Join family therapists and authors Nancy Saxton-Lopez and Ken Dolan-Del Vecchio for a conversation that begins with discussion of an email from a veterinarian who recently lost her beloved dog. Nancy then introduces her newest family member and we talk about the pros, cons, and real life experiences of adopting a new animal companion shortly after loss.  

As always, we welcome your comments, questions and suggestions for future topics. Nancy can be reached at [email protected] and Ken at [email protected].
