Senior Citizens and Pets

Adopting a dog (or any pet) should never be a decision taken lightly.  Pets are family. They deserve a home with people who are committed to care for them all of their lives.  One question people often ask is "should I consider a dog for my elderly family member?"  The answer is "it depends". Dogs are a great source of companionship.  Caring for a dog gives purpose and the unconditional love that they share is priceless.  But who will care for them in the event that the caregiver becomes ill or must change residences? There is a resource available to help you make an informed decision. Aging in Place National Council for Aging Care has a website that explores the pro's and con's of pet ownership, as well as has other  great resources for seniors including VA resources, in-home care, and articles dedicated to seniors.

    Dog-friendly Tips

     Tank had been posting about his adventures and recommendations for a many years now. As a senior dog his explorations grew limited. He also battled with Canine Cognative Disorder his last two years. I am saddened to announce Tank took his last walk just two months shy of his 15th birthday.

    For those who are his fans, know that he was always spoiled and loved. His explorations with us are our fondest memories.

    ​Make sure to browse Tank's extensive archives for tons of ideas to enjoy with your best 
    friend.
