Abstract
Geriatric health care remains a virtually untapped area in spite of ch anging public views and scientific knowledge on aging. The number of o lder dogs and cats will continue to grow into the next century. Owners of older dogs and cats are willing to invest in quality health care s ervices. A geriatric health care program can expand veterinary service s in a practice and is a natural extension of pediatric and adult main tenance programs.
