If your dog is lacking in energy, this can be a sign that something is medically wrong. Any changes in behaviour or demeanour should first be reported to your vet and a full and thorough examination undertaken.

Once your vet has ruled out any underlying causes, the following may be helpful in addressing the problem.

Nutrition

Your dog’s diet is very important in relation to his energy levels. Some diet related possibilities for a loss of energy may include:

• A very sudden and unaccustomed reduction to the dog’s calorie intake.
• A change to a diet with a different nutrient.

Ageing

                              

Slowing down is a natural part of ageing. If he/she is getting older, you may need to accept that just like people, he/she might not be up to such quite long works or periods of play as he/she used to enjoy in his/her younger days.

Swimming is great for older dogs and is very good for their muscle tone and definition, so trying out a hydrotherapy pool for some supervised fun in the water could be an option to consider.

Weight

Even a small amount of excess weight can be significant, and the more weight a dog has to carry, the more strain there will be on his joints, circulation and other vital organs.

Unaccustomed Extra Exercise 

Most dogs adore a good amount of exercise (health status permitting), and it’s essential to ensure that they are adequately stimulated and taken for plenty of enjoyable walks.

Depression 

        

Dogs can be very sensitive creatures, so it’s essential to look at all possibilities and enlist the help of a qualified behaviourist who uses kind and ethical methods to get to the bottom of any problem and try to minimise the risk of recurrence.
