July 15, 2008 - PRLog -- Dog is man’s best friend, but when the dog ages it becomes as needy as an old human. The dog will need a special diet, aids in walking, and a new lifestyle to fit the body and mind of a senior canine.

The owner of the dog needs to adjust also. As the dog ages, the lifestyle and the activity it is involved in needs to be altered to adjust to lack of mobility, eyesight, and cognitive abilities.

Now there is a book that can help the senior dog owner help their senior dogs through their golden years. Written with love, Don & Kellie Rainwater and Gina Stewart presents, “When Your Best Friend Becomes Your Old Friend: How to Care For a Geriatric Canine.”

The new book informs the reader about the canine aging process and how the older dog needs special care and even a lifestyle change. Getting up the stairs may be hard for the dog or just the simple act of keeping up with his owner during a walk. The book lets the dog owner know how to help with hip problems and other geriatric ailments that hinder their movements.

The book even has a chapter on grief when your canine crosses Rainbow Bridge to wait for you to join them.
