English Mastiff Puppies Blog

Having a dog means shedding, unless the dog is a hypoallergenic type or bald. The English Mastiff however is neither. For some breeds, shedding can come at a predicted time such as the seasons. This makes owners ready with vacuums, brushes and lint removers, expecting the worse. The English Mastiff is said to shed twice a year. But Mastiff owners say otherwise.

These dogs shed everyday in little amounts and this daily accumulation is a lot! It is recommended that daily brushing be done to minimize the shedding. Like the saying goes “An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure”. It may not be a great idea to put things off when it comes to grooming the English Mastiff. Owners should take the time to sit down and give them a once over. Unless  they are willing to do the same with the whole house!

Raising puppies need responsible owners and enthusiasts to properly monitor their growth. Take theEnglish Mastiff for example; there may be puppies that weigh 55 pounds at 5 months whereas according to their growth chart, they should be hitting 80 pounds at that age. First thing is not to panic. Dogs experience growth spurts just like humans but not all at the same size. What is important is to check if they are healthy; not too fat nor too thin. If this still causes worry then ask the following questions:

• Are the parents small in size?
• Are they being fed properly with the right nutrients?
• Are the puppies being over exercised?
• Have they contracted any virus or worms?

Going to the veterinarian will be helpful in getting useful information that can help relieve worries. Of course, DNA testing to check if it really is in the bloodline is an extreme but possible step.
