(1)..First and foremost a healthy balanced diet is important. Some say use barf..but how many of us know how to balance the diet and isn't it a bit troublesome? My suggestion is to use barf if you have the knowledge and time otherwise use the repertoire of dog foods readily available in our pet shops. I strongly believe that fresh meat must be added to your dog diet as an addition to dry dog food. CHOOSE your dog food carefully..educate yourself on the different ingredients listed on the bag of dog food.

(2)..Daily grooming is a must as dog hair goes through daily self renewal and if you don't brush out the old...dog hair can get matted and can cause skin irritation. Also any hidden insects like ants and ticks are brushed out rountinely in daily grooming. While grooming check the dog for good and profuse undercoat...if a dog's diet is well balanced and of good nutritional value...the dog should have good undercoat.

(3)..Good daily dose of fresh air and sunshine...this is self explanatory.
