Verzorgingstips voor Chiweenies

Tip #1

Back Protection: Their elongated spine makes them prone to intervertebral disc disease. Use ramps, avoid jumping, and maintain a healthy weight to protect their backs.

Tip #2

Socialization Importance: Both parent breeds can be wary of strangers. Early, consistent socialization helps prevent excessive fearfulness or aggression.

Tip #3

Moderate Exercise: Despite their small size, they need daily walks and playtime. Short sessions throughout the day work better than long exercise periods.
