Why Are Potatoes Important To Elderly Dogs?



Have you noticed your senior dog looking thin despite him having regular meals? As your dog ages it can be difficult to keep adequate weight on your old but faithful friend. Here is a helpful tip I got from one of the Not 2 Shaggy family members. Add cooked potatoes in with your dog's food. It will boost his calorie intake while being easy to digest. A few weeks of this practice and you might notice a plump youthful profile on your senior canine. We hope this tip helps pet parents of elderly pups provide quality care for this special population.
