Restoring health after illness or guarding against harsh winter conditions can go a long way in the Well-Being of your pet.
Recovery and Boosting Immunity
Perhaps your pet had to be boarded while you and your family left home this past holiday season, or it was exposed to new animals (and potential illness) while visiting distant friends or relatives.
To boost immunity and Energy Levels after such conditions, consider supplementing your pet’s diet with PetAlive KC-Defense, an effective respiratory tonic to prevent against Kennel Cough and other Viral Infections.
Due to the closed quarters and large influx of new animals, confined areas such as kennels, catteries, and veterinary offices are often breeding grounds for infection.
Natural Remedies can also be used preventatively before such visits to protect against infection. Pet Alive PetHeal encourages rapid healing and Immunity & Liver Support promotes Vitality and balance in the body.
Similar to us, our pets’ immune systems function best when proper nutrition, rest, and exercise are in harmony. Therefore, remember to keep an eye on the amount of exercise your pet is getting.
Most likely, if your pet is kept indoors more, it will require less food. However, if it stays outdoors often, it may require additional food to burn calories needed to produce body heat.
Treating Minor Injuries or Infections
Snowy weather or abrupt changes in temperature can wreak havoc on tender paws and feet. Ice and salt used to treat sidewalks and roads can cause severe Stress and discomfort, so care should be taken to provide relief for your little ones.
Always wipe paws after a walk or spending time outdoors, and try an ointment or lotion to keep paws in top condition. PetAlive PawPaw conditions pets’ paws and pads, preventing bruising, cracking and infection, while encouraging healing of small cuts and wounds and reducing Inflammation.
Exposure to boarding places and harsh weather can also cause skin irritation. In addition, snow cover on the ground can conceal rough surfaces, debris, or other hazards. PetAlive Clenzor cleans and disinfects minor wounds, cuts, and scrapes, and also works to disinfect fungal infections or contact with poison ivy (whose oil can still be present this time of year on dead or decaying leaves).
Protecting Against the Elements
In addition to keeping your pet properly groomed (matted hair will not protect against the cold), you may wish to enhance your pet with PetAlive Skin and Coat Tonic, which improves skin functioning, strengthens the hair shaft and follicle, and treats dry, Scaly Skin often induced by strong indoor heating.
In addition, the tonic can accelerate healing of Skin Lesions and fungal infections, often caused or accelerated this time of year by ice-melting chemicals.
Also be aware of your pet’s surroundings. Many people think the garage is a safe haven for pets during cold winter months. However, antifreeze is a common hazard to pets, as both dogs and cats are attracted to its sweet flavor.
The chemical can be toxic in even small quantities, so be sure to check your car’s radiator and secure all supplies stored around the garage. Furthermore, be cautious about carbon monoxide. Never warm or start up your car in a confined space like the garage without first removing your pet.
Taking care of your pet is obviously a long-term commitment. However, taking a little extra care at the start of the new year can provide a strong foundation of health, wellness, and happiness for your pet in the year ahead.
