Building Immunity

4 cards · about a minute

  1. It is built in the gut

    A large share of the immune system sits in the wall of the gut, which is why feeding well is not a separate project from staying well.

  2. Sleep is not idleness

    An adult dog sleeps twelve to fourteen hours a day and needs to; a house that never quietens is a house where a dog never fully repairs.

  3. Move every day

    Daily moderate movement supports a dog better than one hard weekend does, the pattern matters more than the intensity.

  4. Supplements are a top-up

    Nothing in a jar rescues a poor diet, and several supplements interact with medication, so check with your vet before adding anything to a dog under treatment.
