contents of the mouth and esophagus. The food or water that is expelled does not make it to the stomach and is simply ejected from the esophagus soon after eating. Regurgitation happens more often when the french bulldog has consumed their food too quickly. Why do French Bulldogs Regurgitate and Vomit? French Bulldogs are a sensitive breed with sensitive stomachs and sometimes regurgitate food or stomach fluids. French Bulldogs are brachycephalic and find it difficult to eat and digest food properly. There could be myriads of reasons that make French Bulldogs throw up. Esophageal Disorders There are a lot of esophageal disorders that can cause regurgitation in French Bulldogs. Megaesophagus Megaesophagus is the dilation of the esophagus due to a lack of peristaltic activity. The issue can be congenital or can be acquired later in life. Hiatal Hernia In this condition, the upper part of the stomach pushes through the hiatus small opening in the diaphragm through which esophagus passes into the chest. Esophagitis Esophagitis is the inflammation or irritation of the esophagus and is a result of acid reflux, bacterial or viral infections, or a side effect of certain medications. Brachycephalic syndrome Brachycephalic syndrome can lead to gagging, vomiting, and regurgitation of undigested food. French Bulldogs have the soft tissues of their nose and throat squeezed into a small space. This makes permanent narrowing and obstruction of the airways making breathing difficult for them. So, they breathe through their mouths while eating and inhale a lot of air inside causing them to have a bloated and upset stomach. Food Allergies French Bulldogs have delicate tummies and can be allergic to a lot of foods. Food allergies can be developed over time also. The food which your Frenchie would have eaten for years may start irritating his stomach. Food allergies can also be accompanied by diarrhea, although not always. Food allergies in Frenchies can cause other symptoms such as ear infections, itchy skin, watery eyes, dull coat, and bloody looking nails. Food allergies are more common in young puppies than adults.

Intestinal Parasites Intestinal parasites can cause gastrointestinal-related problems in your dog including vomiting and diarrhea 6. Inflammatory Bowel Disease This condition causes the inflammation of the walls of the gastrointestinal tract and can result in vomiting along with diarrhea, decreased appetite, and weight loss. Gastroenteritis Gastroenteritis results in intermittent episodes of vomiting and diarrhea in dogs. This condition causes the inflammation and irritation of the stomach and the intestines. Ingesting Plants Eating any plant or grass can cause mild gastrointestinal distress, vomiting, and diarrhea in dogs. Eating Spoiled Food Just as humans, eating contaminated or spoiled food can make your French bulldog vomit. Change the Bowls French Bulldogs eat exceptionally fast making them gag, choke, and vomit. The most effective way of slowing down the pace of eating for these speed-eaters could be done by changing the bowls with less leeway to pick the food. Slow feeder bowl or puzzle toy These make your French bulldog work for their foods and take small bites. This not only slows down their pace of eating but also keeps them entertained. Slow feeders are easily available at both online and offline stores. Putting a Toy in the Bowl with their Food Having a toy in the bowl with food will make your Frenchie work around it and eat small bites because of the constrained space. Although you have to make sure whatever toy you have put inside the bowl is not swallowed. Hand-Feeding your Frenchie This can be challenging and time-consuming for many pet parents but can also be tried. Give Frequent Meals If somebody stays at home all the time then serving small meals at short intervals throughout the day can slow down the eating process. Feeding small meals frequently throughout the day can make your French Bulldog less likely to gobble down their food during their mealtimes knowing that another meal is coming soon. Giving food that uses proteins from high-quality proteins can help your French Bulldog have a healthy digestive system and avoid making their digestive sensitivities awful. There should also be a right balance of fiber in their diet, to make sure your Frenchie absorbs nutrients easily without causing any stress on their digestive system. Feed your French Bulldog a high-quality food consisting of natural ingredients such as vitamins, minerals, vegetables, and fruits. Avoid giving food to your Frenchie containing allergenic grains such as wheat, corn and soy and also meat by-products. Probiotics Your French Bulldog can benefit from probiotics which helps in digestion and also strengthen the immune system. Probiotics inhibit the growth of harmful bacterias and also provide many other benefits to their gut. Make sure your French Bulldog gets probiotics formulated specifically for dogs to ensure they get the right types of bacteria. Digestive Enzymes Digestive enzymes help in breaking down fats, protein, and carbohydrates to improve their assimilation in the small