Just like people, dogs feel much better when they are in good health. But unlike people, dogs can’t take care of themselves. To keep your favorite furry friend on the track of being healthy and better living, follow these tips:
1- Exercise builds efficient bodies
2- Protect your smiles
You probably remember to brush your own teeth, but doggie dental care often goes by the wayside. For dogs that are temperamental about pet owners or vets touching their teeth, a simple and effective solution can be found using a new type of probiotics, Teddy’s Pride Pet Oral Care Probiotic that has been designed specifically for the oral care needs of dogs and cats. These probiotics can be used in addition to brushing or as a stand-alone oral care routine.
3- Read food labels
Unlike people, dogs can’t read food labels. They are dependent upon their owners to give them the best possible nutrition. For dogs, make sure that the first ingredient listed is, for example, “Chicken,” not “Chicken Flavor” or “Dog Food with Chicken” items that list the name of the meat contain 95 percent of that ingredient, while the “with” designation means that the food only contains 3 percent of chicken or beef.
4- Visit the vet regularly.
