ABOUT THE BOOK
The Forever Dog is a pathbreaking guide to teach
us how to delay aging and provide a long, happy, healthy life for our beloved
canine companions.
Dogs have been getting sicker and dying prematurely over the past
few decades from the same chronic diseases that afflict humans. Because our
pets can’t make health and lifestyle decisions for themselves, it’s up to pet
parents to make smart, science-backed choices for lasting vitality and health.
The program can be tailored to the genetic predisposition of
particular breeds or mixes. Medical breakthroughs have expanded our choices for
canine health—if you know what they are.
This definitive dog-care guide empowers us with the knowledge we
need to make wise choices, and to keep our dogs healthy and happy for years to
come.
The Forever Dog prescriptive plan focuses on
Diet and nutrition
Movement
Environmental exposures
Stress reduction
