"Une approche scientifique pour accroître l''espérance de vie de nos compagnons canins et leur offrir une vie saine et heureuse. Malgré les avancées dans le domaine de la médecine vétérinaire, les données les plus récentes indiquent que l''espérance de vie des chiens ne s''est pas améliorée dans les pays occidentaux.

Dans cet ouvrage novateur, les auteurs s''emploient à comprendre les tenants et aboutissants de cette triste réalité, puis à proposer des solutions afin de faire une différence dans la vie de nos animaux de compagnie. En réunissant les connaissances d''éminents généticiens, microbiologistes et chercheurs sur la longévité du meilleur ami de l''homme et en interprétant les dernières recherches scientifiques sur l''alimentation et la nutrition, l''exercice physique, les expositions environnementales et la réduction du stress, les auteurs offrent des conseils faciles à mettre en pratique afin d''offrir à toutou une qualité de vie améliorée. Aucun facteur externe n''est mis de côté : des nutriments de longévité dont un chien a besoin jusqu''au rôle que joue notre propre mode de vie sur son bien-être global. Un guide essentiel pour tous ceux qui ont à coeur la santé de leurs fidèles compagnons."--

#1 New York Times Bestseller In this pathbreaking guide, two of the world’s most popular and trusted pet care advocates reveal new science to teach us how to delay aging and provide a long, happy, healthy life for our canine companions. Like their human counterparts, dogs have been getting sicker and dying prematurely over the past few decades. Why? Scientists are beginning to understand that the chronic diseases afflicting humans—cancer, obesity, diabetes, organ degeneration, and autoimmune disorders—also beset canines. As a result, our beloved companions are vexed with preventable health problems throughout much of their lives and suffer shorter life spans. Because our pets can’t make health and lifestyle decisions for themselves, it’s up to pet parents to make smart, science-backed choices for lasting vitality and health. The Forever Dog gives us the practical, proven tools to protect our loyal four-legged companions. Rodney Habib and Karen Becker, DVM, globetrotted (pre-pandemic) to galvanize the best wisdom from top geneticists, microbiologists, and longevity researchers; they also interviewed people whose dogs have lived into their 20s and even 30s. The result is this unprecedented and comprehensive guide, filled with surprising information, invaluable advice, and inspiring stories about dogs and the people who love them. The Forever Dog prescriptive plan focuses on diet and nutrition, movement, environmental exposures, and stress reduction, and can be tailored to the genetic predisposition of particular breeds or mixes. The authors discuss various types of food—including what the commercial manufacturers don’t want us to know—and offer recipes, easy solutions, and tips for making sure our dogs obtain the nutrients they need. Habib and Dr. Becker also explore how external factors we often don’t think about can greatly affect a dog’s overall health and wellbeing, from everyday insults to the body and its physiology, to the role our own lifestyles and our vets’ choices play. Indeed, the health equation works both ways and can travel “up the leash.” Medical breakthroughs have expanded our choices for canine health—if you know what they are. This definitive dog-care guide empowers us with the knowledge we need to make wise choices, and to keep our dogs healthy and happy for years to come.