intestine. They also combat inflammation and swelling. As your dog gets older, the pancreas is unable to produce sufficient amounts of digestive enzymes, which help breakdown the food to make it easier for the dog to absorb the nutrients. French Bulldogs are generally known for having sensitive stomachs, which is evident in their reactions to various meals over time. However, in order to gain a better understanding of why your dog is throwing up, it is important to ask yourself some pertinent questions. These questions should ideally cover aspects such as when the problem started and whether it is ongoing or has been happening for weeks. Once you address these issues you can move on to the next step of consulting your vet who will physically examine your dog and assess its medical history. There are different instances and reasons that make it possible to figure out why a Frenchie is vomiting. Since your precious companion does not have the ability to tell you what is going on, getting to the root of the problem will require some investigations. You can expect your vet to find out whether your dog has been refusing to eat, ingesting plants, retching or gagging without anything actually coming out, vomiting bile or food and when the vomiting began. Chronic vomiting can go on for a couple of weeks, which is why many people do not seek professional help when their dog throws up a few times during the week and continues to behave in a normal manner. However, if the situation is continuous, it is advisable to get in touch with your vet promptly. Bloodwork is often useful for diagnosing a variety of conditions as well as other tests that are essential for figuring out the underlying cause of the problem. If your dog tried out a new treat recently or you suddenly made some adjustments to their diet, these are factors that can lead to vomiting. It is also a good idea to keep them away from food that contains substantial amounts of dairy products and eggs. Assessing Different Scenarios Esophageal Issues French bulldogs typically have esophagi that are not properly formed. Consequently, this may result in challenges when they eat and swallow along with digestive problems and taking in excessive amounts of air while eating. Esophagitis is a disorder that consists of the esophagus being inflamed because of acid reflux or a food allergy. Symptoms of this disorder include extreme pain during eating, pain in the neck and back, loss of appetite, avoiding lying down, excess drooling, constant coughing and weight loss. Other esophageal disorders and problems include dilation in the esophagus, which manifests as a weakened system that is unable to transport food to the stomach. The food remains inside the esophagus and this usually occurs among older dogs. Exercising after Eating Frenchies and their fragile stomachs cannot effectively handle rigorous activities immediately after eating. It is important to ensure that your dog has lots of time to digest their food before they exercise or start running around. Unfortunately, their distinct features make them susceptible to inhaling a lot of air when they eat their food too fast. This may lead to straining their intestines and causing them to vomit. You can address this challenge by providing small but regular meals that will enable the dog to chew slowly while making sure they do not plough through their food due to hunger. You can expect your pet to develop various allergies as time goes on, which means they are likely to become allergic to food that you have been serving them for years. Vomiting regularly after meals is among the key symptoms of food allergies in Frenchies. They also tend to diarrhea and other symptoms such as loss of fur, watery eyes and itchy skin may also occur. If you suspect that your Frenchie has food allergies, it important to monitor them closely and avoid any items that they react negatively to. In case any of the aforementioned symptoms worsen, you should take your dog to a vet as soon as you can. Tips for handling a vomiting French Bulldog If your Frenchie is vomiting in the morning, keep a close eye on them to make sure that they are breathing normally. After throwing up suddenly, they might be scared and require you to sit next to them to provide comfort and assurance. When vomiting occurs after a distressing period in their lives, becoming overheated, playing too much or eating too fast, you probably do not have to be concerned. However, if it happens suddenly or often, you may need to take your Frenchie to the vet for thorough observation. The following are some worthwhile tips for giving your French Bulldog tender care after vomiting: One of the priorities when caring for a vomiting Frenchie is to do your best to stop them from throwing them up anymore. You can achieve this by keeping them sufficiently hydrated with water throughout the day. Taking this approach will help to prevent them from throwing up continuously. After at least 12 hours of fasting, you can give your dog a small portion of bland food such as boiled carrots and rice. Rather than providing their regular diet, it is advisable to keep it simple