LEAVE THE SPOOKY SIDE OF DEATH BEHIND THIS MONTH AND JOIN US ON A JOURNEY INTO THE ROMANCE, COMEDY, AND BUREAUCRACY OF THE AFTERLIFE.   We'll get back to scary things next month, because this month is all about the wholesome possibilities of death stories. Gabe and returning guest Tyler Foster explore a surprisingly prevalent subgenre of romantic comedies concerning the processes of the afterlife. Avoiding movies that focused too much on haunting or possession, we still ended up with a list of seven movies that share a curious number of concepts and tropes in common – Alexander Hall's Here Comes Mr. Jordan (1941), Victor Fleming's A Guy Named Joe (1943), Vincente Minnelli's Cabin in the Sky (1943), Ernst Lubitsch's Heaven Can Wait (1943), Powell & Pressburger's A Matter of Life and Death (aka: Stairway to Heaven, 1946), Warren Beatty & Buck Henry's Here Comes Mr. Jordan remake, Heaven Can Wait (not otherwise related to the Lubitsch movie, 1978), and Albert Brooks' Defending Your Life (1991). In the process of breaking these films down, we also talk briefly about Frank Capra's It's a Wonderful Life (1947), Steven Spielberg's A Guy Named Joe remake (Always [1989]), and Paul & Chris Weitz' Here Comes Mr. Jordan remake (Down to Earth [2001]).   00:00 – Intro 7:13 – Here Comes Mr. Jordan 19:36 – A Guy Named Joe 36:01 – Cabin in the Sky 47:12 – Heaven Can Wait (1943) 56:36 – A Matter of Life and Death 1:14:06 – Heaven Can Wait (1978) 1:31:15 – Defending Your Life 1:46:03 – Outro   Please consider donating to the following charities/fundraisers if you have any spare cash: Abortion Access Fund, Inc:​​ https://abortionaccessfund.org/ UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East) Gaza Crisis Appeal: https://donate.unrwa.org/gaza/ Lilith Fund (Texas abortion access): https://www.lilithfund.org/ National Center for Transgender Equality: https://transequality.org/

Join Nick Estes and Rebecca Nagle for an urgent discussion of the ongoing attack on Indigenous children and Indigenous land. Nick Estes puts into historical context recent headlines surrounding the discovery of mass graves of Native children at Canadian residential schools. The removal of Indigenous children from their communities and families has a long genocidal legacy that persists today, well beyond the boarding school era in Canada and the United States. The attack on Indigenous children is an attack on Indigenous sovereignty and land, and there is urgency to uphold protections that are under assault by the right wing, such as the Indian Child Welfare Act. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nick Estes is a citizen of the Lower Brule Sioux Tribe. He is the author of Our History Is the Future: Standing Rock Versus the Dakota Access Pipeline, and the Long Tradition of Indigenous Resistance (Verso, 2019), coeditor with Jaskiran Dhillon of Standing with Standing Rock: Voices from the #NoDAPL Movement (University of Minnesota Press, 2019), and coauthor with Melanie K. Yazzie, Jennifer Nez Denetdale, and David Correia of Red Nation Rising: From Bordertown Violence to Native Liberation (PM Press, 2021). In 2014 he cofounded The Red Nation, an Indigenous resistance organization, and he is cohost of The Red Nation podcast. His writing has appeared in the Guardian, Intercept, Jacobin, Indian Country Today, High Country News, and other publications. Estes was an American Democracy Fellow at the Charles Warren Center for Studies in American History at Harvard University (2017–2018) and until 2021 was an assistant professor in the American Studies Department at the University of New Mexico. He joins the faculty of the University of Minnesota Department of American Indian Studies in 2022. Rebecca Nagle is an award-winning journalist and citizen of the Cherokee Nation. Nagle hosted Crooked Media's podcast This Land, telling the story of a Supreme Court case about tribal land in Oklahoma, the small town murder that started the case, and the surprising connection to her own family history. You can find her writing on issues of Native representation and tribal sovereignty in the Atlantic, the Washington Post, the Guardian, USA Today, Teen Vogue, Indian Country Today, and other publications. Nagle was awarded the 2020 American Mosaic Journalism Prize for her reporting. She has also been named to the YBCA 100 and the National Center for American Indian Enterprise Development's Native American 40 under 40. Nagle lives in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This event is a partnership between Lannan Foundation and Haymarket Books.

