Breeding Advisor
The breeding advisor of the Eurasier Club CZ is Libuse Pecena. If you have any questions about breeding, care, or training of Eurasiers, do not hesitate to contact her.
Coat Care
The Eurasier has a double coat with a dense undercoat and medium-length guard hair. Caring for it is not demanding but requires regularity.
- Brush at least once a week - regular brushing removes dead hair and prevents matting
- Brush puppies more frequently - it is important to get puppies used to brushing from an early age, so brush every other day
- The coat is self-cleaning - the Eurasier coat has a natural self-cleaning ability; mud falls off once it dries
- Do not bathe too often - frequent bathing disrupts the coat's natural protective layer. Bathe only when truly necessary and use dog-specific shampoo
- During shedding (usually twice a year), daily brushing is needed
First Days in a New Home
The transition to a new home is a challenging period for a puppy. Here are some tips to make this transition easier:
Whimpering and Homesickness
- The puppy may whimper for the first 2-3 days, especially at night - this is a normal reaction to being separated from its mother and siblings
- Do not take the puppy to your bed when it cries - you would create a habit that is difficult to change later
- Instead, praise the puppy when it is quiet and calm
- You can give the puppy a blanket or toy that smells like its previous home
Digestive Issues
- The puppy may have diarrhea in the first days, caused by the stress of the environment change and possibly a change in food
- In case of diarrhea, administer Smecta (available over the counter at pharmacies) according to the instructions
- If diarrhea persists for more than 2-3 days or is accompanied by other symptoms, visit a veterinarian
- Initially feed the same food the puppy was receiving from the breeder, and make any changes gradually
House Training
- House training requires patience and consistency
- Take the puppy outside regularly - after every meal, after sleeping, and after playing
- When the puppy relieves itself outside, praise it immediately
- Do not scold the puppy when an accident happens indoors - simply clean up calmly
- Gradually, the puppy will understand that it should relieve itself outside
