Between 4 and 7 months of age, puppies replace their baby teeth with permanent teeth. You should clean your dog's teeth with a dog toothpaste or paste made from baking soda and water once or twice a week. Use a child's toothbrush, gauze pad, or piece of nylon pantyhose stretched over your finger. Veterinarians can clean teeth also as a regular part of your dog's health program. |

Different breeds are considered senior at different ages. The aging process will begin slowly and nearly imperceptibly. Your dog will become less active, his metabolism slows down and he might put on weight. It's important to change his diet and give him smaller portions 2–3 times daily. It will relieve his digestive system and ensure an even intake of nutrients. Your dog might need a special diet, which you can get from your veterinarian. The first signs of aging appear between the 8th and 10th year. The head and muzzle will grey, and he may experience deterioration of sight and hearing. His sense of smell, however, is almost completely unaffected by aging. Your senior dog will still love to play, even if his fitness level has declined. And if he has some little house-training accidents, he'll be quite embarrassed. So, try not to scold him for this. |

A common sports injury in human knees is even more common in dogs. Each year, more than one million dogs suffer from cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) deficiency, which is comparable to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in humans. The common method of treatment by many veterinary surgeons involves cutting the tibia bone to stabilize the CCL-deficient knee in these dogs. |
