Hypothyroidism in Dogs

Hypothyroidism occurs when a dog’s thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormones to maintain normal metabolic function. These hormones influence energy, weight, coat quality, digestion, and overall vitality.

Common Signs Owners May Notice

• Tiredness or low energy
  
  

• Weight gain despite normal food intake
  
  

• Dry or thinning coat
  
  

• Flaky or sensitive skin
  
  

• Feeling cold more easily
  
  

• Slower movements or reduced interest in activity
  
  

These signs develop gradually and can be mistaken for ageing or low energy.

Why It Happens

In most cases, the thyroid gland becomes underactive due to:

• natural glandular decline
  
  

• immune-related changes
  
  

• genetic predisposition
  
  

• general endocrine imbalance
  
  

It is most common in middle-aged, medium-to-large breed dogs.

General Wellness Support

Helpful supportive measures may include:

• balanced home prepared natural diet and healthy weight management
  
  

• gentle, regular exercise
  
  

• warmth and comfort in cooler weather
  
  

• skin and coat care
  
  

• reducing stress in the home environment
  
  

These steps support overall wellbeing and comfort for dogs with thyroid imbalance.
