Pet Tips for the Month:
*Ever wonder why dogs are so susceptible to developing arthritic conditions?
Arthritis occurs with age in dogs as well as in people. One of the most important things that dog owners can do to delay the onset or reduce the severity of arthritis is to keep their dogs lean. Excess body weight not only adds stress to the joints but also is associated with an increase in inflammation. In obese dogs, the fat cells secrete chemicals that actually increase inflammation in the joints, causing or aggravating arthritis. In addition to weight control, gentle exercise and a diet that contains fish oil or supplements of glucosamine may help.

* Feline kidney disease cannot be cured, but it can be treated. With appropriate medication and simple in-home therapies, you can significantly slow its progression, extending your cat's life and making it more enjoyable. If you notice that your cat is drinking and urinating more frequently than usual, promptly take her to the vet for blood work. If she is diagnosed with kidney disease, ask about the following approaches to managing the condition:
| • |
Adopting a low-protein diet |
| • |
Eating wet or moist food instead of dry |
| • |
Doing fluid therapy (subcutaneous fluids) |
| • |
Maintaining proper acid-base balance |
| • |
Using appetite stimulants |
| • |
Taking blood pressure medication |
| • |
Undergoing hormone therapy for anemia |
