senior dogs

Celebrate your dog’s golden years! Learn how to give your senior dog a great life and a loving final chapter.

As senior dogs age, they need a different kind of care and attention. In this conversation, you’ll learn how to make the best choices for your older companion.

Ken Gorczyca, DVM, co-founder of Pets Are Wonderful Support (PAWS), joins Sherri Franklin, founder and CEO of Muttville Senior Dog Rescue, for a lively conversation about the care of your senior dog.

Moderated by Muttville’s Chief Veterinary Office Angela Ramiro, they’ll discuss enriching activities to engage your senior, products to ease the challenges of aging, how to find appropriate medical care, how to assess quality of life, evolving choices in hospice, palliative medicine, and end-of-life care, and the crucial things you MUST do to prepare for your pet’s final chapter.

Dr. Gorczyca, a veterinarian with deep experience in pet care and hospice, is currently an in-home euthanasia veterinarian with A Gentle Rest. Sherri is a long-time animal advocate, an expert in senior dog care, and a pioneer in the field of hospice adoption.

Angela built Muttville’s innovative veterinary program, overseeing the care of over a thousand senior dogs a year. Together, they will answer your questions and give you useful, practical advice about the care of your senior dog.
