How to Take Care of a Senior Dog
1. Be sure he gets plenty of exercise, whether it is walking or playing fetch. Feed
him a high quality, nutritious dog food that has quality protein, essential fatty acids, antioxidants and probiotics for good health. You may need to cut down on the amount of food or feed a weight loss formula since his metabolism has slowed down.2. Consider giving a Skin and Coat Supplement to help with dry and itchy skin. Joint Supplements can help stiff joints or help to prevent or postpone the stiffness that comes with arthritis. The earlier you intervene in the joint aging process, the better.
3. Good nutrition can prevent many problems of aging for dogs just as it does with humans. Talk to your vet about dental care you can give at home whether it is brushing his teeth or giving special dental chews or treats.
Observe your dog for signs of aging and learn how to take care of him as he ages.
Your dog will still give you much joy in his golden years and he can have a better life as a senior dog with proper care.
