- Feeding a wet diet and encouraging water drinking can reduce the risk of urinary infection, crystals and stones. Similarly, treating any bladder infection promptly is advised to prevent damage to the bladder. Some dogs may require a prescription diet, especially if prone to forming crystals.
- Neutering your dog can prevent their prostate from enlarging and reduce the incidence of prostate disease.
- While spinal cord disease cannot always be prevented, in those that are prone (such as Shih Tzus and Dachshunds), we should keep them slim and consider controlling their environment with e.g. ramps to limit jumps from heights.
