🐾 Caring for Your Senior Dog: Tips to Keep Them Healthy and Happy

As our furry friends grow older, their needs change, and it’s important to adapt how we care for them to ensure they stay comfortable and happy in their golden years. 

Senior dogs often face challenges like reduced mobility, changes in vision and hearing, or even cognitive decline. But with a little extra attention, we can help them thrive! 

Here are some key tips: 

  • Regular Vet Checkups: Early detection of health issues is crucial as your dog ages. 

  • Tailored Diet: Provide a diet suited to their age and health needs to maintain a healthy weight. 

  • Gentle Exercise: Low-impact activities, like short walks, help keep their joints mobile. 

  • Keeping an eye on their weight, joint health, and behaviour ensures you catch any issues early. These small actions can make a big difference in their quality of life.