The National Center for Appropriate Technology has launched America's first AgriSolar Clearinghouse to connect farmers, ranchers, land managers, solar developers, and researchers with trusted, practical information to increase the co-location of solar and agriculture.In less than a decade, solar installations are expected to cover more than 3 million acres of the United States, creating a big opportunity to pair solar with agricultural land to produce food, conserve ecosystems, create renewable energy, increase pollinator habitat, and maximize farm revenue.In this episode of Voices from the Field, NCAT Communications Director Emilie Ritter Saunders speaks with Energy Programs Director Stacie Peterson, Phd., about how the AgriSolar Clearinghouse aims to make solar more accessible to land managers looking to make the most out of their land, diversify their revenue, and produce renewable energy.

In the Spring of 2019, I sat down with real estate investor and developer Gary Brooks at his office in Bricktown to have a deeper conversation about his experiences with historic The First National Center project in downtown OKC and what it has meant to him. He reflects about the very positive and supportive responses that he has received from current and former residents of Oklahoma City and some of their family members since this project was announced to the public and since the renovation work has begun. At that time, it was the largest historic renovation project to date in the State Of Oklahoma.

Today's show rundown: Chuck starts out talking about division in our country - caused primarily by the media. Truth is under assault by this media, and they just will not stop. If you can convince men of absurdity, you can lead them to commit atrocities. We have a complicit, legacy media who just keep this train running. Take this Rittenhouse trial, the main stream media is only showing the prosecutions side, who the defense speaks, they aren't covering it at all. People on the jury of the Rittenhouse trial are being threatened. The Judge on the trial is getting death threats. This is FROM the people who are supposed to believe in lives mattering right? We were just mislead with the supposed "facts" in this case, the AR-15, the victims, where Rittenhouse was...all of it is being proven to be false. Mark believes now, that whatever you hear coming out of this White House...believe the opposite. You can't trust the media, you can not trust this White House. Jen Saki is just looking into the camera and lies...she does it with virtue...she forcefully lies. She lies with the commitment of being indignant that you would ask her such a question. Build back bankrupt is paid for? We get into Pfizer, and our guest - Scott Shepherd, who is with the Free Enterprise Project at the National Center. Scott is going to tell us what is going on with Pfizer. Is this a bad time to be a young, white, educated executive, looking to climb up in corporate America? Are you disadvantaged? Build Back Socialist is what this new bill should be called? Bio: Scott Shepard is a fellow at the National Center as well as the director of the National Center's Free Enterprise Project, the conservative movement's only full-service shareholder activism and education program. Scott has taught at law schools including the Wake Forest School of Law in North Carolina and the Willamette University College of Law in Oregon.

Today on Midday, we examine the challenges facing nursing homes, home-care providers and the elder-care industry as a whole. Nursing homes, like hospitals and other care providers, are facing severe staff shortages. The pandemic has led to labor shortages throughout the economy. Restaurants have had to scale back hours because they can't find enough servers and cooks. The supply chain has been disrupted by not enough truck drivers to meet the demand, and school systems across the country are scrambling to certify and hire bus drivers. A report issued last week by the American Health Care Association and National Center for Assisted Living says that nursing homes are down 221,000 jobs since the pandemic began. This decline of 14% in the workforce dwarfs any other sector. A survey showed that 78% of nursing homes and 61% of assisted living communities have serious concerns about their ability to remain open.What does this mean for the elderly who need help in both community based and at-home settings? Joining Tom to discuss these issues are:Joseph DeMattos, Jr. He's the President and CEO of the Health Facilities Association of Maryland; andAllison Roenigk Ciborowski, the President and CEO of Leading Age Maryland, a network of non-profits that encourage innovation and collaboration in care for the aging. _________________________________________________________________For family members providing care at home, here are some important resources: Baltimore City Division of Aging410-396-2273 Baltimore County Dept. of Aging 410-887-2594 Maryland Dept. of Aging (for other jurisdictions) 410-767-1100 See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On the CBS News "Weekend Roundup" with host Allison Keyes: Covid cases are up in nearly 35 states just as the Biden administration touts a strong start to the vaccine program for children ages 5 through 11. CBS' Michael George has the latest. According to the American Health Care Association and National Center for Assisted Living, nursing homes alone lost 221-thousand jobs since the pandemic started. Allison gets the details from president and CEO Mark Parkinson.The Labor Department says inflation has hit a 31-year high. We'll hear from CBS News Business Analyst Jill Schlesinger. CBS' Peter King explains why NASA just delayed its 2024 deadline to bring astronauts back to the moon. On this week's Kaleidoscope, we're commemorating Native American Heritage Month. As the U-N Climate summit winds down, some 3.7 million Native American and Indigenous people are facing direct threats to their land and culture from rising waters and temperatures to glacier melts. The Quinault Indian Nation is among them - with a Pacific Coast village at risk. Allison speaks with their senior planner, Kelsey Moldenke. This week the nation honored our veterans for their service and sacrifices, but many suffer from PTSD and other mental health issues. More than 30 groups, including the Sierra Club, launched the Military Outdoors Coalition. Allison speaks with Retired Army Lt. Col Aaron Leonard, who runs the program. Finally, Allison takes us to Arlington National Cemetery to mark the 100th anniversary of the original burial at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

