It’s Time For Diet Care

Aging dogs need a tailor made diet to meet their needs. Every dog and his needs are different. It would be a good idea to meet up with your vet and understand your dogs changing diet. Based on his assessment the vet will suggest foods, brands and quantities to meet your pets needs.

Don’t Forget About Proper Exercise

This doesn’t mean you need to take your older dog on mountain hikes or long runs but it is important to understand that proper exercise for an aging pet is very important to his well being and an integral part of the pet care agenda. You should take your dog for short refreshing walks and maintain a less strenuous  playtime regime. Keeping your dog active is very important for his well-being.

Keep Their Weight In Check

Dogs tend to become obese as they age. Obesity leads to an increased pressure on their bone joints & internal organs and might ultimately lead to irreparable damage. This is what one actually needs to avoid. A tailor-made diet chart and a befitting exercise regime will ensure that your little Fiddo is as fit as a fiddle, even in his aging years.

The Clues Lie In Their Teeth

Apart from those mentioned above, the best way to keep your dogs health fit and fine is keeping a check on their teeth. Growth of tartar on teeth can lead to severe problems and ultimately result in letting dangerous bacteria get into their bloodstream and attack internal organs. Keep your dogs teeth and gums clean and sparkling by at home cleaning regime and regular professional clean-ups.
