yes Japanese Spitz dogs also shed their hairs..its just normal to all the mammals including us
Lamb is perfect for a Japanese spitz... as it helps to maintain/restore their fur and a good source of protein which aid in muscle growth.
Lamb dog food for puppys
Lamb meat for Adult
Warning: Pls don't feed cooked bones its too dangerous
Love your Dog like a Man! Its rewarding!
I'm no expert on the subject, but seeing that this question has not yet been answered, I was tempted to give a response. I have a Japanese Chin myself. She is about a little over a year now, and I would say I feed her quite well, I give her Castor & Pullox' UltraMix for Puppies. She does shed moderately. It's not a problem as much as my German Shepherd sheds, but her fur can be found around the room and on my clothes from time to time. And sometimes in my mouth.
The Jack Russel terrier is often confused with either the Russel terrier or the Rarson Russel terrier. But my arguments should hold for either of the three.
1) they both span from 2 completely seperate families. The jrt comes from the terrier family.Originally bred for fox hunting. The Japanese Spitz comes from the spitz family. Originally the spitz was bred to look nice for wealthier japanese people.
2)The spitz is usually completely white with a long, smooth, clean, double coat. where as the jrt is usually no less than 51% white with brown spots throughout. the jrt aslo has either short hair or wired hair.
3)The spitz has a much more quiet temperment than the jrt. apart from barking to alert it's family of a new person in the garden, the spitz is usually quiet.It also has a tendancy to dislike dogs of the same sex. The jrt has a very stubborn temperment.
4)The jrt is slightly smaller on average, with it's height going from anywhere between 10-15 inches(at the withers, for males). whereas the spitz is usually 13.5-14.5 inches (again at the withers, for males).
5)The jrt was bred for sport. and as a terrier has nearly unlimited energy (known as wind). The japanese spitz will always be up for a walk, but is clearly no match for the endurance of a jrt when it comes to any kind of physical activity lasting longer than a few minutes.
12 to 15 inches in height and 11 to 20 pounds. they are in the northern group. they are expected to live 12 years. they need a long, daily walkin addition to that they need some time free from their leash.
The Japanese Spitz is a high-spirited, intelligent, and playful dog, which is alert and obedient. This bold little dog is a good watchdog and will alert its owners when it feels it is necessary. The Japanese Spitz is not difficult to train as long as the owner is always consistent. This breed learns quickly and really enjoys agility and playing games of catch with balls or Frisbees. This happy dog is usually good with children and usually gets along well with other dogs and household pets. The Japanese Spitz is, in spirit, a big dog in a little dog's body. This tough little dog acts as a house protector and guardian. The Japanese Spitz can be an inveterate barker if you allow them to believe they are in charge. Be sure to tell your dog enough is enough and to quiet down if he starts barking obsessively. Cheerful, bold, proud and affectionate toward its masters. Make sure you are this dog's firm, confident, consistent pack leader to avoid Small Dog Syndrome, human induced behavior problems. When dogs are allowed to be pack leader to humans they can developed many types of behavior issues, including, but not limited to, being suspicious of and barking at strangers, guarding, separation anxiety, destructiveness, snapping, and even biting. These are not Spitz traits, but rather behaviors resulting in a lack of leadership on the humans part. Always remember, dogs are canines, not humans. Be sure to meet their natural instincts as animals. They need rules to follow, limits to what they are and are not allowed to do and a firm, consistent, confident pack leader, along with daily mental and physical exercise.
The long-haired coat of the Japanese Spitz has a thick under-layer that is always pure white. The tail is covered with long hair and is carried curled over the back. The coat is short on the bottom half of the legs, with breeches on the hind legs and feathering on the forelegs. The ears are small and pointed upright, and the muzThe Japanese Spitz should be combed and brushed regularly. This is a very tidy animal that should be bathed only when necessary. When the dog is shedding, use a comb with a double row of metal teeth to remove loose hairs from the under-layer. The large oval eyes are dark and slightly slanted, and the nose and lips are black. The faceNo one knows for sure of the origins of the Japanese Spitz, but some claim it is descended from the native Siberian Samoyed. This theory is controversial but those who believe it claim, Samoyeds were strictly bred for smallness, with the end result being the Japanese Spitz. Everything about the Japanese Spitz strongly suggests that it is simply a small version of the Samoyed. Creation of the breed commenced in the late 1800s.
a japanese spitz should be bathed only 4 times a year! but this might be a small number if the dog goes on long walks and gets dirty so once every months is good.bathing a japanese spitz more than that will ruin the natural oils in his coat.
No. Despite looking similar, they are not closely related.
Japanese Spitz are not on the top whatever they are home dogs that just love you and guard your house they are smart,loving and the truth is the Japanese Spitz are awesome!!! :P
hard breathing but basicly that is the only one!they are very loving
Any dog can bite, especially under certain circumstances, including fear, illness, unexpected movements, and provocation from strangers.
The Japanese spitz has a solid reputation for having a stable, friendly temperament and being a kind companion for children. However, this intelligent breed should not be allowed to "rule the roost." It requires an owner who is willing and able to take command, correcting the dog's behavior when necessary, keeping in mind that harsh, painful corrections are not helpful. These canines are also protective of their families and rather suspicious of strangers, so be sure to carefully introduce your dog to new people.
The breed was developed from the Samoyed and German Spitz, which are relatively nonaggressive dogs, but it is also related to Siberian huskies, malamutes and Chinese chow-chows, all of which can be problem biters. Train your spitz consistently using positive training methods to help ensure that she remains a well-balanced, submissive, and loving pet.
Yes! In fact, if your japanese spitz is anything like mine she'll probably appreciate the extra help keeping clean around this time =)
Blue buffalo, wellness, taste of the wild, etc. or other grain free foods are good
