REVIEWS

"The Senior Dogs Project has been a strong, proactive consumer advocate, beginning with the B.A.R.K.S ("Be Aware of Rimadyl's Known Side-effects") campaign of 1998, which led to the FDA's mandate to include a Consumer Information Sheet with all prescriptions for veterinary medicines." -- Jean Townsend (who lost her senior Lab "George" to Rimadyl poisoning), former Editor, DogHealth2 Groups list

"The srdogs.com site is a great resource and one I always turn to.  So much information and so many resources -- it's everything you need in one place.  The information is especially valuable because it's based on first-hand knowledge and real-life experience." -- Angela Walker, website visitor, Brooklyn, NY

“…This is such a great website!! SO helpful and so many routes to answer any questions people might have… I learned to not let my senior get multiple vaccines in the same visit, I never knew that was a recommendation! …   the whole lifestyle page is just my favorite…”
--Cameron Donegan, Operations Manager, Peace of Mind Dog Rescue, Pacific Grove, CA

"The srdogs.com website is wonderful. There is so much timely information. The article about rabies vaccine was particularly interesting to me, as I’d been wondering about the 3-year requirement for licensing. I love the format -- it's very easy to move around. Good job!" -- Ann Nutting, website visitor, Stockton, CA
