Confusion, restlessness, sleep changes, house soiling, or increased anxiety can sometimes be signs of cognitive decline in senior dogs.

In this short video, Dr. Chelsea McGivney explains what families may notice, what these changes can mean, and why seeing these signs does not automatically mean it is time to say goodbye.

Understanding what your pet is experiencing can help you make informed decisions about their comfort, care, and next steps.

This video is part of our growing Pathway to Care educational library for families navigating their pet’s senior years.

National Grief Awareness Day
August 30, 2026

Grief can begin before a beloved pet's final goodbye.
It can follow a loss.
It can surface weeks, months, or even years later.

It can look like sadness, loneliness, anger, guilt, relief, or simply missing the familiar presence of a beloved companion.

And sometimes, it can be difficult to explain to someone who hasn't experienced the loss of a pet.

However grief shows up for you, your loss matters.

At Caring Pathways, we understand that the bond we share with our animal companions is deeply meaningful—and saying goodbye can be incredibly difficult.

Every pet’s story deserves to be heard.

If you’d like to share a few words about your beloved companion, we invite you to create a tribute in their memory. Whether you choose to share a favorite memory, a little about who they were, or simply what they meant to you, your words can be a meaningful way to honor their life and the place they held in your heart.

You can submit a tribute by visiting our website https://charlotte.caringpathways.com/submit-a-pet-tribute/
or by scanning the QR code included in your grief booklet.

Thank you for allowing us to care for your beloved companion and for trusting us to be part of their journey.

Every animal we love leaves behind a story worth remembering. 🐾

Their story lives on in the memories we hold, the routines they shaped, the laughter they brought, and the love they gave so freely.

When we’re grieving, remembering can be a meaningful part of healing. There is no timeline for grief—only the time it takes to honor a bond that mattered. 💜

A Tribute for Brandy 💜

"Thank you, Ms. Brandy, for letting me take care of you in your last 3 twilight years. I will forever miss hearing you wake me up when your food bowl is empty, or when you need extra attention. I hope you and Uncle Charlie reunite over the rainbow bridge and you can tell him about all the love and care you got in your golden years."

When a beloved pet is aging or living with serious or chronic illness, it’s natural to wonder, Are they comfortable? Am I doing enough?

In-home comfort care is designed to help answer those questions.
Comfort care, also called hospice or palliative care, focuses on your pet’s quality of life, helping ease pain and other symptoms, support mobility and nutrition, reduce anxiety, and make everyday life more comfortable.

It’s also about supporting you. A personalized comfort care plan can provide practical tools, guidance, and peace of mind as your pet’s needs change.
And perhaps most importantly, comfort care is not about giving up. It’s about giving more—more comfort, more dignity, more closeness, and more good days together.

Because when your pet is comfortable, you can spend less time worrying and more time simply being together.

Comfort is Care. Comfort is Love.💜🐾

How do you know if your pet is still enjoying life?

As our pets grow older or face a serious illness, it’s natural to begin noticing small changes and wondering what they mean. Is my pet still comfortable? Are there ways I can help? What should I be paying attention to?

An In-Home Quality of Life Assessment gives you dedicated time with one of our experienced veterinarians to talk through those questions in the comfort of your home. Together, we’ll evaluate your pet’s comfort, discuss your concerns, and help you better understand what the next step may be for your family.

Sometimes that means continuing to enjoy more good days together. Sometimes it means exploring additional comfort care options. Most importantly, it means you don’t have to navigate these decisions alone.

If you’ve been looking for guidance, we’ve recently updated our Quality of Life Assessment page with helpful information about what to expect and answers to many of the questions families commonly ask.
