TOP 10 RESOLUTIONS FOR YOUR PETS 1 Spay or neuter. Perhaps the greatest gift you can give your pet, spay/neuter provides a variety of health and be- havioral benefits for dogs and cats. 2 Lose the weight. Over half of our nation’s pets are overweight or obese. By feeding scheduled meals, not sharing table scraps, and upping the exercise, you can put your pets on a healthier path. 3 Brush up on dental health. By age 3, most dogs and cats have periodontal disease – but it’s preventable with home care, dental exams and cleanings. 4 Banish bad behaviors. Have a destructive dog with separation anxiety? A cat with litterbox issues? Let’s come up with an action plan to help both of you. 5 Protect them. Microchipping is the most reliable and permanent form of identification for your pet. But having a chip placed is just the first step; it must be reg- istered with your contact information up- to-date. 6 Pamper them. Regular brushing controls shedding, prevents mats and distributes healthy oils. Nail care is also important for preventing injury. 7 Get moving. Enjoy more walks, explore new neighborhoods, play fetch, or pick up a new laser pointer, cat tree or feather toy for your cat. 8 Teach new tricks. Pets of all ages can learn new tricks, stimulating the body and brain. 9 Build a relationship with yours truly. As partners in your pet’s wellness, we’re here for you in sickness and in health.
