This episode celebrates senior dogs with a visit to Muttville, where an innovative cage-free shelter, dedicated veterinary care, and a passionate community are giving older dogs the opportunity to thrive. We see how Muttville prepares senior pups for adoption, from dental care and surgery to grooming and plenty of affection, while challenging the idea that older dogs are harder to adopt. Then, Amber sits down with Susanne Kogut, President of Petco Love, to discuss the evolution of animal welfare, the importance of fostering, and how communities can help more pets move from shelters into homes. Plus, Dr. Tiffany Tupler explains how understanding canine body language builds trust, Dr. Courtney Campbell shares tips for preparing your home for a new pet, Dr. Ross Henderson discusses building a lifelong partnership with your dog, and we meet more adoptable dogs from across the country.
