What are the pros and cons of owning a large/extra large breed dog?
I am thinking of adopting a young bull mastiff/akita mix. I have no kids, 1 cat, 1 bird, big fenced yard and reasonably large house. I am near a big park with trails I plan on walking with dog daily and have neaxt door neighbors who have an akita purebred. What kinds of problems have you had with your big dog? What do you think is best food for them? What are your average vet bills? How is your dog with your other pets? Any info you can share would be greatly appreciated.
Well, first you need to double EVERYTHING. Vet bills are doubled, medications are doubled and so is grooming. Food is about the only thing that is not. Everyone thinks big dogs have a need for more food. That's only true when growing. Once they mature they eat about the same as the average dog. They do tend to be lazier if allowed once grown. They require training on a more strict basis and earlier than small dogs. You dont need a huge unruly dog. You need to pamper their Joints until at least two years of age. They are prone to problems. You dont walk them alot when young and you need to make sure they have a bed to sleep on. Mine tend to be huge scardy cats. They look tough but all are really big babies when it comes to confrontation. You have to feed them small frequent meals because they are more apt to get bloat than a small dog. No water at least a half hour before or after meals. Only feed when relaxed and keep an eye out for it. Dont raise bowls either. I hope this helps. Email me if I can answer any more for you I will.
Oh and lets not forget destruction. Boy can I tell you stories about that.