and stay away from oily red meat or fish that contains a lot of fat. Re-introduce the usual diet after the problem subsides. It is essential to monitor your pet even when they start eating their usual diet again. This enables you to determine whether there are any underlying problems. Vomiting may be the result of consuming a poisonous substance or being seriously ill. If your dog is vomiting repeatedly, the responsible thing to do in this situation is visit a vet. Minimizing vomiting in French Bulldogs There are food bowls that are specially designed to help Frenchies eat their food at a slower pace or to eat without taking in a lot of air. Giving your dog a minimum of 20 minutes to digest their food before allowing them to go out and play can minimize the risk of vomiting. You should also dissuade them from being active right after their meals. If your dog has food allergies, it can be helpful to purchase dog food that is specifically formulated for their sensitive stomachs and intolerance levels. However, you may also consider talking to a vet before making dietary changes, especially sudden ones. In summary There are numerous reasons for vomiting, which is why it can be challenging to obtain a conclusive diagnosis. Along with keenly watching your pooch, it is important to gather enough information regarding how frequently the vomiting happens, diarrhea, dehydration, weight loss and lethargy. When a Frenchie vomits once and continues eating normally with regular bowl movements, this can probably be classified as a rare incident. Consulting your vet is an opportunity to examine your Frenchie for different issues. In case your dog has any physical or underlying problems, the vet will be able to recommend the most ideal treatment solution to get the doggie back on track. French Bulldogs are vulnerable to digestive issues and vomiting due to various reasons. While vomiting is not an unusual occurrence, you can take a number of precautions to reduce the risks but in most situations, you have nothing serious to be concerned about. If vomiting in the morning happens constantly without a clear cause or your French Bulldog is miserable, taking them to the vet for assurance and a professional diagnosis will give both you and doggie peace of mind. A concussion is the most common form of brain trauma in dogs. Grainy Lumpy vomiting is vomit in which you can still distinguish pieces of the food and indicates that the food has not been in the stomach for very long. Respectively lumpy and grainy vomit often is related to food or something your Frenchie has eaten. This may mean that the Frenchie ate too rapidly or rushed around too fast after feeding. When your French Bulldog is vomiting and heaving, the food is partly digested, and very wet and grainy might be in the vomit and may have traces of blood present. The grains may look like old coffee grounds, and there may be real blood. In certain situations, liquid vomiting that is yellow or clear is a symptom of an entirely different medical problem that has no link whatsoever with the food being eaten. The main variation among liquid or semi-solid vomit would be that watery vomit is often a sign of a serious problem lurking beneath. At the same time, lumpy or grainy vomiting is more strongly related to something consumed. What Your Vet Will Do. To determine an appropriate diagnosis, vets may conduct various basic medical tests, such as blood testing, fecal examination, and x-rays. For certain cases, abdominal ultrasound can be advised to more thoroughly test vital organs more. Popular remedies for dog vomiting due to inflammation of the stomach or intestines include a soft diet and anti-nausea medications. Very severe conditions also require extensive care, such as medications, hospitalization with injectable drugs, and, in certain cases, operations. Selecting the right care plan for your sick Frenchie will more quickly remove many of your symptoms. When there are no other symptoms, it is recommended that meals be stopped for 24 hours. After this regulated abstinence, it is advised to gradually add water and soft, soft foods such as rice, roasted chicken, and low-fat or non-fat cottage cheese. You should contact your vet before you feed the bland eating plan. Roasted chicken has no fat and should be cooked without skin or seasoning. When your French Bulldog is on a specific allergen-free diet and vomits, the vet may suggest that you have them fast for a long time and only give limited amounts of their regular food. There are many causes of your French Bulldog throwing up that can not be avoided, but some could be if you obey certain guidelines: Abrupt changes in diet are a frequent source of gastrointestinal distress in dogs. Also, apply a gradual approach. Should not give small bones to your Frenchie. These are regularly involved in vomiting episodes. When you need to offer your Frenchie bones, large, uncooked types are less likely to split into sharp pieces. Prevent feeding table scraps. Most human foods are unhealthy for French Bulldogs, for example, bananas, raisins, chocolate, onions, garlic, popcorn, macadamias, and high