I've been called a thought leader and an expert, but I've also been called bad names by trolls, so it balances out. My job is leading digital strategy for a kick-ass agency called Cornett in Lexington, Ky. (2021 Ad Age Small Agency Gold Winner in the Southeast Region). My experiences have given me the opportunity to speak at conferences, write three books and be called all sorts of superlatives by Forbes, Business Week, Entrepreneur and others. To serve the small business community, I offer a few select marketing coaching calls each month. Let's connect! https://jasonfalls.com/get-winfluence/ I host a pair of podcast on C-Suite Radio. Digging Deeper - Make Creativity Your Business Advantage is a weekly interview series focused on creativity and marketing. Winfluence - The Influence Marketing Podcast dives deep into experts on influencer marketing and is a supplement to my latest book. I'm also on the Global Influencer Marketing Advisory Board, an industry directional organization founded by Audience2Media, a UK firm. Some people know me from founding SocialMediaExplorer.com, which at one point was one of the top marketing blogs in the world according to AdAge. I've been involved in some really cool projects over the years that have won awards and recognition. I'm particularly proud of helping form the strategy for Wonderopolis, an education effort by the National Center for Families Learning (NCFL) which was called one of the top 50 websites in the world by Time Magazine in 2013. Projects I've been a part of have also won SAMMY Awards, Shorty Awards and dozens of regional ADDY Awards. Some people call me insightful. Some call me funny and engaging. My kids just roll their eyes and call me Dad. I dig bourbon and sports.

Imagine this. It's the early years of our country.  After a lengthy legal career and senate confirmation, you  become a Supreme Court Justice.  One of your duties?  Get on your horse and travel hundreds or thousands of miles around your “circuit” to hear appeals case.  Believe it or not, that was once the responsibility of our Supreme Court justices! What exactly are Federal District Courts, Circuit Courts, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit?  What are their jurisdictions?  How do they differ from state courts?  For these answers and more, join our panel and special guest, Senior Fellow with the National Center for Public Policy Research Horace Cooper, as we examine our federal court system.

Today's show rundown: The left says that America is back so much, that Americans are buying too much. But if you look at the sales figures, we have the same amount of consuming going on at this time last year. But the hallmarks of socialism is - a lack of goods and services, hyperinflation, and the loss of personal freedoms...sound anything like what we have going on here? All CNN can talk about is Trump, and how ineffective he was as a President, and STILL talking about the Insurrection. They aren't covering anything on what the Biden Administration I doing. Chuck talks a bit about how the Biden / Obama administration launched a non-military coup on President Trump. A man who came along, and was concerned about the American people. So what is it that the Left is all about, that they give each other awards every day...what do they actually are about. These people actually despise the American People. Kamala Harris is at a 20 percent approval rating / all time recorded record for being disliked. Her and Biden's approval ratings, in under a year are under 30 Percent. Why is this not being talked about? All we hear is "they aren't Trump". 9 out of 10 Scientists...funded by the government...agree with the government on climate change. Imagine that...people who benefit from agreeing with the government...agree with the government. We meet the show guest Bonner Cohen, who says we accomplished nothing during this Glasgow Climate Change Conference (COP26). The global elites have determined we are experience a "Climate Crisis" that is caused by us. Because it is said that man made emissions, are heat trapping, we are causing the Earth to warm, and that it will be dangerous for life, that we have a human induced climate crisis. The people setting this all up who stand to benefit from all these climate change policies strongly...are all for it. BIO – Bonner R. Cohen is a senior fellow at the National Center for Public Policy Research, where he concentrates on energy, natural resources, and international relations. He also serves as a senior policy adviser with the Heartland Institute, senior policy analyst with the Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow, and as adjunct scholar at the Competitive Enterprise Institute.

