How Did I Keep My Dog Healthy for 18 Years? Here's the Secret!

If you're wondering how to raise a long-lived dog, here's what worked for me: 1.Vaccinate regularly – I kept up with yearly vaccines for the first few years, then switched to every two years after age five. Always check for enough antibodies and re-vaccinate if needed. 2.Balanced diet – Don’t just leave dry food out all the time. I mixed in fresh meat, veggies, and homemade meals. But avoid human foods like salty, spicy dishes and definitely no onions, grapes, or chocolate! 3.Immediate vet care when sick – If my dog wasn’t eating, I went to the vet right away. Don’t trust online remedies—timely medical attention is key! 4.Be patient and persistent – If your dog is sick, don’t give up! Dogs have a strong will to live, but they need your support to stay strong. My dog is 18 and still thriving! 💪🐾What’s your advice for keeping dogs healthy? #HealthyDog #PetCareTips #DogLongevity
