Abstract
them-selves as well as other older adults. The men revealed attitudes of being sympathetic and understanding of the aging process simply as a result of aging alongside their aging dogs. A prom-inent idea that emerged was a feeling of grace toward oneself, others and their aging dogs. This study offers insight into the deeper understanding of one effect caring for older companion animals has on older adult men’s attitudes toward aging. This study provides movement toward a theory of the role of dogs in the development of older adult men’s attitudes toward aging. for
