In one study, supplementing with MCTs was shown to reduce cognitive decline in beagles after one month.
Cognitive decline isn’t only a problem for people. As dogs age, they also may show symptoms of canine cognition dysfunction (CCD).
Signs of “dementia” in dogs may include:
• reduced activity• reduced engagement with their environment or family• forgetting training/not remembering toilet training• changed sleep• vagueness, seeming to get lost, eg stuck in corners• increased anxiety, especially separation anxiety• depression
