Your dog will be trying to vomit, he’ll be panting and pacing, drooling with a hard, swollen stomach.
This is a common illness or condition seen in many dogs, young and old, large and small.It’s a disease which can lead to pain, arthritis and lameness.
The Pudelpointer has floppy ears and loves swimming. The floppy ears are at risk for developing ear infections. Check inside the ears that they aren’t red or have a discharge. Your dog will be scratching his ears a lot.
The White Shepherd shares health problems much the same as the German Shepherd, and one of these is hip dysplasia.
These dogs are at risk of getting hip dysplasia. It’s a congenital disorder with dogs inheriting the disease from their parents. Some young dogs can get the disease too. Because they are such active dogs, the White Shepherd is at risk of dysplasia. There are a number of signs you can look for in your dog and some of these are -

Brush your PudelPointer twice a week to get rid of loose hairs.
Grooming can be an awesome bonding experience for you and your dog. While you’re brushing him, check him over for any unusual lumps.
Trim the nails if they don’t wear down naturally themselves.
Check inside the mouth for rotting teeth which can be a source of pain and lot of diseases in the body.
Exercise is very important and can come in the form of a walk every day or hikes, swimming as well as ball- and rope games and hide-and-seek.

Your PudelPointer can get to 14 years of age with good food. While you do get some excellent commercially manufactured dog foods, you want to be sure your pet gets some nutritious home-made food too.
Make sure that the kibble is the high quality ones with lots of vitamins and minerals. Boiled chicken, brown rice or pasta and spinach, sweet potatoes and carrots are a healthy choice for your pet – plain and simply just like dogs love it. Chop it up and add it into the dry kibble a couple of times a week.
Some raw meat added in from time to time will help his skin and coat remain healthy. Never leave him without a constant source of fresh, cool water.

The White Shepherd is an active dog, so to keep him that way, ensure he gets good food which has the right balance of vitamins.
There are good commercially manufactured dog foods on the market, but the idea is to know how to choose the high-quality ones and to avoid the ones that can actually jeopardize your dog’s health.

It is always a good idea to give such a dog some home-made food too. Not any kind of home-made food either because you have to be careful with dogs to avoid them suffering from abdominal pain. They like their food plain and simple – boiled chicken, brown rice and vegetables.
Some raw meat occasionally is also good. Don’t forget to ensure a constant supply of cool, fresh water.
