The correct answers are precipitated not only by your individual dog and your situation, but the conditions surrounding your dog. That is, you have to consider things like your dog’s age, activity level and your household. It can be a mess of questions with no easy answers, but it’s always a comfort to know your older dog is right there, as anxious and happy to please you as always.
Or, as Bonnie Wilcox, author of "Old Dogs, Old Friends" says, "Old Dogs, like old shoes, are comfortable. They might be a bit out of shape and a little worn around the edges, but they fit well."
There’s a comfort in that, isn’t there? A comfort knowing that your older dog is comfortable with you and your house, with his environs and household situation. There’s a comfort for both you and the dog in that, certainly.
But there are some discomforts, too. Your companion might be getting slower, a little confused at times. Perhaps his or her vision or hearing is not what it used to be. Maybe he or she can’t take the several-mile walks you took in the past. Maybe the problems are less severe, but just annoying. Snoring. Slobbering. Peeing. The list might go on and on.
But you wouldn’t trade him for the entire world, would you? That’s why we’re here. To hold your hand and walk you through this brave new world of helping your dog age well and gracefully. We can offer tips and suggestions that will hopefully help you and Fido age gracefully together.
