Preparing Your Dogs for Fall

As summer winds down, cooler mornings and shorter days can affect your dog’s health and behavior. Here’s what to watch for and how to keep your furry friends happy and healthy:

🍂 Joint & Mobility Health

Cooler weather can trigger stiffness, especially in older dogs. Consider joint supplements and a warm, comfortable bed.
Gentle stretching and controlled exercise help maintain mobility during seasonal changes.

🍂 Allergies & Skin Care

Fall allergens like dust, mold, and ragweed may make dogs itchy. Regular grooming and allergy support can help.
Monitor skin and coat condition, as dry indoor heating can exacerbate dryness or irritation.

🍂 Energy & Mental Stimulation

Shorter daylight may reduce outdoor activity. Indoor puzzle toys, training, and interactive play can keep energy balanced.
Routine feeding and consistent daily schedules help reduce stress during seasonal changes.

🍂 Takeaway

Fall is a season of preparation. Small adjustments—joint support, allergy care, and mental stimulation—can keep your dog comfortable and happy as the season changes.
