●
Play more.
Finding doggy playtime can be difficult with today's busy schedules — however, playtime is when your dog bonds with you. Enjoying this time with your dog also delivers double the health benefits, helping both you and your dog feel happier and calmer.

Explore new places.
Like you, your pooch gets bored with the "same old, same old." Banish boredom by changing your dog walking routine monthly, finding new and exciting places to visit like a nearby beach, hiking trail, or dog-friendly historical or cultural heritage site.

Improve your doggy’s
diet.
You've scrutinized your diet, have you done the same with your dog's? Don't just dump store-bought dry food in your dog's bowl. Look more closely, making sure your pup is getting the right amount of critical nutrients from quality food. While a young dog's metabolism is more forgiving of your dietary faux pas, these will eventually take a toll on the health and weight of your pooch as he ages. Talk to your vet about recommendations on the best diet for your dog's weight and age, improving his diet along with your own to ensure a healthy, happy life side-by-side.

Put health at the
forefront.
Take your pooch's healthcare seriously, scheduling regular dog grooming sessions to keep his coat and skin healthy. Don't neglect tooth brushing, which will become increasingly important as your canine companion ages. In addition, schedule regular checkups with your vet, staying current on preventive treatments such as rabies vaccinations and flea, tick, and heartworm prevention.
