5 New Year’s Resolutions

Resolution #1

Partake in More Exercise

In order for correct weight maintenance, or indeed to shed a few of those pounds gained through all those Christmas doggie treats, an increase in activity is sometimes necessary.

Regular walks at varying speeds all the way up to a run is a great cost-effective way to achieve your weight goals not only for your dog but also maybe for yourself. You can bond with your canine friend and work towards achieving weight loss or maintenance together.

Resolution #2

Schedule a Regular Checkup at Your Veterinarians

Regular checkups are of great importance for your dog and should be carried out at least once a year in order for early detection and treatment of any ailments or potential problems health wise.

 Resolution #3

Always Measure Your Pet’s Food

Humans and canines alike can be prone to a gradual creep upwards in body weight, in particular at this time of year, and also just generally over time. 54% of dogs are classified as overweight currently in the US which is a huge health and welfare concern for our beloved pets.

Accurate measurement of your dog’s foods is a preventative measure to stop overfeeding. Read carefully the instructions on your dog’s food and accurately measure your pet’s daily allowance.