fats. Scavenging raises the risk of foreign-body contamination and exposure to toxic substances. Keep your eye on an overly curious French Bulldog. You also might want to try to use a holster to keep them from having eaten anything they could find on your strolls. My puppy is throwing up fairly often. What do I do? Puppies from all dog breeds will occasionally throw up, as will adult dogs from time to time, but, from our experiences, it seems that Frenchies throw up more than most other breeds. The fact that they are brachycephalic short faced probably has a lot to do with this. Frenchies will tend to gulp water and their food which is why they are sometimes [OK, often times] gassy , and this also contributes to their propensity to throw up more than most other breeds. Based on our experience, if your puppy is throwing up a time or three a day, especially early on as they are getting accustomed to their new digs, it is nothing to worry about, especially if your puppy seems happy and healthy and is not losing weight. If they do gulp food and water, there are some food and water bowls on the market which will slow them down, and feeding your puppy smaller, more frequent meals can help. Sometimes, having dry food always available to them can also help as they will not feel a need to rush and gulp their food. As puppies age, they should throw up less and less frequently until it becomes a fairly rare occurrence. If they continue to throw up several times a day, there is a good possibility that your puppy might have a food allergy. We had one adult female which had a problem digesting the dry food, which we feed to all of our dogs, which has rice as the only grain, in addition to all of the other ingredients. We put her on a grain free diet and she did very well, eliminating the problems of throwing up and having loose stools. We also had one young Frenchie which had a problem with all of the dry food we tried, including grain free, so we tried her on a raw diet and this did the trick. The bottom line is that almost all Frenchies will occasionally throw up, so it is nothing to be alarmed about. However, if it is persistent and there are other signs that there is a problem, corrective action should be taken. It very well may be as simple as a diet change, but if this does not solve the problem, your vet should be consulted. Have More Questions?

Final Thoughts German Shepherd dogs are a very popular dog breed in the world, and they stand second in popularity in the American Kennel Club. Everyone knows that there are two types of German Shepherds — a show line and a working line. They differ in their body look and working drive. However, even among working-line GS, there is one variety that stands out. It is a Czech German Shepherd, the animal with strong working ethics, a straighter back than that in show Shepherds, denser and longer bones, and a more extended life span that makes it less prone to most poor health conditions characteristic of all other German Shepherds. This Czech working-line German Shepherd is relatively a new dog variety that appeared in former communist Czechoslovakia as a perfect dog for the military, law enforcement, and guarding. The only thing is — to buy such a puppy from a reputable breeder to be sure that you acquire a purebred dog. We have compiled the most prominent features, and information about the character, behavior, and way of taking care of this animal, training, and exercising it. So, if you are interested in getting a Czech Shepherd for your household needs, you have arrived at the right place. They were bred for different show line and working line purposes, and so they are different in body structure, color, temperament, and skills. A Czech GSD is one of such remarkable varieties. A Czech German Shepherd was bred as a working dog in communist Czechoslovakia in .There was a special Czech Alsatian breeding program meant to adapt the already existing GSDs to law enforcement services. That is why attention was paid to the qualities allowing them to guard the borders and control strangers. So, there has been the misconception until nowadays, that these dogs were bred for aggression. Czech or Czech Alsatian German Shepherds originated from the DDR German Shepherds and then, partially replaced these dogs in the military, border guarding, and police services. However, the Czech Shepherds were not as popular as East and West German dogs until when they began to be bred as family dogs. Czech and Eastern German Shepherds are often compared to each other. Though they originate from the same breed, these varieties are different. Czech GSs are bigger and bulkier. They can display more colors, such as all varieties of sable and solid black, while DDR Shepherds are darker and smaller in size. The Czech German Shepherd life span is also extended — they can live up to 15 years or even longer under the proper care. They are also less prone to diseases characteristic of German Shepherds, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, which accounts for a longer life span, too. The aggression and friendliness of these dogs can develop equally, depending