February Nutrition Reset
Share
January is about goals. February is about fine-tuning. After weeks of winter routines, reduced activity, and heavier treats, many dogs benefit from a gentle nutrition reset.
Why February Matters
By late winter:
- Activity levels are often lower
- Joint stiffness may increase
- Immune systems can be strained
Nutrition should reflect this.
Focus on Immune Support
Cold and dry air can challenge immunity. Ingredients that help:
- Omega-3s
- Antioxidants
- Probiotics

Joint-Friendly Nutrition
Senior dogs and large breeds especially benefit from joint-supportive nutrients in February, when cold weather impacts mobility the most.

Watch Treat Intake
Holiday treats often linger longer than expected. February is a good time to:
- Reduce treat frequency
- Switch to lower-calorie options
- Use treats more intentionally for training

A reset doesn’t mean restriction — it means balance.
