In this episode of the Family Pet Podcast, the hosts discuss the different life stages of dogs and the specific health concerns associated with each stage. They cover topics such as vaccinations, dental care, diet and exercise, and joint health. They emphasize the importance of regular veterinary check-ups and preventive care to ensure the overall health and well-being of dogs. 

Takeaways

Dogs go through three main life stages: puppy, adult, and senior.
Puppies require vaccinations, proper diet, socialization, and prevention of dietary indiscretions.
Adult dogs need annual vaccinations, dental care, proper diet and exercise, and regular blood work.
Senior dogs may experience joint and arthritis issues, so joint protectants and labradoras can help with pain management.
Regular veterinary check-ups and preventive care are crucial for dogs at every life stage.
