📣This is a great opportunity to get some background information on what is currently being done in the field of canine Aging. Currently Dr. Olby is also working on our own breed specific Cavalier Aging Study funded by the ACKCS Charitable Trust. More information on that can be found at https://cvm.ncsu.edu/clinical-trial/the-cavalier-study/

Changes in an aging dog’s behavior or thinking can be easy to dismiss as simply “getting older” — but they may be signs of Canine Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome (CCDS).

Join us for our next webinar where Dr. Natasha J. Olby and Dr. Monica Tarantino will discuss how CCDS is identified and diagnosed, including efforts to develop standardized guidelines that can improve clinical care and advance research into canine cognitive aging.
