Older dogs still need stimulation, fresh air and time with you — they just can’t always manage the distance. Here’s how to keep a senior dog’s world big even as their stamina shrinks.

Mind the joints

Soft bedding, gentle inclines and avoiding hard jumps all help. A stroller with real suspension makes the ride itself easier on aching joints.
