When should I start monitoring for signs?
Start monitoring when your dog reaches senior age (typically around 7 years for most breeds). Large breeds may show signs earlier, while small breeds might develop symptoms later.
Can cognitive dysfunction be treated?
While there’s no cure, early intervention can help manage symptoms through medication, dietary changes, and lifestyle adjustments. Your veterinarian can create a tailored management plan.
How often should I use this assessment?
For senior dogs, checking every 3-6 months is recommended. If you notice sudden behavioral changes, consult your veterinarian.
