THINK BEFORE YOU BUY: You are not purchasing an item, you are purchasing a live animal that will become a part of your home. Please be sure that your new family member will be welcomed by all in your household. We want happy owners and puppies. Think carefully before you buy. All of our puppies come with first vaccinations and are given a full health examination by a Licensed Veterinarian. This certifies that the puppy is healthy at the time of sale. Please note that predicted weights are estimates and MaximumBull makes no promise of what a puppy will actually weigh fully grown. If you have questions, please contact .
WE RECOMMEND: I want your puppy to be healthy. One way for him/her to stay healthy is for you to purchase quality pet items online. Pet Stores and Superstores allow pet owners to bring their pets inside. This is cute, but makes these stores breeding grounds for Parvo and many other common animal diseases spread by irresponsible pet owners who do not vaccinate or provide proper care for their animals. We suggest your avoid bringing a puppy into such an environment until after all your pet's initial vaccinations are complete (after 20 weeks of age). I feed Royal Canin dog/puppy food. We recommend these products. We also you Nylabone never give your puppy/dog Rawhides or Cow Hooves they will choke on them and splinter in there mouth and throat.
Hidden Dangers To Your Puppy
Puppies love to lick the face of their new owners, but sometimes this can cause health issues for your new pet.
If you're wearing Make-Up, do not allow the puppy to lick your face. The chemicals in Make-Up can make your new pet seriously ill!
If you have recently had your carpets cleaned with chemicals, those chemicals can make your pet very sick.
Be sure your pup doesn't lick the carpet. Keep pups off of freshly mopped floors that may have chemicals on them. You should also be careful that your puppy doesn't eat or lick candy (especially chocolate!), bug bait and other pest control materials or snow melting chemicals.
If a puppy starts throwing up, but has no temperature or has been checked for infections or common diseases and has none, it may have eaten or licked something it shouldn't have. If you take a puppy like that to the Vet, be sure you tell them about any possible poisoning situations (carpet cleaner, floor washing chemicals, Make-Up, etc). Once you purchase your pup, it becomes your pet and your responsibility. Please take every precaution to keep your new pet healthy.
Please Be aware that vaccinations sometimes fail for various reasons, and a dog does not develop full immunity to some diseases until they are a full year old and have had all their puppy shots, including a booster at the age of 1 year. If you are not willing or able to make sure that your puppy gets ALL of his scheduled vaccines and boosters, please do not purchase a puppy. The ideal method of guarding your new puppy against illnesses is to keep it away from other puppies less than a year old, older dogs who have not had vaccines, any dog who is ill, and places where other dogs have been doing their business or other dogs have been ill until your puppy is at least a year old and has his/her final booster. This isn't practical or possible, in many cases.
Being informed is a good alternative, and a strict adherence to all vaccination schedules and a veterinary program is a must. There are many illnesses that can affect dogs. For a more in-depth look at health, vaccines, and how various illnesses can affect your dog, symptoms, etc., Puppies under a year old are especially vulnerable to a few diseases. If you keep yourself informed, you can avoid health problems and illnesses in your puppy.
Don't wait a few weeks or a month and then take the puppy to the vet. Do it right away, as soon as possible. Don't wait until your puppy is sick to introduce him to the vet. Get into the habit of seeing your vet on a regular basis. Think of him as your puppy's "pediatrician". The vet is a good person to get to know, and taking your dog to the vet for shots, health checkup, etc., is a good habit to get into right at the very beginning. Puppy "babies" require the same attention and care -- vaccines, well checkups, vitamins, etc. -- as human children. Maybe more. If you are not willing to commit to doing this, please buy a hamster or some other animal that does not require the care and attention that a puppy will require.
When you buy a puppy, you will receive a shot record with dates, ages, of the vaccination .
You can put future shots. Always, ALWAYS, take it with you to the vet's office. That way, he will know the vaccines, wormers, etc., that your pet has already had and will not inadvertently give him something the puppy doesn't need.
Eating food that is readily digested and metabolized will reverse minor signs, but intravenous glucose administration is required for severe cases. Puppies with Transient Juvenile Hypoglycemia have normal liver size and function, but inadequate glucose precursors or glucose in its stored form. Therefore, any significant stress, such as a routine trip to the vet's, that occurs in the absence of a recent meal, can cause the blood sugar to drop to dangerously low levels. Low environmental temperatures, infections, vaccinations, strenuous exercise, worming, and inadequate nutrition increase the risk even further. Feeding recommendations for puppies at risk for hypoglycemia include frequent (4 - 5 times a day) feedings of high-carbohydrate, high-protein and /or high-fat foods. Normal feeding schedules will be 3-4 times per day. Make sure water is available at all times.
ALL of the puppies are monitor on a constant daily basis, and we are quite aware of the health and well-being of each dog. The pregnant females are pampered, spoiled, and given extra supplements, etc., to make sure they are healthy.
While nursing, they receive supplemental vitamins and extra treats to make sure they stay healthy while nursing and that the puppies are given a good start. They are started off well and are kept that way throughout the time they are with us . We encourage you to also keep them that way after they become apart of your family by establishing and maintaining a good health maintenance schedule with your veterinarian. Please keep these instructions in a safe place,where they can be referred to easily.
