How should I care for my senior dog? (example: schedule regular check-ups, exercise, special diet, etc.)

Regular exams with your veterinarian are important for your senior dog. During these exams, your veterinarian may want to do bloodwork, check blood pressure, and collect urine for testing to see how your dog’s overall health is.
