Indian Spitz

The Indian Spitz is known for being child-friendly and will not react if youngsters disturb or annoy them.

They get along well with other dogs and animals as well.

Despite their hunting propensity, they rarely pursue smaller animals, though don't be surprised if they chase down a dove or two!

Despite the fact that they are sociable creatures who are incredibly friendly, socialisation begins at a young age and is critical for appropriate social behaviour.

The Indian Spitz, like most breeds, requires at least one daily walk. They normally tyre themselves out by playing around and don't require any assistance.
They must obtain enough exercise to satisfy their inquisitive and lively natures.
Unlike huge dogs, they are content to live in little spaces, but no one dislikes having more! If they get adequate exercise, you may raise an Indian Spitz puppy in an apartment without any problems. Although they dislike being alone, leaving them in an apartment for long periods of time is not a good idea.
The Indian Spitz is a loving, active, intelligent, communicative, and loyal dog breed.
Is it simple to train an Indian Spitz? Yes, it is true!
They are quick learners and will quickly pick up any tricks you teach them.
They are simple to train because they learn commands quickly.
They are a boisterous breed that requires social interaction.

They cannot stay alone for long periods of time, so leaving them at home alone may not be such a good idea.
They are apartment-friendly and can live in a small house.
The Indian Spitz should be fed two meals per day, with up to three and a half cups of dry dog food.
The amount required by a dog is determined by its size, activity level, age, and other factors.
Having two smaller meals rather than one large meal can aid in the prevention of gas and bloating.
If the stomach twists and cuts off the blood supply, this can become a medical emergency.
Keep an eye on your dog's weight, as obesity can shorten his or her life and increase the risk of other health problems.
Consult your veterinarian about your dog's nutritional requirements to get recommendations tailored to your pet.
The Indian Spitz enjoys keeping themselves clean, but brushing their coats on a regular basis keeps them in excellent shape.
Unless they get themselves really dirty, they don't need to bathe very often.
The Indian Spitz has an issue with shedding; they grow a thick coat throughout the winter and then shed it at the end of the season.
If you don't want their hair all over your furniture, you'll have to comb them yourself or take them to the vet on a regular basis.
Apart from that, they only require basic grooming such as brushing their teeth and having their nails clipped.
A nice piece of news for you is that they like grooming and will not be a nuisance to you or your veterinarian.
