Description
As our dogs' muzzles turn grey and their steps slow, we're left wondering how to ensure their comfort and well-being. Dr. Mary Gardner draws on her extensive experience caring for geriatric dog patients to provide practical guidance on extending and enhancing older dogs' lives. With warmth and a steady dose of humor, Dr. Gardner tackles the challenges of caregiving for aging dogs, from alleviating pain and meeting special nutritional needs to creating a senior-dog-friendly home and managing caregiver-related stresses. This comprehensive guide covers common ailments affecting older dogs, including cloudy eyes, crusty noses, knobby knees, and achy hips. By following Dr. Gardner's expert advice, dog parents can help their furry family members continue living their best lives throughout every stage of their golden years.