on the purpose of breeding, so we cannot say that these dogs are more aggressive than others. So, nowadays, they are widely adopted as good family dogs. The most apparent features are strong jaws, pointed ears, and heavy skulls. However, there are significant differences in weight and height because a Czech German Shepherd is heavier and bulkier due to its strong muscles and denser skeleton. The Czech German Shepherd weight is pounds kg for males and pounds kg for females. The height is inches cm in boys and inches cm in girls. That makes them look much bigger and more aggressive than other working lines. Since this variation was bred specifically for military and police purposes, they have thicker paws, broader chests, stronger stamina, and a more intimidating look. Czech Shepherds can be mostly of sable color with the Agouti pattern. It looks more like a wild wolf. Many of them can be of solid black color or a combination of sable and black. This color, together with hard-to-spot eyes and a powerful physique, is meant to make an impression on potential intruders and scare them away. They are intelligent, loyal, and well-trained. However, there is some difference we want to discuss here for you to decide whether such a dog can be a good choice for your family. Czech Shepherds were initially bred as the dog variation to guard the border, serve in the military, apprehend criminals, and stop people from escaping. That is why they are often considered to be prone to aggression and strong-headedness. However, if properly trained, this animal can become your most admirable family member, a reliable protector, and a good addition to any family with young kids. The most prominent characteristic feature of the Czech German Shepherd working line is their loyalty to the owner. It is so immense that sometimes, if not properly trained and managed, it can turn into an obsession. The protective instincts of these dogs are so strong that, if left uncared, they may lead to issues with everybody who wants to enter your house or backyard. However, they can be just as sweet, goofy, and cute as any other varieties of German Shepherds. The only difference is that they are always ready to come back to their working mode immediately. Due to their intimidating look, Czech Shepherds can be strong and reliable home protectors. However, their strength and energy demand a large house or a backyard they can use for running and exercising. You also need to teach them not to jump at people, especially children, at a very early age to avoid problems related to their huge size and a lot of strength in the future. As a working line, these dogs are great at all the jobs related to tracking, sniffing, and protection. They should know how to distinguish between real and imaginary threats because an untrained dog can attack everything and everyone it considers to be dangerous. They are also very intelligent, so training them to follow commands is a pleasure. Their working ethics are admirable. Upcoming Litters What customers say about our puppies "Dedicated to a fault is only one way I would describe her, there are so many positives.Dedication, patience, and caring are truly not strong enough words. Audrey and I discussed her breeding line and I was most impressed! She took the time to explain her dog's lines, what some of them had gone on to do : police, detection, protections, pets - it was impressive. I was beyond happy that Audrey not only had the experience, but also had the educational degrees to back up what she was saying. I did not meet Audrey when this litter was born but instead there were a few male puppies available black and sable but none had been actually chosen yet. Audrey put me down for a sable male per my request. I knew I would not see whatever puppy was to be mine except through videos, pictures, etc….She would send videos, pictures, and just general updates. Audrey was always available and responded quickly to any correspondence. I sometimes wondered when she slept with all these clients and pups. Dedicated to a fault is only one way I would describe her, there are so many positives. One day Audrey sent a particular video and I fell in love. It is the fairest way to allow clients to choose. Audrey and I continued to correspond sometimes daily and she was amazing. A day or so later, Audrey let me know that this little guy was mine. I believe that Audrey does everything within her power to ensure that clients do receive the puppy they want if the fit is correct. Now, we had to transport this little man. Audrey and I communicated a lot! I had never had a puppy brought to my door physically unseen. This was completely new to me yet, I know dogs are flown all over the world. Together, Audrey and I navigated this last leg of the journey and I could not have asked for more from her. Dedication, patience, and caring are truly not strong enough words to use when describing how Audrey was during this process. Audrey ended up keeping my pup who was named Malachi for an extra week. While he was there, she taught him his name and sent pictures and videos often. They certainly made my day! Since