This article will combine the hot pet-raising topics on the Internet in the past 10 days, conduct a structured analysis of the age judgment method of Teddy dogs, and attach relevant data for reference.

The hair of Teddy dogs will show obvious changes with age:

3. Comparison of behavioral characteristics and age

Discussions on pet behavior have become increasingly popular recently. The following are the typical behaviors of Teddy dogs at different ages:

  • Adult (1-7 years old):High energy, strong learning ability, quick response to instructions
  • Seniors (7 years+):Reduced activity level, joint stiffness and unresponsiveness may occur

4. Things to note when making comprehensive judgments

According to recent popular veterinary science posts:

  1. The error of tooth judgment method increases after 3 years old, and other characteristics need to be combined
  2. Diet will affect the rate of tooth wear (for example, dogs that eat soft food for a long time will wear their teeth more slowly)
  3. Neutered dogs may appear younger than unneutered dogs of the same age

5. Reference for professional testing methods
