Links to Sites on Senior Dog Care

This December 15th will be Bootsie's 15th Birthday! I'm so happy that she is doing as well as she is! Most people who meet Bootsie think she's a puppy! Bootsie, however, is what's referred to as an "elder-dog",  and as such, has special needs that a younger dog need not be concerned about. The past year has found me researching some of the more particular needs of senior dogs online, and I am compiling this list of links as a reference to anyone who may need them. If you know of someone with an elder-dog, please send them a link to this page!

If you find these links helpful, please remember to check back often because I will be adding to this catalog of links.
