3 Secrets to a Long, Healthy, and Active Life for Your Pup

3 Secrets to a Long, Healthy, and Active Life for Your Pup

Hey WoofTrax friends!

I'm Dr. Jeremy, a veterinarian who's dedicated my career to helping pets, both as a practitioner and by working with fellow vets to improve pet wellness. One thing I've learned in my 10 years in vet med is that vets and pet parents all share the same goal—helping our dogs live longer, happier lives by our side.

Recently, I came across an article in the Harvard Health Journal where Dr. Thomas Frieden, former director of the CDC, said, 'Walking is the closest thing we have to a wonder drug.' Regular walks aren’t just a routine; they’re essential for keeping our pups healthy and joyful. And there are other easy things you can do to help your pup live a healthier life!

Alright, let's jump right in! Here are the 3 most important things you can do to boost your pup's health, starting today!

Stay Active, But at Your Dog's Pace

While walking your dog is important, it's key to find the right balance of how often and how long you go. WoofTrax makes this easy with its weekly walking goal feature – set a target and track your progress!

We've put together some guidelines below, considering your dog's age, breed, and any health issues they might have. We know weekdays can get busy, so the plan includes shorter walks then and longer ones on weekends.

Puppies (Under 6 months old)

Puppies are like little bundles of energy, but they're also still growing and learning about the world around them!

So, their walks should be short and sweet – think 10 to 20 minutes, a few times a day. This gives them plenty of chances to explore and sniff around without getting too tired.

For Puppies

Suggested WoofTrax Weekly Goals:

Weekly Walk Count: 12-18

Weekly Distance: 6-12 miles

Pro Tip: Start leash training in a safe, familiar place like your backyard or even indoors to help your pup get used to it.

Healthy Adult Dogs

If your pup's not the most active type or is a bit out of shape, that's okay! Start slow and steady with a 10 to 15-minute walk each day. Ideally, aim for two walks, but hey,
life happens!

Don't stress if you can't always fit in two. The most important thing is spending quality time with your furry friend.

Pro Tips for Adult Dogs:

Walk Duration: 15 to 60 minutes, depending on breed and fitness level

Energetic Breeds (e.g., Border Collies, Australian Shepherds): Longer walks are likely needed

Short-nosed or Small Breeds (e.g., French Bulldogs, Chihuahuas): Shorter walks may be better

For Adult Healthy Dogs

Suggested WoofTrax Weekly Goals:

Energetic Breeds

Weekly Walk Count: 8-12

Weekly Distance: 25-40 miles

Lower Intensity Breeds:

Weekly Walk Count: 8-12

Weekly Distance: 10-20 miles

Senior Dogs or Dogs with Joint Issues:

Even if your furry friend is entering their golden years or has joint issues, regular walks are still a fantastic way to keep them feeling their best!

Gentle exercise like walking helps maintain a healthy weight, keeps their joints moving smoothly, and helps them stay strong – all of which are super important for joint health.

Pro Tips:

Slow down the pace

Shorten walk durations

Adjust walk frequency

For Older Or Dogs With Joint Problems

Suggested WoofTrax Weekly Goals:

Weekly Walk Count: 14-18

Weekly Distance: 8-16 miles

Keep Them Fit

Did you know a whopping 60% of dogs in the U.S. are carrying a bit too much weight?

We all love spoiling our furry friends with treats but keeping them at a healthy weight is crucial for a long and happy life. Extra pounds can lead to some serious problems like heart issues, diabetes, cancer, and even make those joint problems worse.

So, what's the secret to keeping your pup trim? Regular walks and exercise are key, along with a balanced diet. Your vet can help you figure out the right amount of food, whether it's homemade or store-bought.

And here's a handy tip: ask your vet to check your dog's Body Condition Score (BCS). It's a simple way to see if they're at a healthy weight. Ideally, your pup should score between 4 and 5. Anything higher means they might need to shed a few pounds.

Use an Effective Joint Supplement

While many joint supplements rely on glucosamine, recent research suggests it may not be the miracle worker for your dog's joints we once thought. Instead, look for supplements rich in EPA and DHA, those super important Omega-3s.

Here's the thing: Dogs can't easily convert plant-based Omega-3s (ALA) into the EPA and DHA they need, so it's best to give them these nutrients directly, usually through fish oil.

Another ingredient that's got vets excited is UC-II® collagen.

Why? Backed by over 10 studies in dogs and even more in other species (including us humans!), it's showing impressive results in supporting healthy joints and superiority to glucosamine and chondroitin.

Jope supports your dog to stay active

Jope Hip & Joint Dog Chews aren't your average joint supplement! We've combined the power of EPA & DHA (those essential Omega-3s) with UC-II® collagen and curcumin from turmeric.

This unique blend is backed by science and the real-life experiences of thousands of happy dogs. Veterinarians love the science-backed formula, and many pet parents report seeing positive changes in their pup's mobility within just three weeks—with even more noticeable results after three months of consistent use.

What Our Clients Say About Us?

I got my bubbie back! Before and after.....the Video of my bub walking with the pain, the stiffness was Oct 2, 2024. The next is today, him running up the steps, Oct. 24, 2024. THIS works. You see the difference. He has improved quickly. He was running last Saturday at the dog park with such energy and a huge smile. If you have concerns that this is yet another supplement that is a waste, it is not. WORTH every penny!

Debby

We saw positive change within 10 days in my 10 year old male Golden Retriever and now that he has been on Jope for a couple of months, the shakiness in his rear legs is gone. We changed nothing else in his diet or exercise routine but he is clearly doing much better on Jope. We will continue this supplement for the rest of his life.

Betsy W.

This stuff works! I have tried every product out on the market. Nothing helped my girl German Shepherd until this product. She used to have a hard time getting up and walking, but now I see so much improvement. She is still a little stiff, but she is 98% herself again! She is 6 years old and acts like she is a puppy.

My dog was struggling with a limp for awhile. I had tried multiple things to make it better. None really worked. I found Jope and over the last few months of using it, I have noticed drastic improvement. We will continue to use this product. It was literally life changing for me and my best friend!

Shane C.

I can’t thank you all enough for creating this amazing hip & joint chew and sharing it with pet owners! My 10 year old Australian Shepherd used to shake her back legs after coming up the stairs. She has been on Jope for a month now and the improvements are amazing! She raced up the stairs tonight, as well as jumped and ran in the house. It makes me so happy to see her have energy again

Heather

Miracle Merlin has been on Jope for a few months. He’s 12 yo and has arthritis in his shoulders. Well it’s been a busy couple of weeks here and forgot to order more Jope. I ran out Friday ( it’s Monday and it came today) and by Sunday I notice he was limping again. Won’t let that happen again

Fran W.

Before Jope, our senior pup (12 year old standard Yorkie) was unable to jump or run, couldn’t walk on trails anymore, could only sit and stand after struggling and would keep weight off his right hind leg while standing. We had him on commonplace glucosamine supplements that produced little change. Within his first month of Jope, he started walking longer, sitting and standing without much effort and now at three months in, runs, jumps, and plays like he did when he was 5 years old! Jope is absolutely worth it! We recommend it to everyone with a pup, no matter their age! Thank you, Jope!!!

Jaq D.

My rescue greyhound is 11 years old and she had been having trouble with her hips both laying down and getting up. She still has the energy of a puppy sometimes and it doesn't last long but it was hard seeing her struggle to laydown and get up. Jope has eased that struggle. After 90 days I see a difference from where she was to where she is today. It still takes her a bit to get up and laydown but she doesn't seem to be struggling or in pain. She's been running more in the backyard too and it makes me happy to see her running like that. Jope works.
