Thanks to scientific research these days, our pups can live longer than ever before. Of course, we want our pooch to stay with us as long as possible. Here are a few tips on how to help your dog live his golden years to the maximum.
About ten or twenty years ago, we didn’t really know much about how to care for puppies. We’d often feed them table scraps or dry kibble. We know better now.
We are a lot more knowledgeable now and the big change has come in the way we feed our dogs. More and more puppy parents are stepping away from the dry kibble or low-cost grain-full food. We’ve found out that grain isn’t good for dogs. Instead, learning more about healthy nutrition has helped us pick out the healthy options in the supermarket that will ensure longevity for our pooch.
In addition to that, we’ve learned just how important it is to take care of our pooch’s teeth. That way we can avoid dental diseases that may turn into something more serious. That’s why we always recommend good dental care – and again, good food also helps with this.
Finally, a healthy dog is an active dog, so we need to make sure that we provide our pooch with a lot of exercise. Elderly dogs can be very prone to joint pain and arthritis, so we need to always ensure we provide them with ample exercise for better muscle, joint and bone strength.
Make sure to share the secret of giving a dog a longer life with your friends! too.
