Caring for Our Aging Pets
Let's face it...We're not getting any younger, nor are our pets! With age comes wisdom...and sometimes health issues! Let's discuss some ways to help our pets with some common aging issues so he lives a full and active life well into his senior years.
1. Dealing With Arthritis and Joint Health:One of the most common ailments in an aging pet is arthritis. Even mild arthritis, joint stiffness and pain can cause a slowing down of regular activity and even sleep issues because of discomfort. Add to this a few extra pounds due to the lack of regular activity and this can become a real health issue. To help your pet through the stiff joints that come with aging, keep them at an optimum weight. Feeding a high meat protein diet is essential to keeping the muscle while losing the fat. Make sure your pet's food is not loaded with carbs and grains and contains quality meat protein. For help in choosing a quality pet food, take a few minutes to view our videos.
2. Proper Hydration:Proper hydration is also key to joint health so make sure your grandma or grandpa pet has enough clean water daily. And, adding antioxidants which are good anti-inflammatories to your pet's diet as well. Keep in mind that addressing these issues in a natural, nutritional way can take a few weeks to turn things around. But, being aware of your pet's food and adding quality supplements are great steps toward joint health and you may again see that old spring in his step!
3. Brain Function:Both dogs and cats can develop learning and memory problems as they get age. Research shows that even our pets can have dementia. Antioxidants (Dinovite Liquid) and Omega-3 fatty acids (fish oil is best for this condition-SuprOmega Fish Oil) are valuable in keeping your dog’s brain functioning at its best.
4. Improving Your Senior's Digestion:Did you know that as your pet ages, so does his digestive tract? Well, of course it makes sense but what exactly does this mean? As your pet ages, digestion becomes a harder process for him. So, our aging pets need more and better quality protein in their daily diet. Now might be a good time to switch to or add canned food or a raw diet. These foods are easier to digest. And, adding probiotics and digestive enzymes is essential to a healthy digestive tract, giving your older dog or cat the tools they need to get the most from their food. Digestive health is key to immune system strength!
5. Healthy Kidney Function:Another issue that may come with aging in our pets is kidney disease. The kidneys work 'round the clock every single day for your pet's entire life. Over years, cells die off and scar tissue forms. And, in some cases, when much of the kidney function is gone, kidney disease occurs. This condition is more common in cats but can occur also in dogs.
Protein is not the enemy of aging kidneys. In fact, it's the foundation of a healthy diet for our carnivore pets. But, as our pet's age, foods that have higher moisture levels are easier on the kidneys. So, now might be a good time to switch from dry kibble to canned food, pouch food or raw food. Omega-3 fatty acids (fish oils) are extremely healthy for aging pets with kidney issues and new studies are leaning toward the use of probiotics for increased kidney function and support.
6. Good Teeth and Breath:Dental disease can begin with the onset of old age as well. A pet who has a mysterious loss of appetite may be reacting to pain inside his mouth. Make sure your pet's teeth are part of his checkup once each year or more often. And, spot check your pet's teeth and mouth on a regular basis.
7. Cancer:About 50% of dogs and cats 10 years old will develop cancer. Cancer, at it's deepest root is the result of immune system failure. The best preventative then is to keep the immune system healthy through feeding a high quality diet and avoiding over-vaccination. Keeping the immune system in peak condition is, of course, fundamental to good health overall. Besides exercise, fresh air, and great nutrition, there are supplements that can be used in conjunction with a quality diet to build immune system health. Antioxidants, Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids and probiotics are vital to the immune system.
