#59 When Our Animal Family Members are Elderly

Join family therapists and authors Nancy Saxton-Lopez and Ken Dolan-Del Vecchio for a conversation on the challenges and special gifts that accompany caring for an elderly pet as they move toward the end of their lives.   We welcome your comments, questions and suggestions for future topics.
