Manage Their Weight
When it comes to pets, obesity is generally defined as when an animal’s body weight is at least 20 percent greater than its optimal body weight. Obesity in pets is incredibly common and can have devastating effects in the long term. To manage your pet’s weight, ensure they are getting plenty of exercise and are consuming a protein and nutrient-rich diet.
Regular Vet Appointments
Even if your pet seems happy and healthy, regular vet appointments are important for monitoring your pet’s health and catching any that could be potentially harmful to their health early on. Making sure your pet has the proper vaccinations is the number one thing to do for your pet to protect its health.
Dog-Proof Your Home
Ideally, you want to dog-proof your home well before you bring a dog into the picture. Consider the placement of things like electrical cords, medications, and household cleaners, which are harmful to your pet’s health. If you have a yard, consider installing a fence.
