Winter survival tip 1: no cold drinks
If Siberian huskies eat cold or icy food or drink cold water in winter, their digestive system will immediately sound an alarm. So, pet owners must not be lazy and give Siberian huskies milk and food straight from the refrigerator. In winter, there is not enough sunlight and it is cold, so Siberian huskies need to consume energy to keep themselves warm. You can add cooked and chopped vegetables such as carrots and green vegetables, which contain vitamins, to their food. With a better diet, their resistance will naturally increase.
Winter Survival Tip 2: Warm Nest
Because of the daily temperature fluctuations and cold winds, Siberian husky puppies are susceptible to catching a cold and getting sick, with symptoms such as runny nose, fever, and cough. Without a warm and comfortable nest, not only are they more likely to catch a cold, but they may also develop joint problems!
Cold winds and dampness always blow towards the ground, so lying on the ground, Siberian huskies are more susceptible to catching a cold than we are. If your Siberian husky is used to sleeping outside alone, be sure to elevate its nest in the winter so that it is above the ground and away from the cold winds. Place its home in a spot where there is no “cross-breeze.” The nest should also be lined with clean and warm blankets to make the Siberian husky feel both warm and comfortable inside.
Winter Survival Tips 3: Bath Time On Schedule
Bathing is a necessary measure to ensure that your Siberian Husky stays clean and healthy. Even though the weather gets colder, you should not neglect this “homework”. However, you should not bathe your pet too frequently. Generally, a bath once a week is enough. You just need to brush their fur every day and wipe their paws clean after a walk to keep them clean.
It’s also important to remember that if you bathe your Siberian Husky immediately after exercise, the chances of them catching a cold will increase significantly. Therefore, even if your Siberian Husky comes back from outside covered in mud, you should wait at least half an hour before giving them a bath. Remember! Remember!
