The top four things you can do to make your new senior dog feel at home:
1. Prepare a place all his own, perhaps a crate with the door off or a comfy dog bed in a quiet corner that he can retreat to for rest and security.
2. Make it easy for him to stay hydrated by placing sources of fresh water in a few convenient places.
3. Are you using a new name? Give attention or a treat when you say it.
4. Escort the dog to his elimination spots frequentlya minimum of four times daily.
