Keeping Your Older Dog Young

If you have an older dog, you have been fortunate enough to make many happy memories. And even though time is passing, you can do a lot to help your dog continue to feel young. Here are 4 easy tips.

1. Keep yearly wellness appointments with you vet, and seek immediate advice from your vet for any unusual symptoms or behaviors. When there are problems, the sooner you seek help, the better chances are that the condition can be handled favorably.

2. Be sure to protect your dog monthly from heart worms, fleas and ticks. These are all easily done and avoiding disease and infections from these parasites can help your dog maintain an excellent quality of life as well as greatly increase life span.

3. Keep your dog fit by providing daily exercise. Walking, tossing the Frisbee, or swimming are all excellent ways to prevent your dog from becoming a couch potato. Be careful not to over feed your dog with table scraps or dog food. Your dog’s ideal weight is another area where advice from your vet is invaluable. Keeping your dog’s waistline trim will go a long way towards preventing diabetes and joint problems, and will keep him energized and ready to go.

4. Groom your dog regularly. Ask your vet about bath frequency and products that are safe. This will means less dog hair and dander, and will yield healthier skin. This also has the potential to lessen hot spots and use of antibiotics and steroids to control them.

And should your dog become incontinent, clean up with products that are safe for your dog, family, and the environment.
