Feeding Your Dog Properly

Feeding Your Dog Properly

Nutrition is the foundation of good health. Puppies require high-protein, calorie-rich food to support rapid growth, while adult dogs need balanced meals that provide energy without excess weight gain. Seniors often benefit from lower-calorie diets with added joint support. Fresh, clean water must always be available, and treats should be given in moderation to prevent obesity. At Petacular, we stock premium dry and wet food tailored to different life stages, breeds, and dietary needs, ensuring your dog thrives at every stage of life.

Exercise and Mental Stimulation

Exercise and Mental Stimulation

Exercise and Mental Stimulation

Dogs need daily physical activity to maintain a healthy weight and prevent behavioural issues. A brisk walk, a game of fetch, or a run in the park keeps energy levels balanced and reduces stress. Just as important is mental stimulation — puzzle toys, obedience training, and socialisation help keep dogs sharp and engaged. Active breeds such as border collies and kelpies require more stimulation than small companion breeds, but every dog benefits from play and interaction.

Grooming and Regular Vet Care

Grooming and Regular Vet Care

Grooming and Regular Vet Care

Brushing your dog’s coat reduces shedding, prevents matting, and strengthens the bond between you and your pet. Bathing every four to six weeks with dog-safe shampoo keeps coats fresh, while regular nail trimming and dental care prevent discomfort. Routine vet visits are essential for vaccinations, parasite prevention, and early detection of health issues. At Petacular, every adopted dog is vet-checked and comes with a free seven-day consultation and one month of pet insurance, giving families confidence as they begin their journey together.
