Win a Copy of “Good Old Dog”

The senior issue I am most concerned with is quality of life.

I would love a copy of this book, concerned about quality of life in senior furbabies, I had 2 yellow labs that passed away at the age of 10 1/2, not at the same time. Thank you for all you do for us and our furbabies!

Most concerned about diet for a senior dog. What is easy on ttheir tummies but maintains their good health? Is it okay to spoil them a little?

Missy will be 12 in April, and I have noticed a slow down in her activity level. We also moved from Atlanta to upstate NY in the last year and where she loves the colder weather (she’s part husky) I was not as diligent in all the snow at exercising her consistently.

I would love to learn of some ways I can help increase her mobility, and how I can help her with diet, etc., as she ages. She is my heart, and I would like to keep her healthy and happy for as long as I can.

I would love this book I have 3 senior dogs and I am concerened about
there quality of life these old furbabies are my joy and my heart

I agree with those above. Quality of life is vital. I can handle everything else, change of diet, medication, etc. but if my dog is suffering then I am suffering.

Quality of life for sure…and what diet/supplements can be used to help achieve the best quality of life.

I’m most concerned about managing arthritis with minimal reliance on prescription medication.

I am a subscriber. I most worry about health issues, especially cancer.

I adopted a 13 yr old Bichon from a shelter a couple of yrs. ago. She’s still pretty active and goes on walks with the others. However, I’m concerned with all aspects as she gets even older. Any help would mean so much.

Diet is also a concern.

AAlways forget this…I do subscribe

definitely Quality of Life. I am concerned with this at any age. None of my seniors has had urinary issues but I know many older pets do. One of my kids has coat issues and I would like to better learn if dietary supplements could help.

I would say quality of life. I have rescued 3 senior dogs. I think the biggest issue was were they as pain free as possible and happy.

I’d say overall health; my dog is almost 10 and we’re seeing the vet more frequently now because of arthritis. I’d love to read more about what I can do to help maintain his health now that he’s older.

I have a 12 year old Yorkie and an 11 year old mixed breed who is low and long. I mostly worry about my 11 year old having back problems in the near future. I would love to win this book so I can learn more about how to better care for my senior dogs.

I have the honor of having a senior dog. For me it is about the “quality of life”. If you look into their eyes, they somehow let you know when it is time.

Quality of life is my most important concern. It really envelopes all the other choices. It was just yesterday (really 3 years) since I had to let go of Golden Retriever, Rigby. I’ve since adopted another senior dog, Cole and know I will be faced with this issue again. It’s so personal and individual with each animal. You can’t bare seeing their quality of life slip away and yet you can’t bare to let them go. And in the end you always wonder if you did right by your beloved friend.

I’m concerned with quality of life and keeping my older girl active. She turns 10 soon, and we just did a 5K a few weeks ago, we have to keep it up!

I’m a subscriber and I have a good ol dog!

One of my dogs is 12 and the other will be 9 in a few days. I am most concerned with their nutrition and joint problems, which both of them have.

The one thing I find important is health of a senior dog. Being a shelter working it is very important to pay attention to the signs of a possible illness and such for our senior pets in the shelter

Quality of life

Quality of life and knowing when to let go are huge concerns for me. I adopted my first dog 3 years ago and recently added a companion pup. They have bonded so strongly and now I’m also concerned about how one will cope with losing the other when that time comes.

I am most concerned with diet for my beagle as he gets older. He loves to eat and I want to make sure that I keep his weight maintained

I would love to read this book! I have 2 senior labs (both 10 years old) I lost a 8 year old yellow lab mix last year very suddenly to cancer. I never want any dog to suffer pain – I would hope that good food and excersise would be enough, but one never knows. Quality of life is the most important and I hope they both live a long and happy life. I try very hard to give them the best life possible with regular vet checks, best food for them and exercise daily along with plenty of cuddle hugs for my girls!

I’m a newsletter subscriber and love it!

The quality of life would be my concern.

I am most concerned about health. I have a senior dog now (she is almost 14) and I am worried about her health issues.

I’m interested in getting my old dog enough exercise, but not too much for his old joints.

I just subscribed to DogTipper news.

I’d love a copy of this book!

I would like to win. Thank you.

Health is also a concern.

Quality of life

Gotta go with quality of life, overall.

I wonder about quality of life. I’ve had dogs that lived 18 and 19 years, and have one who is at least 12 now. I wonder why they get so skinny naear the end, even though they still eat well, and don’t have worms.

I’m already subscribed to DogTipper news. Really enjoyed the item on the dog-friendly resort/spa in Austin.

I would love to win this book. thinking about buying as well.

I just subscribed to the site. I also just listened to Dr. Dodman’s interview on NPR. My main concern for my oldest dog is her quality of life as she grows older.

I’m concerned with making sure my 16 year old dog is as comfortable as possible with the best quality of life that I can provide for her at her age.

Quality of Life!

My old dog, Zoey, is a rescue and celebrity of the neighborhood. She’s eleven now, about fifty pounds and decorated a lot like a Holstein cow (white with big black blotches, one of which is, I swear, a big heart on her side. She is starting to get stiff, sometimes having a little trouble jumping up on or off the bed or couch. She’s such a sweetheart. I’m home now being treated with chemo for breast cancer and she is my constant, loving companion. My daily goal is to take her for a walk for at least 20 minutes; its’ good for me and for her. I must admit that I worry about her getting cancer, too, though no signs of anything yet. I’d love to win the book to help me take good care of her as she ages. Thank you.

Heard this book reviewed on Fresh Aire, NPR, this am & am very interested in it since I have an 8 year old granddog! Think that I’ll subscribe to your newsletter.

Our almost 12 Boxer girl is suffering from DM. She is nearing the final stages of the disease and everyday we ask ourselves “how will we know when it’s time?”. This is a horrible disease … her mind and spirit are all still very vibrant, but her hind-quarters are slowly becoming paralyzed … we are told DM is similar to MS in humans … heartbreaking.

I am most concerned about my pet’s health.

Would love to win, thanks!

I have 3 geriatric dogs–always worry about quality of life.

It all comes down to quality of life. I want my dogs living happy until the end. I have a 13 year old border collie who is loving life and hasn’t slowed down. But she has cancer and will have an amputation next week, which should cure it. It’s so hard to know what the right decisions are for our pets. I wouldn’t make any decision that wasn’t for her happiness. I hope the 2 vets I took her to are right and she’ll still have the great quality of life after next week. This book would be very timely reading for me.

our senior dog issue is quality of life, as long as we feel she is still having a good quality of life we will take care of her needs, once she is no longer able to enjoy life we’ll have to think about putting her down

Our dog is twelve years old and I have begun to have many concerns, for one thing he weighs 130 pounds so i want to make sure he stays as agile as he can. I would love this book

My brofur is 14 human years. We’re worried about his hearing and eye sight. His eyes are starting to get a little hazy almost like he has glaucoma and his hearing seems to be getting worse each day. Would love to know how to care for him the best way possible during these times.
