Why This Handbook Stands Apart:
Unlike generic pet care books that dedicate a single chapter to senior pets, this comprehensive guide focuses exclusively on the geriatric life stage. Author Shelby Brooks synthesizes veterinary research, clinical practice standards, and evidence-based protocols into accessible guidance for pet owners committed to excellence in senior care.
Each chapter provides actionable strategies you can implement immediately, from medication management techniques to environmental modifications that prevent falls. The book acknowledges the emotional difficulty of senior pet care while providing practical tools for navigating medical decisions, financial considerations, and quality of life assessments.
Perfect For:
- Pet owners whose animals are entering senior years (age 7+ for large dogs, 10+ for small dogs, 11+ for cats)
- Families managing chronic conditions including arthritis, kidney disease, or cognitive dysfunction
- Anyone who wants to proactively optimize their pet's senior years rather than reacting to crises
- Pet owners facing difficult quality of life and end-of-life decisions
- Veterinary technicians and pet care professionals seeking comprehensive senior care guidance
What Readers Will Achieve:
By implementing the strategies in this handbook, you'll recognize age-related problems early when interventions prove most effective, maintain your pet's mobility and comfort through evidence-based pain management, optimize nutrition to preserve muscle mass and support organ function, slow cognitive decline through environmental enrichment and targeted interventions, create a safe, accessible home environment accommodating changing abilities, partner effectively with veterinarians through informed advocacy, and make end-of-life decisions with confidence that you honored your pet's welfare.
The Senior Years Don't Have to Mean Suffering
With proper management, many pets maintain excellent quality of life well into their teens. The difference lies in recognizing problems early, implementing appropriate interventions, and adjusting care as needs evolve. This handbook provides the knowledge base for becoming your senior pet's most effective advocate and caregiver.
Transform your pet's golden years from decline to continued joy and comfort.
