What problems should be paid attention to in meat dog breeding?

Meat dogs are specially slaughtered for people to eat dogs, mainly meat, with small investment, quick results, high efficiency and other advantages, in the process of breeding, diets should be reasonably matched according to digestive characteristics and living habits to ensure comprehensive nutrition, good palatability and high digestibility. Let's take a look at what problems should be paid attention to in meat dog breeding.

Raise according to consumption habits

The sales of dog meat is greatly affected by the season, the seasonal consumption is strong, and the market demand is different in different regions. On the one hand, because of the popular habit of eating dog meat in winter, and small sales in spring, summer and autumn, there is a large backlog of meat dogs and increase the cost of raising. On the other hand, under the influence of national customs, there are many places where there is no habit of eating dog meat, consumer demand is limited, and the dog meat market needs further guidance.

Think twice before introduction

The profits mentioned by the breeders are calculated on the basis of meat breeders. For example, in terms of commodity production and the increasing popularity of meat dogs, whether each group of meat dogs will still have a profit of several thousand yuan. Farmers still need to think about it before raising meat dogs on a large scale. Under normal circumstances, the price of meat dogs will decline after large-scale production, and the profits now expected will be difficult to achieve. As an emerging special breeding industry, meat dog industry has a certain market potential and will continue to develop, but due to the limitations of meat dog breeds, feed, feeding technology, market demand and other aspects, meat dog industry can not be blindly involved in order to avoid unnecessary economic losses.

The environment of the kennel should be good.

The kennel should be quiet and dry, well drained, ventilated and sunny, warm in winter and cool in summer. Generally, it is best to build a fence in orchards and mulberry orchards (you can also use empty houses, pig pens, sheep pens, etc.). Generally, the area of each column is 10-12 square meters, with a height of not less than 1.5 meters. Kennels should be equipped with disinfection pools, sewers and other facilities and places for meat dog activities and sun exposure.

Introduction should be investigated in many ways.

As a result of raising dogs heating up too fast, it is inevitable to "stir-fry dogs" phenomenon, resulting in uneven quality of dog seedlings, a great loss. Therefore, after going to the introduction site, we should not be afraid of trouble to investigate in many ways. First of all, we should make an on-the-spot investigation to several large and formal meat dog farms or bases to see whether the scale of the dog farm, the number of basic breeds of dogs, the operating license, the technical force, the archival records of dog materials and whether the base has the ability to recycle products, and so on. Then according to their own financial resources, material resources, technical level, to determine the scale of breeding and the number of introduction.

Choose a good variety

Meat dogs must gain weight, have a large body, produce more meat and have good meat quality in order to achieve good economic benefits. At present, most of the dogs used for meat production are binary or ternary hybrid dogs with local rhubarb dogs and big black dogs as female parents and large dogs such as shepherds, Japanese wolves, blackbacks and Great Dane as male parents, which can only be regarded as the use of heterosis. Therefore, the introduction should look at the archives, pedigree records, parents' individual size, production performance, puppy development, posture characteristics, and so on.