The featured episode from "The Restorative Lens Podcast" hosts LTomay Douglas and Allana Ojibway speak with Edward Valandra,  Waŋbli Wapȟáha Hokšíla, who is both an author and editor for Colorizing Restorative Justice. His chapter, “Undoing the First Harm: Settlers in Restorative Justice,” gives voice to the need for settlers to recognize the ways that restorative justice too often fails to address the first harm: which is the theft and continued occupancy of Indigenous land. Through honesty and education, Edward sheds light on the contradicting relationship between RJ practitioners instilling restorative practices/values, while at the same time failing to acknowledge or take accountability for ways that settlers continue to benefit from the stolen land. He discusses practical ways that educators and practitioners can take action and bring dialogue of the First Harm into restorative spaces.Follow their podcast on:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-restorative-lens/id1588436493Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3KZ97jnssXPfnMSwvFLeJYand check out the work of the National Center on Restorative Justice at https://www.vermontlaw.edu/academics/centers-and-programs/national-center-on-restorative-justice

Dawn Hawkins, CEO of the National Center on Sexual Exploitation, joins the Ending Sexploitation podcast to discuss the history of the organization and its vision for the future. The discussion includes the need for a bipartisan and diverse movement that addresses the full spectrum of sexual abuse and exploitation issues. Dawn Hawkins emphasizes the need to address not only sex trafficking and child sexual abuse, but also more controversial issues like pornography and prostitution which are sexually exploitive in and of themselves and which feed into more kinds of harm. She addresses the cultural confusion about if prostitution and pornography can be considered legitimate jobs, and if systems can be set up which ensure they are ethical, or if they are inherently harmful.

Immigrant integration is the domestic policy side of the immigration debate: The secret sauce as to whether immigration policy is successful or not. Yet the issue of how immigrants and their children fare and the integration policies and programs that help ease their incorporation into society often receive far less attention, certainly in the U.S. context, than questions around immigration levels, border security, and the unauthorized population. Some countries are quite intentional about their immigrant integration programming, while the United States has a more decentralized approach, even as immigrants have moved beyond the handful of traditional destinations in recent decades. In this conversation, Margie McHugh, director of MPI's National Center on Immigrant Integration Policy, chats with Ivana Tú Nhi Giang about why integration is important not just for immigrants and their families but for the broader society as well.

When we first met Dr. Jane Silovsky years ago, talking about youth with problematic sexual behaviors, it was a pervasive myth in the Children's Advocacy Center world that CACs could not serve these kids. Somehow they weren't our kids, somehow they weren't deserving of help, or somehow they just weren't ours to serve. But 25% to 30% of our cases each year involve sexually abusing or acting out on other kids. To make any difference at all in that work, we have to serve these kids. This is meaningful prevention work. In today's conversation, we explore what's normal sexual behavior in youth—a tough question for any parent or any colleague. How do we identify and stop problematic sexual behaviors? What treatment actually works? How do we involve families in their own healing and success? And how do we get beyond billboards and bus kiosks to doing the kind of prevention work that actually matters?Topics in this episode:What is problematic sexual behavior?What causes it?Myths about problematic sexual behaviorThe importance of caregiversDemographics & treatmentPublic policy and CAC advicePut on your oxygen mask firstAvailable resourcesLearn moreLinks:Jane Silovsky, Ph.D., is a professor of pediatrics at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center.

