Senior Pet
Consultation
We love young, healthy pets, but our passion is helping geriatric and senior pets and those living with chronic or terminal diseases who need (and deserve) extra special care. Senior pets hold a very special place in our hearts. Almost 50% of our pets are “senior” or “geriatric.”
If appropriate, we can teach you how to:
Adjust your pet’s home living environment
Modify their diet
Administer fluids
Monitor their Quality of Life
Fit for a harness (to assist with standing/walking)
Implement an exercise plan to preserve strength and stamina.
Pets give us such joy as they age. When they are younger and full of energy, they can provide you with great companionship and interaction. As they age, they may slow down a bit, cuddle a bit more, sleep a little longer, and have a more challenging time getting around, but above all, the sweet disposition of an older pet gives us great comfort. During these later years, we really have an opportunity to give back to them.
Our pets don’t ask us for anything (other than giving us “that look” for their favorite treat), but older pets often need our assistance in many areas to help them maintain a healthy and happy life. Caring for an older pet allows pet lovers to give back all that unconditional love they have received from their pet. They’ll never ask you for help, but your help will be greatly appreciated.
