Like people, dogs do
gray as they age. This is most noticeable in the area
around the muzzle. Aside from graying, an older dog’s
coat might also become thinner and duller. If a dog’s
coat suddenly starts showing his age, schedule a visit
to the veterinarian. Coat problems are sometimes
symptomatic of an illness or nutritional deficiency.
You can also give the
dog fatty acid supplements. Adding these supplements to
the diet will help restore the oils that are essential
to a healthy coat.
A pet’s skin will also
become drier and thinner with age, increasing the risk
of cuts, so you should check the pet more often at home
as he ages.

at all price levels. Also try Grizzly Salmon Oil