This week on the Retirement Quick Tips Podcast, I'm talking about the 5 ways to ruin your retirement...and all have nothing to do with the economy, the stock market, social security, inflation, or interest rates.  Today, I'm talking about a rather unpopular topic, especially when it comes to retirement...divorce. When you're desperate to get out of a marriage, thinking about how that can ruin your retirement isn't usually top of mind, but I wish couples in troubled marriages would more carefully consider the financial consequences of a divorce before pulling the plug.  Divorce rates among those 50 & over are skyrocketing. It's become such a noticeable trend that it even has a name - gray divorce.  The main financial problem with gray divorce is that the asset split that happens in nearly every divorce cuts your wealth in half. Research from the National Center for Family & Marriage Research found that someone getting divorced after age 50 can expect their wealth to drop by about 50%. And unlike someone who divorces in their 20s and 30s, you've nearly run out of time to make up for that lost wealth since you're so close to retirement. So unless you want to keep working until well into your 70s, it's going to be very hard to regain your lost ground.  Someone once told me that the secret to building wealth is: don't switch cars and don't switch spouses.  If you or someone you know is in a troubled marriage, I strongly urge you to work through the financial implications of a divorce and determine how your life might be made more miserable in the long run because of the devastating combination of a divorce and losing half of your assets.  That's it for today.

Families living in rural and frontier setting may live hours away from the nearest specialist and have a small pool of therapists and providers from which to choose. How can a support system and work force be formed for these families? Links to Mentioned Content: Telehealth and telepractice regulations vary by state.

MonTECH provides technology, support, and services that focus on improving the quality of life for individuals with disabilities across the state. After graduating from Gonzaga University and an early career in adult education, Molly decided to pursue occupational therapy (OT) as an avenue to help adults and children more fully participate in meaningful, necessary, and valuable activities. She received her master's degree in OT from the University of Washington in 2010 and has practiced at Providence St. Patrick Hospital in Missoula for nearly 11 years. Molly transitioned to the role of Program Director at MonTECH in April of 2020 and has carried the program forward, managing pandemic-related challenges while still meeting the evolving assistive technology needs of Montana families. In addition to her role at MonTECH, Molly is the Montana State Coordinator and OT faculty for URLEND (Utah Regional Leadership and Education in Neurodevelopmental Disabilities), a collaborative and interdisciplinary training program for students and professionals working with children with special health care needs. In April of 2021, Molly was elected as the President of the Montana Occupational Therapy Association. She is passionate about neurodevelopmental rehabilitation, building connections to provide best practices in care, and helping people achieve greater independence in all aspects of life. Understanding a work/life balance is the cornerstone of any good OT, so Molly also spends plenty of time traveling, floating down Montana rivers, and tending her community garden.  Dr. Martin Blair began his career as a special education teacher. Following that experience, he spent the next two decades at Utah's University Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities (UCEDD), the Center for Persons with Disabilities (CPD), as director of the Utah Assistive Technology Program, Chair of Utah's Interagency Outreach Training Initiative, the policy director of the National Center on Disability and Access to Education, the Associate Director of the Center for Technical Assistance for Excellence in Special Education, and the CPD's Assistant Director for Policy and Development. In these various roles he has built trusting, collaborative relationships with colleagues from a variety of disciplines in university, community, state and national circles. In 2013, Dr. Blair assumed leadership of the University of Montana Rural Institute for Inclusive Communities, Montana's UCEDD. Dr. Blair has presented over 60 papers to national and international audiences and authored dozens of professional articles. He has generated nearly $25 million in grant and contract funds to support his efforts. He currently serves as a Co-Chair of the Public Policy Committee of the Association of University Centers on Disability. Dr. Blair's work is focused on improving the quality of services and supports for individuals with disabilities and their families by working closely with trainees, Center staff, university faculty and administration, state and federal legislators and administration officials, and those who are the primary beneficiaries of the services and supports that he and his colleagues provide.

People become seriously sick, injured, or die because of conditions in buildings maintained by people doing work they shouldn't be doing. You may think it's rare, but it isn't. Look, experience doesn't necessarily mean skill. Skilled work requires education, proper training, and ongoing learning and development. A culture of learning is created by leaders who learn. In this episode, I chat with Willby Evans, Safety and Training Manager at Albuquerque Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, Inc., about how a focus on safety has increased learning and profits and saved lives. Here are some topics we highlight in the conversation: - Answering the calling to protect the public - Why experience doesn't equal skill - Leaders who set a culture of humility and learning - Willby's company's apprenticeship program - Strengthening your competitors with education Check out these resources we mentioned: - The National Center for Construction Education and Research - Leadership BS by Jeffrey Pfeiffer If you want to hear more stories from the trades, subscribe to Toolbox for the Trades onApple Podcasts,Spotify, orhere.

