Unlock the Secret Struggles Your Aging Dog Isn’t Telling You—And How to Fix Them Before It’s Too Late
If your dog is showing signs of confusion or disorientation, it’s important to keep changes to a minimum. For example, keep furniture in the same position, keep your dog’s food and water bowls and bedding in the same spot, and stick to a consistent routine.
Be adaptable and cater to your senior dog’s new needs. For example, if they no longer like anyone coming near them while they eat, respect this new behavior and keep pets and people away from them at dinner time.
Keep them active. A senior dog may not have the same energy levels as younger dogs, but it’s still important for them to exercise and be physically active (e.g., short daily walks) as well as mentally stimulated (e.g., puzzle toys, play hide and seek). Just adapt to their slower pace.
