Senior pets can play with many of the same toys as young pets can. The key difference is making sure you know your pets limits. Consider if your senior pet has sensitive teeth, reduced vision or poor hearing then it is important to choose appropriate toys.
If your senior pet struggles with joint pain, fetch for a dog may no longer be an option. If they’re having dental issues, chew toys may be out of the question. Be conscious of your pets capabilities, and keep your home stocked with toys appropriate for his age and health. Some good options for senior pets toys include plush toys, with or without squeakers. These soft toys don’t require any tough chewing for example you can throw them and if your senior dog is in the mood for fetch, and if not, they’re great for your dog to cuddle. If you don’t mind a little noise.
