Join us for Monthly Senior Dog Health and Nutrition Seminars with Dr. Adam of Healthy Pets!
September 4 Topic: DOGGONE PAIN
Most dogs conceal their pain – so how can I tell when my dog is in pain? How much pain? How can I help? Is my treatment plan working?
Living with pain is stressful, and contributes to a downward cycle in a dog’s health. Don’t let your dog suffer unneccesarily – find out how you can effectively alleviate pain and improve your dog’s longevity… chances are, if they are a senior dog they are feeling achy!
Dr Adam will share 5 signs to watch for, and explain the clues our dogs give to help us manage their pain from arthritis, dental disease or injury.
We will briefly review remedies like anti-inflammatory medicines, herbal formulas, surgery, dental extractions, cold laser treatment, acupuncture, supplements, and even upgrading to healthier food- all treatments that effectively helped the 3 case studies to be presented this evening: JJ, Ocean Blue, and Dinah feel so much better!
Bring Your Questions- we have reserved the final 30 minutes for Q&A time with Dr Adam
