Dogs play an important role in our families, so it just makes sense that as our dogs become older, we become concerned about their care and health in old age.
For this very reason, Japan opened its first nursing home for dogs in 2007 to meet the demand for nursing care for eldery dogs:

According to the Associated Press, the nursing care costs a pricey $800 per month. In return, dogs receive access to needed nursing, dietary and veterinary services.
No news yet as to whether a dog nursing home will open any time soon in the United States.
I wonder if the dogs have private or shared rooms? Hmmmmmm........
