As pets enter their senior years, their care needs evolve significantly. At Ansede Animal Hospital, we’re dedicated to providing the special care that older pets require. Understanding and addressing the changes associated with aging in pets is crucial for their well-being.
Understanding Age-Related Changes in Pets
As pets age, they may experience changes in mobility, dietary needs, and overall health. It’s common for older pets to develop arthritis, dental issues, and even changes in their cognitive function. Recognizing these signs early is vital for proper care. Our Senior Pet Care Guide provides comprehensive information on what to expect and how to manage these changes.
Customized Nutrition for Senior Pets
Dietary needs can change dramatically as pets age. Senior pets may require diets that are lower in calories but higher in certain nutrients. It’s also crucial to maintain a healthy weight to reduce stress on aging joints. Our nutrition experts can help tailor a diet plan for your pet’s specific needs. Learn more about senior pet nutrition at Nutritional Counseling for Pets.
Regular Health Check-ups are Key
Regular veterinary check-ups become even more important for senior pets. These visits allow for early detection and management of age-related health issues. Our team is equipped to provide comprehensive geriatric care, including bloodwork, dental care, and pain management. Schedule your senior pet’s next check-up through our Veterinary Services.
