According to dog breeding professionals, Gu Mu had to break his tail when he was a child, but now this habit is not necessary, and now in the United States, in addition to the need to break the tail of the race-level Gu Mu, as a pet, the situation of tail breakage is not common.

However, because it is too smart to have its own ideas, for the harmony of the whole family, it is still necessary to carry out special training for the ancient shepherd dog, and to establish some "rules" for it. (Image from Oriental IC)

From combing the fur to wiping the mouth after each meal, these require extra attention from the shoveler, so raising an ancient shepherd is also a test of the ability and patience of the shoveler. (Image from Oriental IC)
Gu Mu is very clingy, so if the shoveler goes to work, remember to keep it in a larger cage, otherwise when you come back, the house may not be demolished into what it will be! (Image from Oriental IC)
Of course, there are pros and cons, under careful care, taking a big guy like Gu Mu out, it must be a very windy thing, but because of the large size and strength, when going out to walk the dog must bring helpers, especially the sister paper, it is likely that there will be a situation that cannot be pulled.

Gu Mu's way of expressing friendship is to pounce on people, want to come to such a big guy enthusiastic pounce over, must be prepared in advance, in case of injury, in addition, they also love to take the shoveler's hand in their mouths, this naughty guy, "eat hands" also eat others!
