I have 3 dogs before and other animals like hamsters, birds, rabbit. Right now, I have a black laboratory, he is two years old. I adopted him from a shelter. During summer I will do the shower once a week and during winter I will do the shower twice a week. I use shampoo and conditioner. Every day I use wipe to clean the surface of the hair. Every morning and night I use breath spray. In the morning I bring him walk about an hour and at night I bring him to the dog park play with other dogs. I brush the hair twice a day. In my house I have big yard and enough glasses to play with him. My dog afraid about missing, I always stay with him and pet him, let him feel safe.
