Dietary Changes to Keep Them Youthful and Active
to enhance their overall health.
Proper Nutrition for Optimal Health
As your pet ages, their dietary requirements may change. We’ll provide guidance on selecting senior-specific diets that support their health, including joint health, weight management, and organ function.
Weight Management
Maintaining a healthy weight is vital for senior pets. We’ll monitor your pet’s weight and body condition, adjusting their diet to support mobility and overall well-being.
Supplements and Nutraceuticals
Some senior pets may benefit from supplements or nutraceuticals that promote joint health and cognitive function. We’ll recommend appropriate supplements to enhance their vitality and comfort.
Advanced Therapies for Age-Related Health Conditions
If your companion is suffering from a common senior pet health condition, advanced therapies are available to support your aging pet. Laser therapy offers non-invasive pain relief by reducing inflammation and promoting healing, helping senior pets with arthritis and other chronic conditions stay mobile. Acupuncture is a holistic treatment that stimulates natural healing, alleviates pain, and improves blood flow. These therapies can work together or separately for a more active and comfortable life for your senior pet.
