English Samoyed, also known as English Setter and English Samoyed. English Samoyed is a graceful, gentle, stable and well-proportioned gun dog. It is most suitable to be a companion with children, loyal to the owner, and behaves in a candid and dignified manner. People also love it immensely because of its beautiful appearance and gentle personality. Modern English Samoyeds can be divided into two types: one type is the English Samoyed that lives in the highlands and is often used as a companion dog and show dog, and the other type is the English Samoyed that runs and plays in the fields to protect the home.
The English Setter originated in 19th century England and was called the Lavarack Setter for a long time. This is because the ancestors of this breed were the ancient Spanish Setters, and it was developed by Edward Lavarack.
English Samoyed is suitable for areas with wide activity range such as countryside, because it requires a lot of exercise, so it is not very suitable for urban life.

1. Can't bathe frequently
Giving the dog a bath, of course, can't be too frequent. Giving the dog a bath depends on the dog's hygiene. In the hot weather of summer, you can wash them once or twice more, while in winter you can reduce it by one or two times, but in general, not more than 5 times. Otherwise, it will damage their fur and skin!
2. Be diligent in brushing
Dogs shed almost every day, especially in spring and autumn. Seasonal shedding is more severe. To grow good fur, diligent brushing is an important step. Pet owners can use dedicated pet brushes to help the dogs remove the naturally shed fur and prevent tangling. Brushing once in the morning and evening for about five minutes is enough.
3. Sunbathe
Sunbathing is beneficial to the growth of the dog's fur and can make the fur more shiny. In addition, sunbathing can help kill bacteria. While sunbathing, pet owners can let the dogs exercise a little, which can help improve their physical fitness, promote blood circulation, and help grow healthier fur.

Poor fur condition is actually closely related to parasites. Parasites will absorb a large amount of nutrients from the dog's body and deprive them of nutrition, so deworming is essential. It is recommended to do both internal and external deworming. Also, deworming medicine can cause great harm to the dog's stomach, so it is recommended to feed them with probiotics regularly to relieve gastrointestinal discomfort.
5. Pay attention to diet
In order to have a beautiful fur, dogs must have a good nutritional foundation and pay attention to their daily diet. On the one hand, feed them nutritious and healthy dog food, choose a brand that is suitable for dogs and provides sufficient nutrients to meet their needs. On the other hand, you can also give them an appropriate amount of lean meat, cooked egg yolks, and vegetable oil.
