Senior Dog Revolution Podcast

This is a special episode.

It was originally recorded as a private audio for our senior dog parent communities, Glow Together and AfterGlow, shortly after we said goodbye to our beloved Jose—just 9 days after his cancer diagnosis.

I’m sharing it with you now because the signs Jose showed were so subtle… and as both a veterinarian and a senior dog parent, I know how easy it is to miss those quiet shifts when our dogs still seem mostly okay.

This recording isn’t heavy on grief (though that’s been ever-present for us). Instead, it's meant to be practical, heartfelt, and gently eye-opening. I hope it helps you feel more aware, more equipped—and more connected.

Today, we have VetriScience supplement expert, Dr. Delomba on the show.  She answers FAQ on supplements, discusses ingredients she likes and even shares 3 of her favorite supplements on the episode!  Links to the products below:

VetriScience Composure Chews (calming)
VetriScience Golden Years Calm and Confident Chews (dementia and calming)
VetriScience Fast Balance GI Paste (diarrhea)

In this episode we discuss anticipatory grief with clinical psychologist, Dr. Katie Lawlor and veterinarian Dr. Lisa Lippman.  Anticipatory grief is so common amongst pet parents and in this episode we break it down and give some tips on how to deal with it.

This week, I have the amazing Dr. Lippman back again and we are discussing the ins and outs of senior dog diets!  Should every senior dog be on one? Tune in to hear our thoughts!

This week, we are kicking off season 2 with an amazing guest, Dr. Elizabeth Delomba from Vetriscience!  Dr. Delomba helps us discuss common challenges we have with senior dogs during the holidays as well as tips to help avoid them including some supplements we love!  Special thanks to Dr. Delomba and Vetriscience on this episode!

In this episode, we highlight what we'll be focusing on during our holiday season on the podcast.  We'll be covering 6 important topics for senior dogs and their pet parents to include Tips for Surviving the Holidays, Anticipatory Grief with Dr. Lawlor and Dr. Lippman,  Boarding Senior Pets, Coughs in Older Dogs, and why we need to pay attention and so much more!

This week we go through survey results on pet health insurance from YOUR perspective.  We surveyed hundreds of pet parents on social media and here's what they had to say. 

This week we have an amazing guest, Dr. Gamboni on to discuss pet health insurance.  Dr. Gamboni shares the journey her own senior dog Mr. Cole went through and how pet health insurance saved them tens of thousands of dollars in the end.

This week we talk about 4 things pet parents can do when they start noticing their older dog's health declining.  Life moves quickly with our senior dogs.  In our episode this week, Dr. Tarantino shares some changes she has been noticing with Becca her 16 year old labrador mix this week and what she's been doing about it.  

This week we are joined by the lovely Dr. Lisa Lippman to discuss the latest blood test called the NuQ test.  Unlike traditional bloodwork, this test CAN help detect cancer like hemangiosarcoma and lymphoma in dogs.  Listen as Dr. Tarantino and Dr. Lippman discuss how they will use it.
