Do I know you? Dog Dementia

This is an important area and something I am pleased to be able to highlight. When asked by the Editor of The West’s Habitat on the most common pet problems in dogs for in The West’s Habitat on Friday, 7 November 2014’s edition, dog dementia was in the top three. I like to think of it as ‘Aging with grace’. If your dog shows any of the following signs dog dementia may be taking hold:

  1. Getting stuck in corners;
  2. Appears disoriented;
  3. Has ‘accidents’ in the house;Dog dementia
  4. Wakes in the middle of the night;
  5. Having difficulty recognising family members

You may be surprised to know that 1 in 3 dogs between 11-12 years and to 3 in 4 dogs 15 years and over suffer dog dementia. Furthermore,  what passes off as ‘normal’ ageing is now treated with targeted therapies. As a result, you can indeed teach an old dog new tricks and keep the brain active with training games and food toys.
