2nd Annual ValenTails Tea: Moving Beyond OA Pain
 

Our annual ValenTail's Tea is an opportunity to serve our community of senior dog pet parents in a fun, informative venue. Whether caregiving for one or a pack of one hundred and thirty, certain conditions are common to a senior dog's life journey.

​

Tapping into our daily caregiving experience and incorporating a medical professional perspective, our goal is to empower the pet parent with knowledge and practical ways to benefit an old friend.

This year, our topic centered around osteoarthritis and precise ways to ‘move beyond pain’ without a heavy dependence on pain pills. At LGCR, we frequently utilize the word ‘joy’ as a reference point to differentiate between 'being alive' vs. 'feeling alive'; it’s the latter of which we strive every day for our residents. 

Like humans, when dogs feel alive, they feel connected to the world, healing old hurts and rekindling life's possibilities for companionship and love.

​

We applaud ValenTail Tea pet parents. Like us, their mission is a lifelong commitment that never grows old.
