Importance of care
The key to having your four-legged furry with you for a long time and of course so that he lives very happy is that you take care of him, being meticulous and understanding how it works, as well as the ways to take care of each of the parts of his body. Here are some facts, curiosities, and tips for you to take care of three important parts of your dog's body.
Eyes
This is a vital organ, both for humans and for canines. It is widely heard that when dogs are in a senior stage they suffer from blindness, however, that is not the only condition they can have, hairy ones can also suffer from cataracts, corneal ulcers, irritation, infections or injuries. In addition, it should be remembered that in the mornings, hairy ones may also have lizards like humans and that is why frequent eye care is important.
- Make sure that your friend's eyes are always free, that is, that he has good visibility. If you are a very hairy dog, then take scissors with a round tip and carefully trim the excess or tangled hair in your eye area. In addition, after the bath combs her hair so that she keeps the eye area clear and thus has better visibility, but also that way the risk of suffering any type of disease is reduced.
- Use a saline solution and a cotton ball or gauze (the most recommended) to clean the mucus you may have in the eye area.
- After a bath, too much water may enter and cause irritation. In this case, you can use warm water and dry your hair after bathing.
- Drops of eye drops in your friend's eyes will help prevent irritation, so you can apply them. Normal morning lizards can be cleaned with gauze and warm water, now if something strange is observed in the color, a veterinarian should be consulted.
- To clean spots around the eyes you can use gauze, warm water or a special remover (you can consult with a veterinarian what kind of remover)

- Depigmentation, that is, when it is observed that the color of the nose is changing or is dulling, can be avoided by providing the hairy vitamin B complex or visiting a veterinarian to determine the reasons.
