Pet health and wellness

  • Don't be embarrassed; you are not alone. We're a unique breed with an unrivalled love for animals. Any animal's health and well-being are similarly essential to humans. There are many options for taking care of your pets, so they can always be in a good mood. Adopting a pet is a dedicated task. You have to be as dutiful to them as much as you do to your own child.

    Take your dog outside and let them sniff to their hearts' content. A decompression walk is extremely enriching for them because it puts their nose to work and provides them with a lot of saline information to process. These walks are meant to be meandering rather than fast, making them ideal for senior dogs who may not be able to walk as fast or as far as they used to. 

    Allow your dog to bury their face in the fresh grass for as long as they want. To make it even more enjoyable, attach a long lead to the back of your dog's harness, allowing them to roam the spring meadows and follow the scents they discover (while still safely connecting to you via the leash).

    Make sure your groomer is aware of any medical conditions your dog may have. This way, they can ensure that dogs get needed breaks, are gentle with tender areas, and avoid parts of grooming that can cause unnecessary stress. Grooming appointments that include haircuts should be scheduled at least a month to six weeks in advance. Bath and blow-dry appointments are usually available within two to four weeks.

    Caring for Your Dog’s Paws:

    Every day, inspect your dog's paws for cracked or injured paw pads, as well as foreign objects such as rocks, sticks, or foxtail dawns. To provide traction on slippery floors, keep the fur growing between your dog's pads neatly trimmed. This is best accomplished with clippers. To avoid cuts between your dog's pads, ask your groomer to demonstrate how to do this safely. Keep your dog's nails as short as possible. Overgrown nails are painful to walk, can alter the bone structure of your dog's feet, and are prone to cracking and splitting.
