October is Pet Wellness Month
October is Pet Wellness Month! Of course, we know pet owners love their dogs and want them to be happy and healthy year-round. But this time of year is just a good chance to give a little extra appreciation to your pooch.
Celebrate the month by building awareness about the things your vet wishes that you knew.
Pet Wellness Care
It is a well-known fact that most dog owners would do anything to keep their furry friends active and healthy. There are some basic health tips though, that many pet parents don’t know. Let’s take a quick look at a few things that are important to your dog’s everyday health.
Proper Nutrition
Just making sure they have enough food to eat isn’t enough to keep your dog healthy. It is important to ensure that your dog food ingredients are a good source of protein, vitamins, and minerals. Each of these supports your dog’s system. Check out our healthy, meal plan options with high-quality ingredients.
Don’t Let Them Get Overweight
While you may love your dog no matter what size they are, letting them get overweight can be dangerous to their health. Obesity in dogs can cause heart failure and cancer, as well as ligament and disc problems.
Mood Matters
A dog’s happiness will affect its overall wellness. When left alone too often without attention or stimulation, dogs can actually become depressed. Depression can manifest in lethargy or destructive and other poor behaviors.
Pet Wellness Clinic
Part of keeping your pet healthy is ensuring you have regular access to veterinary and behavioral advice. However, this doesn’t mean you have to spend thousands of dollars a year on vet bills.
