Consideraciones de Salud
The Valencian Terrier is a generally healthy breed with a lifespan of 12 to 14 years. However, like many small dogs, they may be predisposed to certain health issues, such as patellar luxation (kneecap displacement), dental problems, and allergies. Regular dental care, including professional cleanings and at-home brushing, is essential to prevent periodontal disease. This breed also benefits from routine veterinary check-ups to monitor joint health and screen for any hereditary conditions. Ensuring a balanced diet and maintaining a healthy weight can help prevent strain on their joints and overall well-being. Vaccinations, parasite prevention, and regular exercise are crucial for their ongoing health. Early socialization and training also contribute to their mental health and help prevent behavioral issues.
