Under the great fearless warrior armor Dogue de Bordeaux hide enough cracks. This is not a feature of "Dog French pride" but a sad reality for most breeds of dogs large and very large.Even if Dogue de Bordeaux is an animal with a good tone and penchant for exercise, very fast and agile despite its size and solid structure, it presents a series of sensitivity of medical and predilection for what we might call the breed specific diseases .
Puppies are born in numerous nests , 10 to 16 members - even though, often requires cesarean birth - and the first care of a licensed breeder, experienced and professional attitude is to test them carefully to identify specimens inherited problems. In fact, the history of any specific disease or another breed started in this way: a baby with serious health problems brought to maturity and encouraged to perpetuate and which, therefore, has transmitted descendants weaknesses.
This attitude is not in favor of development and support of a race, regardless of the species of which we speak. For Dogue de Bordeaux has experienced fame and international recognition in recent years (last 3 decades), many owners of these dogs, and even breeders have ignored medical problems arising from ignorance or mistaken tolerance rush gains fast. Today, when race is becoming increasingly popular and best known is good to document thoroughly and in terms of health deficiencies and be ready to step in removing problems when deciding for a Dogue de Bordeaux.
Hip dysplasia and the elbow, osteochondritis dissecans with (a disease of the cartilage in the shoulder) are breed-specific diseases, relatively frequently recorded. Reducing the risk of such diseases to your dog Dogue de Bordeaux is closely correlated with diet and exercise level during junior. The puppy stage, massive Dogue de Bordeaux is touchingly small (probably bitches are often overly protective of their offspring). Between 4 weeks - 40 weeks will record growth rates spectacular. Skeleton must keep pace with the growth of the whole body and will need a major contribution of vitamins and minerals from food. Proper nutrition, adapted to each stage of growth, both in terms of quantities given formula and represents the first key in the equation of a harmonious development of the musculoskeletal system. Also, the difficulty and intensity of exercise that will be involved junior dog matters. Any exaggeration about the difficulty of exercise or duration of their practice may be prerequisites for certain diseases in the bones, joints, cartilage inter-bone and joints.
When you buy a chicken breed Dogue de Bordeaux request that card with his dogs medical history included preventive and skeletal radiography. Predisposition for one of the diseases listed above can be identified by X-ray radiography and you should make sure you do not buy a puppy that will "fail" in terms of physical maturity period.
Gastric torsion is again an alarm permanently set to the breed. For the Dog de ??Bordeaux has a very large mouth he will be tempted to consume their entire quantity of food offered in a few sips. This style of feeding, accentuated by the fact that he is a greedy, gastric torsion lift threat at an alarming rate.
I quietly swallowed food velocity using suitable vessels, not very wide, divided into 2-3 servings daily the mystery if we think it is useful, do not allow any other animal or close family member or stand around feeding site (dog will instinctively feel a threat to their food and will rush to consume). Give your dog water at an interval of 15-20 minutes after he finished eating, not immediately, and, at least for 1 hour, do not plan any activities with him. Siesta is very important and you should respect this custom.
Demodectic mange is caused by a microscopic mite, Demodex canis. All puppies are born free of the disease (not contagious, unlike Sarcoptic mange), but mothers who sent him this parasite chicks from the early days of life. Other form of transmission (between two adult dogs, for example) there. Transmission from mother to baby is the area where they come into contact most frequently (per capita), and chickens raised outside the nest, no mother would not produce disease. Mites live inside hair follicles, a place where drugs penetrate with difficulty. There are 3 forms of the disease: localized and generalized demodectic pododermatita (disease occurs in the feet). Symptoms are identified as red lesions, scabs forming well defined in the first phase the head and face. Form localized disease often heals by itself, or fails after applying certain specific unguents. Hair in the affected area falls initially, but recovers after approximately 1 month after successful treatment. Sometimes complications can occur through interaction of the disease associated bacterial pathogen. Generalized form is very difficult to control and, in such cases, the specimens affected will be stopped from reproducing.
Other diseases that can be raised in within the breed: eczema and skin infections (often in the folds of skin on the face), premature arthritis, kidney disease, cardiomyopathy and epilepsy.
