#10 You should check his ears weekly for redness and bad smell to catch infections early.
When checking your dog's ears, wipe them out with a cotton ball soaked in a gentle PH-neutral ear cleaner to prevent infection. Do not insert anything into the ear canal; only clean the outer ear.
#11 Start getting your Pembroke used to being brushed and examined from a young age.
Frequently touch its paws - dogs are sensitive to paws - and check his mouth.
#12 Make grooming a positive experience, filled with praise and reward, and set the stage for light vet exams and other manipulations when the dog is an adult.