Malachi has arrived home, he is nothing short of amazing! He is exactly as Audrey described him and the litter Daisy x Maverick focused, well behaved, eager to learn, and dark stunning sable! Exactly what a great breeder should do. My experience with North Mountain Kennels was wonderful. If you are looking for a well bred high quality working German Shepherd l highly recommend North Mountain Kennels. Audrey is in a class all of her own and I am grateful that the stars aligned so that I was able to be blessed with one of her pups. He is a true gift and I look forward to all the days ahead with him. Thank you Audrey! Currently Available Puppies. Overall, they are versatile dogs willing to work hard at their given job or simply serve as your beloved family pet. Since they have an excellent off switch, they can even manage to shift between those roles on demand if you wish. History of Czech German Shepherd Working Line Dogs Czech German Shepherd working line dogs were developed independently of their counterparts across the rest of the world. Their breed even stands apart from West Germany lines since both sides of the country was separated for so long. As a result, their looks, temperament, and many other characteristics are all their own. Across all their bloodlines, these dogs are compact yet robust with straight backs, pricked ears, and tight feet. They do not have extremely rounded backs, like many American German Shepherd Dogs, for example, who were selected for that trait to excel in the show ring. Instead, these dogs were originally bred by the Czech Army to work. They used these dogs for help patrolling and securing the borders of the country, and it shows in all they do. They learn their tasks fast, are quick on their feet, and have a powerful bite. They are also fiercely loyal protectors who happily stick by the side of their family members day and night. Czech German Shepherd Breed Standards In order to retain the key characteristics of the breed, Czech German Shepherd breeders look for the following traits when choosing dogs for their program. Physical Characteristics To meet the breed standards, males should be between and inches tall at the withers and weigh anywhere from 66 to 88 pounds when fully grown. Females are a bit smaller at to inches and 49 to 71 pounds. Both females and males should have blocky heads, deep chests, and large paws. Their back should look straight from shoulders to tail with only the slightest of slopes. A dense bone structure and large muscles are a must as well, but they should still move in a way that makes them look light on their feet. Coat Colors Czech German Shepherds come in the full range of coat colors found across all variants of this breed. Sable dogs are the most popular and come in light, dark, and black tones. Bi-color, black and tan, and black dogs are found across the lines as well. Health Although Czech German Shepherd working line dogs are rather healthy overall, there are a few issues to watch for in the bloodlines. Other potential health issues include ear infections, bloat, and injuries from their driven, oft stoic nature. Temperament Since they were bred for long hours alongside Czech border patrol guards, these German Shepherds have endless energy and drive plus courage for days. Modern dogs were bred to have an off switch, so they can relax at home with the family without bouncing off the walls. They are protective when the situation warrants it, yet friendly enough to take around town without worry. Like all dogs, they need steady guidance and follow through to learn how to get the job done right. Overall, Czech German Shepherd working line dogs have the perfect balance of intelligence, drive, and looks. They are perfect for those who want to participate in dog sports, like Schutzhund, dock diving, and flyball, and law enforcement activities. As long as they are properly trained, they can excel at whatever they set out to do. While their performance potential is second to none, they are also happy chilling at home with their family. If you choose that route, you do need to go on daily walks and enjoy lengthy play sessions to get their wiggles out or they could feel restless. Expect to spend at least a couple hours a day working with your dog to expend their energy and teach them manners, tricks, and so much more. They thrive on learning new tasks and using their mind to work through challenges. What to Look for in Czech German Shepherd Puppies Czech German Shepherd puppies are a whirl of adorable energy that will leave you simply enamored and dead tired. Since all these puppies are all endlessly cute and energetic, you have to look to their parents to see what they will turn out like. Both the sire and dam should have solid health histories plus come from lines without hip dysplasia and other concerning conditions. Good Czech German Shepherd working line breeders should happily provide all the info you need about their dogs. They should also screen all applicants to properly match each puppy to their ideal owners. Many breeders have a waiting list, so start the conversation early and be prepared to wait awhile.

