It's our mission to make dementia caregiving easier for families caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal dementia, lewy body dementia, vascular dementia, or any other type of dementia. We believe that in order to create a more dementia-friendly world, we must first create a caregiver-friendly world. That's why we create free educational training videos like this one so that anyone with an internet connection can get access to dementia care information.

Careblazers, have you ever wondered if your loved one with dementia can have a pet? 🐶🐱 In today's video, I dive into this heartwarming topic, inspired by my dad's secret wish for a Jack Russell Terrier. I'll share my personal journey with pets, the pros and cons of introducing a pet into your loved one's life, and the most crucial factor to consider before making this decision. Plus, I'll reveal my final choice regarding my dad and a potential pet. Tune in to find out if pets and dementia can be a match made in heaven!
