Dog health is simple, so stick with the basics

Dog health is not complicated and clean living is the trick. It's not that you can control all health issues by wise diet choices and ample exercise but these are the basics that we are talking about. Get familiar with and learn about your particular dog breed or breed mixture; predisposed health risks pertain to certain dog breeds such as incidence of bladder cancer in Scottish Terriers are 20 times more frequent than other dog breeds.

Dog health is important to your pooch. A healthy dog is far more likely to be happy and reach old age. Choose organic foods with human grade ingredients, and avoid all foods with chemicals, preservatives, and pesticides. Be sure to feed your dog the appropriate amount of food, overweight dogs are more likely to suffer from arthritis and diabetes.

Dog health and exercise are essential. Again, know your breed of dog. Some dogs require more exercise than others. A dog that requires plenty of exercise should not be housebound but rather should be taken on walks and let run off leash at dog parks. Also, give your dog lots of tender loving care. Dogs are pack animals and need socialization as well as a safe and cozy place to rest and call their own.
