There are three elderly dogs - one is blind, one is deaf, the other so far is fit and healthy. One of the dogs needs medication 3 times a day, but he takes it easily and it's not the end of the world if he misses a dose here and there. The dogs like a slow, short distance walk once a day, after dinner, so they can sniff things. There is also a 20-year-old cat that mostly lies around but also needs medication twice a day. She is trained to open her mouth and take the medicine without t...
