Dawn Watson's Pet Tip of the Week: The Elderly Dog (cnbnewsnet)

 

                                                                The Elderly Dog

(cnbnewsnet)

    Fido is beginning to show his age. He’s sleeping more now, eating less, and his greetings are a bit more subdued. He may even be a little grouchy and prefer to lay quietly by your side instead of playing a rowdy game of fetch. How can you make him comfortable during the ‘last quarter’ of his life?   

   First, if you suspect that your dog has pain, see if your vet can recommend a medication that will make him feel better. Many meds for canines have been developed that are inexpensive and may make a huge difference in Fido’s quality of life.   

   Place dog beds or pillows generously. Your dog may enjoy a few new resting places so that he doesn’t need to travel so far seeking comfort. Allow him to sleep whenever he wants to; his body is worn out but he is still your best friend!   

   Give him softer food if his teeth are worn or missing. You may need to hand-feed him if his appetite is waning. Always remember that he is dependent on you for every facet of his existence.     

   If you see a dog in need or are unable to care for your dog due to financial restrictions, please call me. I can help.
