Senior Pet Care
Understanding Aging Animals
As animals age, they may experience a range of physical and health-related changes that can impact their quality of life and performance. Just like humans, senior pets may begin to feel the effects of aging, including joint stiffness, decreased mobility, and overall discomfort. This can be particularly challenging for athletic animals, whose rigorous training and activities place significant physical demands on their bodies.
Supporting Senior Athletes
For animals involved in athletic pursuits such as racing, rodeos, or even recreational activities, it’s essential to take proactive steps to preserve their health and well-being as they age. Without proper support and care, senior athletes may experience premature retirement or a decline in performance due to the cumulative effects of physical exertion and age-related changes.
