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.
