Kristin outlines her "care quad" framework, categorizing treatment into four areas: pain management, nutrition/weight management, lifestyle/environmental modification, and rehabilitation. Kristin and Hannah emphasize that a comprehensive treatment plan requires addressing multiple areas—beyond medication alone—to ensure the dog's well-being. They also discuss the emotional impact on owners and the importance of caregiver support.
