Seasonal Care For Your Neo
Summer Care
 The most important thing for summer care is plunty of water and shade for the dog to get into. A dog house to get out of the sun, perhaps a child size swimming pool so the dog can get into and lay down. And lots and lots of fresh water. Becareful that the dog does not do excessive excersize. If you live in a warm climate you will probly notice your Neo digging to get down to the cool moist dirt, to lay down. You will notice your Neo is less likely to run and play in the exteme heat, Dehydration can occur if no water is available to the dog. Summer is the time of year fleas are prominant and bathing should be done on a regular basis.
 
Winter Care
In the cool weather you will notice your Neo will become playful and ready to play. In the extreme cold weather, your Neo will need a dry warm place to get out of the wind or snow. The exteme cold will also freeze your dogs water. Dehydration can occur if no water is available to the dog. There are electric heated water bowls available at pet stores, Wal-Mart, ect. (If your dog chews or if you fear your dog chewing the cord, you can bury it in the ground, placing a peice of wood over the top of the cord then replacing the dirt on top the board and cord.)
