🐾 November is Senior Pet Month! 🐾

Hey there, pet parents!

As we celebrate Senior Pet Month, it's the perfect time to shine a spotlight on our beloved older furry friends. 🐶❤️

Just like us, senior dogs can experience behavioral changes as they age. These changes might include:

Sensory Changes: Vision and hearing can decline, so be patient and understanding.

Less Playfulness: Older dogs might have less energy for play, but they still appreciate love and attention.

Cognitive Changes: Some seniors may experience confusion or memory issues. Keep them comfortable and create a consistent routine.

Changes in Sleep Patterns: Seniors often sleep more. Provide a comfy, quiet spot for rest.

Increased Anxiety: Seniors can become more anxious. Reassurance and a calm environment help.

Incontinence: Be prepared for accidents and consider consulting your vet for solutions.

If you notice any significant or sudden changes in your senior dog's behavior, it's essential to consult with your veterinarian. We're here to support your senior pets and ensure they enjoy their golden years to the fullest. 🏥🦴

Let's make sure our senior pets get the love and care they deserve. They've given us a lifetime of companionship, and they still have plenty of love to give! 🐕🐾 🐶❤️

Let's make this month about health and happiness for our four-legged pals! 🦴🐾

🐾 Meet Splinter - A Sweet Senior in Search of a Forever Home! 🐾

One of our amazing clients is fostering Splinter, a 10-year-old Chihuahua mix with a gentle heart and a friendly nature. This affectionate guy may be hard of hearing, but that doesn’t slow him down! He gets along great with other dogs, especially those closer to his age, and he’s fully house-trained.

Splinter has been vaccinated and had a checkup with a vet, but he’ll need some dental work soon and is not neutered yet. Aside from that, he’s a healthy little senior who just loves to snuggle! He’s a quiet Chihuahua, only speaking up when he really needs to. 🐶

Whoever welcomes Splinter home will also get his favorite bed, leash, and collar. Let’s help this sweet boy find the loving family he deserves! If you or someone you know is interested in meeting Splinter, please reach out! 💙
