Is it possible to live poor in Alaska

If you don’t have a mine at home, is it really not recommended for you to raise an Alaskan?
People who have experienced it say that raising an Alaskan is a waste of money and a bottomless pit.
So where exactly does it cost money?

6 big money-burning areas:

Spend money on deworming

For long-haired dogs like Alaskan dogs, deworming is really essential, otherwise there will be a lot of parasites and bacteria breeding in the hair.
However, when it comes to deworming, it is generally used according to body weight.
He has a physique like Alaska, but the price of deworming medicine is several times more expensive than others.

If someone else eats one, it will eat three, and the cost is also distressing.

Spend money on bathing

Bathing for small dogs, 100; bathing for big dogs, 150.
Bathing a short-haired dog is RMB 150; bathing a long-haired dog is RMB 300, double that!
For a heavyweight long-haired dog like Alaska, people in pet stores may not accept this big bathing project.
It’s not impossible to take a shower if you want, just pay extra. Taking a shower is several times the cost of others.

Foster care costs money

When fostering, an ordinary dog cage could not fit a big dog like Alaska.
What should I do if I want to foster? Then you can only live in a single room.
Living in a single room and enjoying different treatment, the price is naturally painful.

Spend money on medical treatment

The biggest fear of raising a large dog like an Alaskan is actually getting sick.
You know, when treating dogs, the dosage of medicine is based on body weight.

Moreover, the medical expenses for pets are several times that of humans, so they really can’t afford to get sick!

Daily necessities are expensive

If you want to feed Alaska, even ordinary snacks have to be bought several times larger. The snacks are probably not enough to fit between the teeth.
Snacks and toys are also indispensable in life, playing a role in adjusting the mood.
Of course, if you want Alaska to get enough snacks, it is recommended to buy it a teething stick.

Eating too much takes up the main expense

Can such a big thing as Alaska eat less? The most expensive thing is feeding.
Especially carnivorous animals like Alaska, which simply enjoy all kinds of meat.
However, since you have raised Alaska, it is best not to compromise its diet. Not being satisfied with the diet will not only affect the gastrointestinal tract, but also make Alaska lose weight.
Therefore, it is recommended that when choosing dog food, you can choose a dog food with high meat content, high-quality nutrition, and suitable cost performance.

Conclusion: Can you afford Alaska like this?

I have two Alaskans. I have brought them home since I was 40 days old.
In fact, raising Alaskans is not as difficult as imagined. As long as you take good care of them, you can easily watch them grow up. Now let me talk about some of the tips I learned while raising them.
1: Alaska’s physical health is not good. Remember, you must not go out before the vaccine is available. It is really easy to contract infectious diseases. My mother Ala was the first to come to my home. She was not experienced enough at the time and was still one shot away from the vaccine. I took her out to the park to play, and the day after I came back, I started coughing. Within 4 days, I was diagnosed with canine distemper. Fortunately, after 20 days of treatment, I finally recovered.
2: Ala is a large dog, especially between 4 and 8 months old, it grows very fast, so it is really important to supplement calcium and joints, because excessive weight will cause the leg bones to be unable to support and lead to various joint problems in the later period. Appear.
3: Alaska’s hair is long, so it needs to be taken care of well so that it doesn’t feel boring. There are many hair beauty powders on the Internet, which are expensive. I followed suit and bought them for a while. I took them for about half a year, but the effect was not very good. Later, I read a book and introduced that egg yolk is a natural hair-beautifying product. Later, I started to eat egg yolk and combed my hair frequently. I persisted for about 3 months. The hair was obviously much brighter and more beautiful.
4: Alaska’s glass stomach. When they were little, I had to go to work, so they always ate dog food. In the past two years, I have had frequent diarrhea, especially male dogs. I have had diarrhea 28 days a month. Since I had no other physical problems, I went to the pet hospital for various examinations and it was fine. Then nothing happened. Now I think of my male Alaskan, who continues to have diarrhea. It’s been over a year, and I’m still feeling distressed. Later, due to some special circumstances, I resigned from my job and stayed at home. Because I was more interested in studying various foods, I started to cook dog rice for the dogs (beef, chicken breast, duck and other meats paired with fruits and vegetables). Occasionally I also ate some raw chicken carcass, and within a week or so, my dog’s diarrhea stopped, and his poop was no longer as smelly and plentiful as before.
The above is my experience in raising, you can refer to it, there are many small details, I will add them to you later!
