One of the issues we discuss here are health problems. We have explained, for example, what are the signs of worm infestation – if you notice that your pet vomits and coughs often, has lost weight, or experiences any other symptoms, you should take it to the vet as soon as possible.

Apart from that, we have also gained a lot of information on how to raise a healthy and happy puppy. You can find out what to do to improve your little friend’s mental abilities so that they can be more sociable and self-confident, as well as less stressed out. Moreover, you will learn about all the steps that should be taken before letting your puppy play outside. On top of that, we have provided many useful tips on raising kids and puppies together, so if you are a parent who wants to get a doggy for their little one, you should learn how to make the sleeping arrangements, what to monitor when they are playing together, etc.

Some of our blog posts are dedicated to particular breeds, so you can learn more about German Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, Corgis, French Bulldogs, and more. Every breed may have different qualities, needs, and common health issues. For this reason, apart from learning some general facts on taking care of a dog, you need to know what to pay attention to in the case of your particular canine.

In order to help you choose the best supplies for your dog, we have also prepared a lot of useful reviews of particular products. You can see which brands of food are the most recommended for dogs of certain breeds, ages, weight, etc. What’s more, you can also see which kinds of food are best for pets with particular special needs (like allergies, obesity, or specific health issues). All the food we recommend in our blog posts has been checked by our experts, and you can be sure it has been made of high-quality ingredients to be both tasty and healthy for your four-legged companion.

Interestingly, some of our posts are also focused not on dogs directly but on something associated with them. As an example, you can browse our movie post, where we have gathered all the best suggestions of what a dog lover can watch. There are classic movies such as All Dogs Go to Heaven, Lassie Come Home or Beethoven, along with some more recent ones like Marley & Me or The Artist. Lots of these stories are really heart-melting and have been loved by dog lovers all over the world!

Stay tuned for more interesting information on the My Sweet Puppy blog, as we frequently update it to help people expand their knowledge on their pets. Enjoy!
