I help keep your aging dog healthy! Online course: Super Senior, "the Gold in the Gray".

I'm a massive fan of cooling coats! They make a real difference for your dog in hot temperatures, as we are experiencing currently in The Netherlands. If you've never tried a cooling coat, I highly recommend giving it a go - your dog will be grateful.

Not only for older dogs who struggle with temperature regulation but also for younger ones. Fortunately, more and more types and styles are available in the market so that you can find a good fit for almost every breed. Comfort is essential, as there are so many different body types. Choose a cooling coat that fits perfectly, ensuring your dog stays comfortable and cool even on the hottest days.

If you use one, please share a picture of your dog sporting its coat!

New ones are coming regularly according to our social media. Welcome!

A few facts for you:

💻 Interesting new blogs and podcasts appear regularly on the website. The theme: everything that can be important for your (older) dog.

📝 You can also find on the website the “healthy aging” checklist with 5 things every dog owner should know.

❓You can find all the information about “The gold in gray”; the online academy with all the information for inquisitive owners of gray snouts also on the website!

Because: the first signs that your dog is no longer the youngest can sometimes catch you off guard - suddenly you can't get around the gray around the muzzle, or you see that the eyes take on a somewhat bluish haze. Someone who says of your dog during a walk, “He sure is old, isn't he?” Then shock can strike you. You have a deep emotional bond with your dog, and you want to do everything you can to make sure you still have as much time together as possible, and that that time together is as wonderful as possible. But where should you start? You can go online, but there you'll find a plethora of often conflicting opinions and tips.

Why does my dog eat grass in spring?
The good news: eating grass in spring is completely normal dog behaviour. In this blog I'll explain why many dogs do this, why you usually don't need to worry, and what you might want to watch out for.

More broccoli facts!

The main anti-cancer substance in broccoli is sulforaphane, but there is something special about this compound: it isn’t formed until the broccoli is cut into smaller pieces! Probably sulforaphane is formed as a protective mechanism: the moment the plant is eaten by insects or caterpillars, it is created, probably for the plant to be less attractive to predators - after all, it tastes bitter. If we want to take full advantage of sulforaphane's beneficial effects, we can use the following hack: cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets, and then wait at least 45 minutes before cooking it. During those 45 minutes, sulforaphane is formed in the florets. Once it is formed, it is heat stable, and you can just cook or steam the vegetable. It remains present.

By the way, that 45 minutes is a minimum; it may be much longer. What I personally do is cut my broccoli in the morning or at lunchtime, and then I leave it until use in the evening meal. Pretty convenient!

Why does my dog eat grass in spring?
As soon as spring arrives, you suddenly see it everywhere: dogs rooting around fields with their noses and selecting grass blades with careful precision. Not just casual nibbling in passing, but really searching for the right bit of green. And perhaps you've wondered why your dog does this too. Is he missing something in his diet? Doesn't he feel well? Is this normal?

You can listen my new podcast about it here:
