CW: This episode mentions pet loss and end-of-life conversations.
In this episode of Listening with Dr. Christie Long, Christie sits down with Adam Greenbaum — longtime Modern Animal member, three-time founder, and the creator of Love, Baxter. After losing his dog Baxter, Adam built a resource for pet families who are navigating senior care, end-of-life decisions, and everything that comes after.
Their conversation covers what a “good death” can look like, how communication shapes those final moments, and why veterinarians and pet parents have more to learn from each other than we often realize. It is honest, warm, and full of perspective from both sides of the exam table.
