Canine Welfare: A dog is in a good state of welfare if it is healthy, comfortable, well-fed, safe, able to express innate behaviors, and does not suffer from pain, fear, or distress.
 
Requirements for Good Welfare: These include disease prevention, veterinary treatments, adequate shelter, responsible management, proper nutrition, and humane treatment.
 
Behavior: Behavior depends on the dog’s age, breed, and previous experiences. Changes in behavior can be indicators of health problems.
 
It is essential to provide opportunities for play and interaction, avoiding boredom, which can lead to inappropriate behaviors.
 
Exercise and Training: Dogs need regular exercise and activities suitable for their age, breed, and health.
 
Training, especially when based on positive reinforcement, improves their quality of life and avoids methods that cause pain or fear.
 
Protection Against Pain, Disease, and Suffering: Preventing diseases through vaccination and veterinary care is fundamental.
 
Behavioral changes, such as alterations in eating habits, can be signs of illness or pain and should be evaluated by a veterinarian.
 
Microchip identification facilitates the recovery of a dog in case of loss or injury.
 
Recommendations for Breeders and Owners: Use only functionally and clinically healthy dogs for breeding, avoiding hereditary diseases.
 
Ensure that breeders and owners are informed about the FCI guidelines concerning the welfare and care of dogs.