Everybody gets old, including your dog. That adorable little pup that grew into your constant companion may be showing signs of getting old, both physical and mental. Different breeds and sizes of dog age at different rates. A large breed like a Great Dane is considered senior at around six years old. A small dog, like a Chihuahua, for example, may not be considered old until she is seven to ten years old. The more tuned-in you are to the typical signs, the sooner you can help your dog age gracefully. Physical signs that your dog is aging Cloudy eyes or difficulty seeing: Eye cloudiness (nuclear sclerosis) can happen so gradually that you might not notice it right away. While it's a fairly common occurrence in senior dogs and doesn't affect vision, it may also be a sign of cataracts or other eye diseases, most of which are easily treatable. Your dog may also start bumping into things or have trouble locating a toy on the floor or other familiar objects. This could signal vision loss. Horrible breath: While doggie breath isn't uncommon at any age, if your dog seems to suddenly have awful breath, it could indicate gum disease, tooth decay, or infection. The immune system weakens as dogs age and they are not able to fight off infections as easily as they did when they were younger. Along with a good dental cleaning, your vet may decide to do blood work to rule out infection. Slowing down or difficulty getting around:  An older dog may have trouble with stairs, jumping into the car, or just getting up after a nap. You might notice weakness in her back legs. While we all slow down as we age, your dog's mobility issues could be caused by arthritis or another degenerative disease. Along with any medication or supplements your vet recommends, you will have to adjust your dog's exercise regimen to slower and shorter walks or a new exercise routine. Swimming, for example, is gentle on the body and many dogs love it. New lumps and bumps: Some dogs are prone to harmless fatty lipomas, but these lumps under the skin are more common as dogs age. However, any new lump should be checked by a veterinarian to rule out a malignant tumor. A change in weight: It's not surprising that older, less active dogs sometimes gain weight and you may have to adjust your dog's diet and exercise to maintain a healthy weight. However, you should also pay attention if your senior dog loses weight. This could be the result of reduced muscle mass, which is common in older dogs, or it might be caused by reduced appetite, poor absorption of nutrients, or a digestive illness. If your dog loses more than 10 percent of her body weight in a few months, or even in a year, consult your vet. Incontinence or difficulty “going:” If your dog suddenly seems to forget his housetraining or seems to strain when urinating, these could be signs of a urinary tract infection or kidney disease.  However, incontinence is not unusual in elderly dogs and there are medications that can help. Behavioral and mental signs of aging in dogs Physical changes aren't the only differences you may notice in your dog as he ages. Changes in behavior can signal an underlying physical problem or may be a normal sign of aging. For example, if your sweet pup has suddenly turned into Grumpy, she may be in pain caused by arthritis or be experiencing some other physical discomfort. Or your high-energy companion may be sleeping hours a day. Older dogs need more sleep, just let him nap. However, changes in behavior may also be the result of canine cognitive dysfunction syndrome (CCDS). According to a study at the National Center for Biotechnology Information, CCDS affects 14-35 percent of dogs over eight years old. A dementia similar to Alzheimer's in humans, CCDS can bring about pronounced changes in your dog's everyday behavior: Fear of familiar people or objects. Changes in the sleeping-waking cycle, including restlessness or pacing at night. Increased barking and vocalization. Repetitive or compulsive behaviors. Forgetting commands and cues that she once knew. House soiling. Increased anxiety. Confusion and disorientation. Marked change in activity level. Your vet will be able to make a diagnosis by asking you simple questions during the appointment. While there is no cure for CCDS, there are some new medications and therapeutic options your vet can discuss with you. How can you help your aging dog? The single most important thing you can do is check with your vet if you see any of these physical or mental changes. The vet can determine the underlying medical causes and prescribe treatments. He can also help you make some decisions about your dog's care going forward: changes in diet and exercise, changes you can make around the house, or in the daily routine. We spoke with Wendy Stevens, a former veterinary technician at VCA Alton Road Animal Hospital in Miami Beach, with 30 years experience, and she said that pet owners' greatest fear is having to make a decision about their pets' end of life, and that fear may make an owner unwilling to visit the vet. They may also not be educated about the signs of aging and take a “wait-and-see” attitude. The cost of care is also an issue for many pet owners. Our dogs give us many years of love and loyalty and it's only natural to want to make their senior years as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Aging is a normal part of life and with some vigilance and attention to your dog's health, these can truly be “golden years.” Get Your Free AKC eBook
