Even with the utmost care, some dogs experience persistent itching, leading to discomfort and frustration for both pets and their owners. One potentially significant contributor can be your dog's diet. Fortunately, there's a solution that might surprise you – a plant-based diet! Switching your canine companion to a plant-based diet can potentially alleviate itchy skin and promote overall well-being.
Maintaining a healthy weight is crucial for our furry companions' overall well-being. If you've chosen a plant-based diet for your dog, you might wonder how to manage their weight effectively. With the right approach, you can help your pet maintain a healthy weight while enjoying the benefits of a balanced and complete plant-based diet.
As more pet owners embrace plant-based diets for ethical and health reasons, it's essential to ensure that our furry companions receive all the necessary nutrients for optimal health. Here's a focus on a couple key ingredients and some creative (and yummy) ways to make mealtime more exciting using Vivus Pets' treats.
For some dogs, such as those with very small or sensitive mouths, or those with pain from tooth or jaw conditions, these hard chews may not be suitable. Thankfully, Vivus has soft chewable dental supplements so healthcare for these dogs is not left behind!
Glucosamine and chondroitin are two complementary nutrients found ubiquitously in joint supplements. Both nutrients are typically derived from animal products, and as such run the risk of causing allergic responses in sensitized individuals. However, plant-based alternatives are available!
Dogs are intelligent animals, and when left unstimulated, they can become bored, which can lead to destructive behaviors and even health problems. So, how can you cure your dog's boredom and provide them with a fulfilling life? Here are some tips to help you out.
Not only can treats make training sessions more enjoyable and provide a bonding experience with our fur-mily, but they can also provide numerous health benefits. When it comes to the well-being of your canine companion, we think Vivus' Plant-Based Healthy Dog Treats are a cut above the rest.
Cataracts, a common condition in humans, can also affect our furry companions. A cataract occurs when a portion, or the entirety, of the lens of the eye becomes cloudy or completely opaque, typically due to alterations in water balance or proteins within the lens. While cataracts can develop at any age, they are more commonly observed in older dogs.
Canine Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome (CCD or CDS), sometimes referred to as 'doggy dementia', is a neurodegenerative condition that commonly affects aging dogs. Just like humans, dogs can experience cognitive decline as they get older. While there is no cure for CCD, there are options available to manage the condition and improve the quality of life for affected dogs.
