Senior Dog Beds
Here are a few tried and true items I purchased for my senior fur baby.
An orthopedic Bed is a must for my senior baby! A comfortable sofa like bed, yet pressure relief on his joints. This bed is the perfect height for him to step up on and rest. Your senior baby would love this type of bed.
Bedsure® Orthopedic Bolster Dog Sofa Bed, Washable Large Dog Bed Waterproof
This cool orthopedic crate mat is perfect for your senior dog crate. I no longer use a crate so I have mine near the sofa so that he can cuddle up next to us.
Orthopedic Dog Crate Mat
We love this bed for our senior dog! He has his own plush luxe lounger in our bedroom, and I think this one is his favorite!
FurHaven Ultra Plush Luxe Lounger Orthopedic Pet Bed
Senior Dog Travel Needs
Things I use for our vet, grooming or travel visits.
Being that I can no longer pick up our senior baby. This ramp is perfect for him to go up and down for our vet and grooming appointments or if we must travel with him. It’s easy to store and light weight to carry.
PetSafe UltraLite Portable Bi-Fold Automotive Pet Ramp for Dogs and Cats Up to 150 lb., 62 in.
Senior Dog Feeding Needs
Things I would recommend for your senior dog.
I bought this pet feeder bowl to prevent the sliding of his bowl on my floor while my fur baby eats his food. The grips are perfect for this bowl to stay in place. However, I still use a mat for backup.
Top Paw® Elevated Double Diner Pet Feeder
The perfect height for my fur baby! He doesn’t have to bend down so far to eat his food or drink his water. It’s easy to clean and sturdy.
Dining In Elevated Double Diner Dog Feeder
What a cute, personalized mat with your fur baby name! I love the way this looks, and I do not have to clean up a big mess after he’s done eating.
My 16-year-old fur baby loves this dog food, and I find it to be good for him since he’s getting older. I like to mix it with some of his wet dog food.
Hill's® Science Diet® 7+ Senior Dry Dog Food - Chicken, Barley & Brown Rice
I like to use this wet food with a mix of his dry dog food to give him a good blend. Sometimes, I’ll use the wet food alone and he still loves it.
Hill's Science Diet Small & Mini 7+ Senior Wet Dog Food - Chicken & Barley Entree, 5.8 oz
My senior dog loves this product by Native Pet Omega! His skin is a lot better, and his fur is lush and fluffy. I squirt a few drops of this product to his dog food.
