Every dog owner dreams of enjoying communication with their pet for as long as possible.
Modern veterinary medicine has many ways to increase a dog's life expectancy, based on scientific research and many years of experience.
Proper nutrition
A balanced diet is the basis for a dog's longevity. Food should contain the necessary amount of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals.
It is important to consider the age, breed and activity level of the animal when preparing the menu.
Physical activity
Regular walks and exercise help maintain your dog's muscle tone.
Active games stimulate blood circulation, strengthen the immune system and prevent the development of obesity.
The duration and intensity of classes should be selected individually.
Veterinary prevention
Timely vaccination prevents the development of dangerous diseases. Regular check-ups with a veterinarian help identify problems at an early stage.
Preventive treatment against parasites protects the dog's body from additional stress.
Hygiene and care
Regular bathing, brushing teeth and ears prevent the development of infections.
The condition of the coat requires special attention, since various pathogens can penetrate through the skin.
Claws need to be trimmed regularly to prevent joint problems.
Psychological comfort
Stress negatively affects the health and life expectancy of a dog.
A calm atmosphere in the house, the absence of conflicts and regular communication with the owner create favorable conditions for the longevity of the pet.
Weight control
Excess weight significantly reduces a dog's life expectancy.
Proper portioning of food and control over the amount of treats help maintain the animal's optimal body weight.
Water quality
Clean drinking water plays an important role in your dog's metabolism.
Regular water changes and the use of filters prevent harmful substances and bacteria from entering the body.
Environmental safety
Protection from injuries and accidents increases your dog's chances of a long life.
Keep your pet away from dangerous objects, chemicals and potentially poisonous plants.
Genetic factors
Breed characteristics influence a dog's life expectancy.
Owners of purebred animals should pay special attention to the prevention of hereditary diseases specific to a particular breed.
