Instructions
Take a good look at what you're feeding your dog. Not all dog foods are created equal. Some dog foods are really good and some are really bad.
Check the dog food labels to see what exactly the food is made of. It's important to understand that your dog eats the same food day after day. Some dog food is loaded with chemical preservatives, dyes, article colors and fillers. Not an extremely healthy diet for your dog.
Check Resources below to find a list of websites that can give you more information on providing your dog with a healthy diet. The sites listed are a guideline to help you. Education is the key to finding a good diet for your dog.
Provide your dog with clean, fresh water. Some tap water is loaded with toxins and can harm your dog's health.
Provide your dog with a sufficient amount of exercise; when it comes to improving your dog's health, exercise is a must. Before engaging in any strenuous exercise though, get a complete checkup from your vet.
Provide your dog with plenty of mental stimulation. Dogs are extremely social animals and need to interact with people and other dogs. By giving your dog some exercise and mental stimulation you can greatly improve your dog's health.
Supplement your dog's food. If you feed dog food from a bag or can your dog will likely be deficient in some vitamins and enzymes. I recommend a supplement called Barley Dog. There are a lot of supplements on the market and you may have to do some research to find out what your dog needs.
