The toy poodle is a very popular breed. The joy that this hairy has is amazing. In addition, being a small dog it adapts without problems to living in a flat or apartment. But to stay as healthy as possible you have to provide a series of care from the first day you get home.
As his new family that we are, we have to be responsible to him, so let's see how to care for a toy poodle.
Food
The toy poodle, like all dogs, is a carnivorous animal, which must eat a meat-based diet. If you choose to feed it, it must be a very good quality one that does not contain cereals (oats, wheat, corn) or by-products. This will ensure that you have healthy and shiny hair, white teeth, fresh breath and an enviable mood.
Hygiene
Hair
Once a month you have to bathe him with a dog shampoo to keep the hair clean. If it gets dirty before its time, it can be cleaned with a dry shampoo or by wiping it with a wet wipe for pets. Likewise, it should be taken to the dog groomer to have its hair cut regularly.
Eyes
The eyes they must be cleaned at least three times a week with a gauze soaked in chamomile infusion (which is at room temperature). You can also use specific eye drops recommended by the veterinarian.
Ears
The toy poodle has very delicate ears. They have to be cleaned once or twice a week with a gauze soaked in a little water, or with a specific eye drop. You have to avoid going deep; only the outermost part has to be cleaned.
Exercise
Although it is a small dog, it is very important to dedicate all the time which can. It should be taken for a walk every day and, above all, play a lot with it since it has a medium-high energy level.
