For the past weeks, we’ve been sharing the importance of preventive health/care and how you can make your pets stay healthy and happy. The healthier and happier your pets, the longer lives they’ll lead which means more time together for you and them.
I am a proud pet parent of a 13 yr old Golden Retriever. Sugar is a healthy and happy dog. As a conscious pet parent, I make sure to implement these three simple steps to keep her healthy and happy.
Steps to Healthy Pets
1) Annual Vet Visit : I can not emphasize enough the importance of taking your pets for their annual check up. Missing your pet yearly vet exam is like you not visiting your doctor for over 5 years. You and your pet both benefits from a vet visit. It allows your vet to get know your pet better.
Your vet can provide you guidance and help spot conditions before they become a serious health issue. Keep in mind: Both cats and dogs have the same needs and benefits from an annual vet visit.
2) Mealtime: Choosing the right healthy food is important for your pet. Proper nutritional is the key for a healthy life. Keep in mind: Your pet plays a critical role in selecting the best food as there’s no food that is best for all pets.Select food designed for your pet’s life stage and health conditions.
A brand like Hill’s Science Diet offers several foods for your pet’s special nutritional needs. To assist pet parent, Hill’s Pet Nutrition is offering a $10 off promotion on selected Hill’s Science diet products. Download the rebate: for dogs and for cats.

3) Little Extras: Providing mental stimulation to your pet is just as important as their physical health needs. It is crucial that playtime must be a part of your pet’s daily life. Healthy pets favor cleanliness too, thus include a grooming routine. Pets love being rewarded with tasty treats. These special extras not only bring joy to both of you and your pet, it strengthens your bond with each other.
Having pets bring immeasurable amounts of love and joy to your life. Providing your pets the right care can ensure healthy pets and happy lives.
