How to Keep Your Furry Family Members Happy and Healthy This Holiday Season

The holiday season is a time of joy, family gatherings, and treats galore. For our furry friends, however, it can also mean changes in routine, tempting treats left within reach, and added stress from festive activities. To keep your pets healthy and safe, we’ve created “12 Days of Christmas Health Tips” – featuring ways to support your pet’s wellness with Northwest Naturals’ products!

Day 1: Boost with Balanced Nutrition

The foundation of pet wellness starts with balanced nutrition. Providing your pets with a complete raw diet ensures they receive essential nutrients to keep their energy levels high. Our raw diets are crafted to give pets the high-quality protein, vitamins, and minerals they need every day.

Day 2: Immune System Support

The cold winter months can be tough on a pet’s immune system. Give them a boost with our fruit and veggie topper, rich in antioxidants that support immune health. Adding this topper to their regular meals can help keep them strong and resilient through the season.

Day 3: Joint Health for the Holidays

Older pets and active pups can benefit from additional joint support. Ingredients found naturally in raw meat, like glucosamine, help promote joint flexibility and reduce discomfort. Add a joint-friendly topper to your pet’s meals to keep them moving and grooving this season.

Day 4: Hydration Help

Hydration is key for pets, especially when homes are heated and the air gets dry. Raw food is naturally high in moisture, making it an excellent choice to support your pet’s hydration. Our raw meals help keep your pets hydrated from the inside out, aiding digestion and overall wellness.

Day 5: Dental Health Delights

Bad breath can be a problem during the holiday cuddle sessions! Keep your pet’s mouth clean and fresh with dental-supporting chews from Northwest Naturals. Our natural chews can help reduce plaque, freshen breath, and contribute to healthy gums.

Day 6: Skin and Coat Glow

Winter weather can dry out pets’ skin and coat. Give them a boost with essential fatty acids from a balanced raw diet, which can help keep their skin hydrated and their coat shiny. A healthy coat also helps protect them from the cold.

Day 7: Digestive Health Boost

The holiday season is full of rich foods that can be tempting for pets to try. A fiber-rich topper with fruits and veggies helps support healthy digestion and can balance any holiday treats that may sneak into their diet.

Day 8: Stress-Free Celebrations

With all the festivities, some pets can get anxious around holiday visitors and changes in routine. Calm their nerves with a soothing treat or topper. Adding these to their diet can help them stay relaxed and comfortable through all the excitement.

Day 9: Training Treats for New Tricks

The holidays are a great time to reinforce good behavior with training treats. Low-calorie treats make it easy to reward your pet without overfeeding. Plus, training new tricks or manners can keep pets focused and engaged, especially with guests around.

Day 10: Heart Health Highlights

Support your pet’s heart health with lean protein and omega-3-rich foods, like our raw diets. Omega-3s are essential for cardiovascular health, especially as pets age, and lean proteins keep them strong and active.

Day 11: Weight Management Wonders

It’s easy for pets to gain a few extra pounds during the holiday season, just like humans! Our portion-controlled treats and low-calorie toppers are perfect for keeping your pet satisfied without overdoing it. Help them stay fit through winter with healthy snacks and mindful portions.

Day 12: Holiday Happiness

As the year comes to a close, remember that the best gift you can give your pet is health and happiness all year round. Start the new year with nutritious, balanced meals and treats that nourish your pet from the inside out. Here’s to a holiday season full of love, joy, and wellness for every furry friend!
