How much should a Labrador dog weigh

Labrador

The Labrador is a very affectionate dog that he loves children and doing mischief. He enjoys spending time running and playing, and is also very sociable. In fact, she gets along well with anyone who gives her affection and gives her confidence. Of course, it can be a bit stubborn at times, but despite that, it is very easy to train.

Although teaching him some basic rules of coexistence is not all we have to do with him. These dogs have a tendency to get quite fat, especially after neutering them. Thus, it is important to know how much a Labrador dog should weigh to avoid one of the most worrisome problems that furry people can have: obesity.

The Labrador is a medium-sized dog, that is, it is not small but it is not giant either. In adulthood, males should weigh between 27 and 34 kilos, while females should weigh between 25 and 32 kg. Whether you weigh less or more, your health could be in jeopardy. But how do you know if you are fat or skinny?

Well, dogs that are at their weight, if you look at them from above, you can make out the waist. Some ribs can be scored a bit, but not to the point of being seen. Ideally, the animal has enough weight so that they are not seen. On the contrary, if you are thin, the ribs will be seen with the naked eye; and if you are obese, your waist will not be visible.

      Hello Aug.
      He's a little bit over his weight, yeah 🙂
      The first thing I advise you is that you take her to the vet, because if we make changes in the diet wrong, it can be worse for the animal.
      These changes will be above all to give him the amount of feed that corresponds to him, and avoid giving him treats and food for humans.
      It is also important that you exercise, not only walks, but also running after a ball, stretching a rope or a bite with someone, etc.
      Thus, little by little, you will regain your ideal weight.
      A greeting.

        Thank you.
        And another little question, how can I heal a sore on his nose that was caught with a wire?

          You can clean the wound with hydrogen peroxide and gauze once a day until it heals. All the best.

            You can also use hydrogen peroxide. But if it is not cured, it should be seen by a professional. All the best.

    Hello Elisa.
    These other dogs are probably not neutered and / or want to let your dog know that "they rule."
    You can try to bring treats for dogs and give them before they mount it.
    A greeting.

    Hello. Good morning I have a crying puppy with a 1-year-old Labrador it's pretty crazy but the problem is that sometimes you see people and are sent to try to bite and it's hard to catch it at that moment, I'm afraid that they'll hurt me, what should I do? I do not know why that behavior without being attacked