Breed Info It is generally known that show line German Shepherds are different from working lines. However, few know that there are actually different types of working line GSDs. Among them is a line that originated from Czechoslovakia and was thus called the Czech German Shepherd. Like other types of working line German Shepherds, this one has a straighter back and a more athletic build that enables them to do very rigorous physical work. Nevertheless, these dogs are preferred for some types of work, including roles in the military, law enforcement , and personal protection. By setting and maintaining breed standards, the subsequent offspring displayed the temperament, intelligence, and athleticism GSDs became loved for. Because of this, the breed proliferated in many parts of the world. The Czechoslovakian military selectively bred DDR German Shepherds and made an already impressive courageous pedigree into one that was even more fearless and formidable. This was necessary for their work as border patrol dogs. Modern Czech working lines are no longer as tenacious as they were once bred to be. This makes them more manageable. Nevertheless, they are still known as dogs with nerves of steel and will require an experienced and authoritative handler in order to thrive. Czech German Shepherds are excellent at sniffing, tracking, and herding—all the roles GSDs generally excel in. However, this working type is best suited for even more demanding work. Along with their stronger and leaner bodies, the focus and intense drive that was selectively bred into the Czech GSD make them incredibly effective dogs for patrolling and assisting in criminal apprehension. Their incredible protective instincts also make them useful in guarding spaces from intruders, stopping people from escaping, and protecting their handlers from any physical harm. They all can be traced back to a single sire after all. Nevertheless, the Czech GSDs are different in many ways. They have straighter backs than their show-line counterparts. This makes them less susceptible to bone and joint issues like hip and elbow dysplasia. Additionally, this makes them more agile and athletic. Among all the GSD types, the Czech variant looks most like the grey wolf. Apart from their pointed ears and bushy tail, they tend to have larger heads, broader chests, and more solid musculature than other working lines. Temperament Since these dogs were developed to be extraordinarily headstrong, they can become more prone to aggression. If trained and socialized properly, however, these traits can be incredibly useful. Czech German Shepherds are also intensely loyal to their handlers. This can border on unhealthy obsession. Even so, this ability to bond with one person can be extremely valuable to an experienced handler. Even still every dog will have a slightly different and unique personality. Nevertheless, these dogs can be just as sweet, goofy, and loving but will quickly switch to full-on work mode if needed. Training Needs Czech German Shepherds Require proper socialization and intensive training at a young age to hone all their good qualities and keep from developing bad behaviors. Care Requirements Apart from plenty of physical exercise, Czech German Shepherds will need ample opportunities to exhaust their mental energies and flex their natural canine abilities. In terms of physical care, Czech GSDs require larger quantities of high-quality food as they burn more calories at work. Their dense coats will also need frequent brushing, especially during the shedding seasons that prepare them for the winter and summer months. Because of their harsher temperament and intense work drive, Czech German Shepherds are not typically kept as household pets. Their intense loyalty to their hander can lead to over-protectiveness, which can lead to aggression towards other people and pets in the household. Their strong prey drive is especially dangerous in homes with small children and animals. Additionally, their bullheadedness can also cause many problems in an unstructured home. Despite all these issues, they could still serve as excellent companion animals for someone that can offer firm leadership and proper socialization. Giving them a job or participating in Schutzhund and other canine sports will also help these dogs fulfill their potential. Czech German Shepherds are the rarest among the working lines. This is because they are best suited for highly specialized work. There are, however, many breeders around the world that are dedicated to maintaining the Czech working line. Breeders of Czech German Shepherds are often those who produce and possibly even train specialized working dogs. Prices also increase after health screenings, medical expenses, and training. Breeders of Czech GSDs fetch significantly higher prices for their dogs. The average German Shepherd has a life expectancy of up to 14 years. However, the careful selection and breeding that goes into maintaining the Czech working line mean that these dogs typically live longer and healthier lives than their show line counterparts. Final Thoughts Czech German Shepherds are remarkable workers that can reward you with intelligence, trainability, and exceptional loyalty.
