🐾 Understanding CBD for Anxious Dogs 🐾

Did you know that CBD can be an incredibly helpful tool for managing your dog’s anxiety naturally? 🌿 Our organic, full-spectrum CBD oil, CALM, is designed to support dogs experiencing chronic anxiety or situational stressors such as:

⚡ Thunderstorms
🎆 Fireworks
✂️ Grooming and vet visits
🚗 Travel
💔 Separation anxiety

CBD not only helps dogs stay calm during these stressful events but can also aid in reducing negative emotional responses to triggers over time. This natural solution is a holistic way to support your pup’s mental well-being, much like how it’s used for treating PTSD, panic disorders, and anxiety in people and animals alike.

💚 Help your dog live a calmer, happier life with CALM. Let’s take the stress out of life’s overwhelming moments!

🐕What Does Your Dog Need to Thrive—Not Just Survive?🐕

🥩Dogs are carnivores, which means they need a diet that’s at least 70-80% meat with minimal carbs. Adding antioxidant-rich foods can boost their health by fighting cell damage and disease🥬

The truth about kibble? It’s heavily processed, loaded with fillers like corn and soy, and stripped of real, fresh nutrients. Even replacing just 20% of your dog’s kibble with fresh foods can make a noticeable difference.

Some great additions to your dog’s bowl:
🐾 Raw or Cooked Meat
🐾 Pumpkin
🐾 Spinach
🐾 Blueberries
🐾 Cranberries
🐾 Pomegranate
🐾 Sweet Potatoes
🐾 Broccoli
🐾 Raw Eggs

🐟NUTRITION TIP OF THE DAY🐟
Omegas for Dogs: Why They’re Essential for Your Pup’s Health

Did you know your dog needs omega-3 fatty acids for optimal health but can’t produce them on their own? That’s why a balanced diet, often supplemented with omega-3s, is key to their well-being. Let’s break it down:

1. What Are Omega-3s?
Omega-3s (EPA, DHA, and even ETA) are essential fatty acids found in fish, shellfish, algae, h**p, and walnuts. Unfortunately, most commercial dog foods are overloaded with omega-6 fatty acids (think corn, soybean, and canola oil) and lack omega-3s. This imbalance can lead to health issues, but the good news is that omega-3 supplements can help!

2. What Can Omega-3s Do for Your Dog?
• Reduce Joint Inflammation: Omega-3s block enzymes that cause inflammation, reducing pain and improving mobility. ETA (found in green-lipped mussel oil) even works at the gene level to fight inflammation.
• Support Heart Health: They lower the risk of irregular heart rhythms, high cholesterol, and heart disease while promoting a healthy blood pressure.
• Boost Brain Function: Omega-3s can improve memory and cognitive function, especially in senior dogs. They’re also vital for puppies’ brain and eye development.
• Enhance Skin and Coat Health: Suffering from itchy skin, allergies, or dandruff? Omega-3s ease inflammation, reduce hot spots, and promote a shiny, healthy coat.
• Aid Chronic Disease Management: From arthritis to kidney disease, omega-3s can relieve symptoms and even slow the progression of certain cancers.

Simple Takeaway: If your dog eats kibble or canned food, they will benefit from an omega-3 supplement. By improving their omega balance, you’ll help support their immune system, joints, heart, brain, and skin.

Your pup deserves to thrive, and omegas might just be the missing piece! Have questions or need recommendations? Let us know—we’re here to help!

🐕Why Structure and Leadership Matter🐕

Millie joined our Pack Hikes recently, but her story is one many dog owners can relate to. Two years ago, Millie was one of Ashley’s training students. Fast forward to today, Millie was attending a local doggie daycare but was separated from group play due to being “too vocal and mouthy with other dogs.”

At HHH, we see behavior like this differently. Dogs need structure, rules, and leadership to thrive socially. Without these key elements, behaviors like vocalizing or excessive mouthing can escalate. However, with guidance and clear expectations, dogs can learn to coexist peacefully and enjoy being part of a group.

After just two Pack Hikes with us, Millie has been thriving. She’s now part of a well-balanced pack, exploring the great outdoors without any issues. Why? Because we focus on creating a structured environment where dogs know their place and feel secure. With leadership in place, the possibilities for fun and freedom are truly endless!

🐾 If your dog is struggling with socialization or behavior concerns, let us show you the difference leadership and training can make. Join our Training Programs or Pack Hikes and give your dog the adventure and camaraderie they deserve! 🐕

🐕🐕This rambunctious pair of Hound Mixes are Day Train students with big goals ahead! 🐕🐕

They’re working hard on:
✔️ Being calmer overall
✔️ Improving their leash manners
✔️ Mastering off-leash skills

Why? Because off-leash time is essential for every dog! 🌲🐕 Dogs thrive when they can explore, run, and play freely. It gives them the physical and mental stimulation they need, reduces stress, and lets them truly be a dog!

Every dog owner should aim for safe, off-leash adventures, and we’re helping Bodie and Birdie get there. Follow along as they work toward joining our Pack Hikes and enjoying the freedom they deserve! 💚🐶

Meet Winston!

Winston is a 1-year-old Golden Retriever who used to drag his owners all over on the leash with zero manners and zero obedience. Like many young, energetic dogs, he had no idea how to channel his energy constructively—until he joined our Day Training program!

With consistent training, Winston has made huge strides in just a short time:
• He now walks politely in a Heel, no pulling or zig-zagging.
• He knows how to Sit and Wait at doors and gates, teaching him patience and self-control.
• He’s developed great crate manners for a calm and stress-free home environment.
• He’s working on his Place command, learning to settle and relax when needed.
• And he’s almost fully off-leash for Recalls, giving him more freedom while staying safe!

Way to go, Winston! We’re so proud of his progress and the effort his family has put into his training.

Struggling with your dog’s energy or behavior? We can help! Whether it’s basic manners, leash walking, or off-leash freedom, we have the tools and techniques to transform your dog into a well-behaved companion.

📞 Give us a call today and let’s get started on your dog’s training journey!
