Creating a Senior Dog-Friendly Home: Small Changes, Big Comfort
Watching our beloved dogs enter their golden years brings a mix of emotions. These faithful companions who once bounded up stairs and chased every squirrel now move with measured steps, their graying muzzles and gentle eyes telling stories of years filled with loyalty and love. Arthritis may stiffen their joints, their vision might become cloudy, and their hearing could diminish. These changes don't mean their quality of life has to suffer.

Mount Chiltan and the Markhor: A Wildlife Conservation Miracle in Balochistan
If someone has never seen Balochistan or does not know much about it, they might assume that this mountain is located in some remote area of the province. After all, when wildlife is disappearing across Balochistan, how could such a large number of markhors possibly exist near the province’s largest city? But Mount Chiltan is not only located next to Quetta, the capital of Balochistan the city’s population has expanded right up to its foothills. How Did the Mountain Get the Name Chiltan? It is commonly believed that a dervish once lived in this mountain with his 40 children. Because of these forty children or brothers, the mountain came to be known as “Chiltan”. This is not just hearsay; the same story is even included in school textbooks in Balochistan. However, Nazir Ahmed Kurd, who serves as Deputy Conservator of Forests at Hazarganji Chiltan National Park, disagrees with this explanation. According to him, the story about the 40 brothers is incorrect. “In fact, there are 40 different locations in this mountainous region, each with its own specific name. That is why it is called Chiltan,” he said. He added that they invite officials responsible for the education curriculum to visit and conduct proper research with them so that accurate information about the mountain’s name can be included in textbooks.

Swiss Glacier Rescue: Chihuahua Dog Leads Helicopter Team to Trapped Mountaineer
Flip is a small, energetic, and loyal Chihuahua, but he has a very big personality. These are the words Flip’s owner, Jon Goller, uses to describe his dog. Last summer, Jon Goller fell into a crevasse on a Swiss glacier. He was rescued by a helicopter—and the reason was his dog, who stayed by his side even in that terrible moment. Both Flip and Goller love the mountains and mountaineering. When Flip gets tired from walking, his owner puts him in a bag and carries him on his shoulder so they can complete the rest of the journey more quickly. They stop at several spots along the way, eat, and enjoy the surrounding scenery. Goller said, “My dog can walk 20 to 30 kilometers. Fortunately, on the day of the accident I hadn’t put him in the bag, nor was he on a leash, otherwise he might have fallen into the crevasse as well. If that had happened, the rescue teams would never have found me.” Jon is originally from the city of Plzeň in the Czech Republic and had moved to Switzerland about a month before the accident. Goller says, “My parents gave me Flip as a gift—they breed dogs. I had another dog before, but it passed away some time ago. Flip is two and a half years old, and everyone at my office likes him and plays with him. He especially loves playing in the snow.”

My Senior Dog Who Came Back
Zeus will be 12 years old in two weeks, a large American Pitbull Staffordshire Terrier ("pit mix") with the kind of gentle loyalty that caused me to underestimate his pain for far too long. For 9 months, he was quietly falling apart. The changes crept in so slowly that each one looked like simple aging, and the pattern only started to make sense when viewed in hindsight.
