With the temperature dropping quite significantly, it's important to keep your dog active and warm during the winter months, especially senior dogs. In this blog, we will discuss why and give some helpful tips.
When the cold weather sets in it makes it can make it very hard to get motivated for walkies. As we know, colder weather affects joints which can make us and our furry friends reluctant to get much exercise however, it is still important to get those joints working to avoid becoming stiff.
For dogs suffering from arthritis and for senior dogs, it's important they continue to get exercise to avoid the joints becoming more stiff. If your dog is showing signs of pain or discomfort do consult your vet before taking them out on a walk.
When taking your senior dog out in the cooler weather, you can use a coat to keep their body heat in. If possible, it's best to avoid them jumping in puddles as the cold water with the cold wind can cause their joints to cease. If your dog cannot resist a puddle, make sure you have a towel in your car or bag to dry them off as soon as the walk is over.
Once home, make sure there is somewhere warm for your dog to rest with plenty of blankets. Keeping warm after a cold walk is essential, especially for senior dogs.
