What should I feed my senior dog to support their aging joints and mobility?
As dogs age, joint health becomes a priority. A senior dog diet should include high-quality proteins, moderate fat levels, and added joint-supporting nutrients like glucosamine, chondroitin, and omega-3 fatty acids (from fish oil). Many senior dog formulas are specially designed with these ingredients. Avoid excess calories to prevent weight gain, which can stress joints. Always consult your vet or a canine dietician in Louisiana for personalized recommendations based on your dog’s breed, weight, and health conditions.
How often should I feed my senior dog, and should I change the feeding schedule?
Most senior dogs benefit from two smaller meals per day instead of one large meal, as this helps with digestion and keeps energy levels stable. Some older dogs may develop conditions like kidney disease or diabetes, which might require more tailored feeding schedules. Be sure to monitor your senior dog’s weight and energy levels, and adjust the feeding frequency and portion sizes accordingly with guidance from a veterinarian or pet nutrition expert.
How much does it cost to hire a canine dietician in Louisiana to create a senior dog diet plan?
The cost of hiring a canine dietician for a senior dog diet plan typically ranges from $75 to $250 per session, depending on the professional’s credentials and whether the consultation is in-person or virtual. Some dieticians in Louisiana offer comprehensive packages that include a full health assessment, custom meal plan, and follow-up support. Virtual consultations on platforms like Petworks are often more affordable and convenient for pet parents looking for expert guidance.
