Episode 37: Caring for Your Senior Dog: Love, Comfort and Compassion

In this heartfelt episode, Emma and Kirsten sit down with certified dog behavior consultant and trainer Helen St. Pierre to talk about one of the most emotional — and important — chapters of life with our dogs: their senior years.

We explore how to support aging dogs as their needs change, from cognitive shifts and mobility challenges to comfort care and quality-of-life planning. Helen also helps us navigate hospice care and euthanasia with clarity and compassion, offering practical guidance for making thoughtful, loving decisions during a tender time.

This conversation is about honoring our dogs’ full journey — and showing up for them with care until the very end.
