Do you ponder the reasons behind your elderly dog's declining agility in his hindquarters? Are you concerned that your usual walks with your aging companion might be overly taxing for him now?

With a wealth of practical knowledge accumulated over decades, I specialize in providing expert care for older dogs aged eight years and above.
This podcast provides you with information to ensure your loyal companion enjoys their golden years to the fullest while maintaining a healthy weight and optimal well-being.
