Cold days also come for your dog, we help you to know what you should take into account when temperatures drop.

Be aware of the size, age and health condition of your pet and you will know how much you should protect him from the cold.

Not all veterinarians agree in keeping them warm because they have a biological condition in their coat and the coat prepares them adequately for the inclement weather. However, there are professionals who argue that there are differences with trained dogs. They live indoors, with heating and the change of temperature could affect them, so it would be better to put them something that protects them from the cold.

What you DO have to take into account: if it is a puppy, if it is old, if it suffers from any disease, if it is a small breed, has little or short hair or if it often suffers from respiratory problems. If he has any of these conditions, he will suffer in winter, so keep him warm, avoid getting him wet or cold water, keep him in warm places as long as possible and when going for a walk, keep him in sunny moments.

We hope that our advice works for you and that your furry friends manage to come out of these cold days undefeated and healthy. If you want to contact the GESPETFOOD veterinary team, write us at info@gespetfood.com and follow us on our social networks for more tips.
