✨A short talk about nutrition

My best advice is to feed your dog real food — fresh, raw, or home-cooked. Simple and honest. Try to stay away from kibble if you can; anything made for convenience usually isn’t great for the body. You can also add fruits, vegetables, herbs, and other toppers to their meals.

This is what I feed my dogs:

NDF2
A supplement that you can mix with cooked or raw meat for a fully balanced meal.

BUDDY
A meal topper that supports your dog’s health, wellness, and longevity.

A Call to Adventure

This is what I keep reminding myself.

The first time I heard this phrase was from my mentor. He was talking about moments we often see as bad or painful—but to him, they were a call to adventure.

At the time, I couldn’t hear it. I had just lost my dad to su***de, and the last thing I wanted was to think of that as any kind of “adventure.”

But two and a half years later, I’m starting to understand what he meant.
A call to adventure is really an invitation to learn—about yourself, about others, about new skills. And within that invitation lies the chance to be of service to someone else.

Fast forward to now: my dog Buddha—the one who got me into dog training through his bites, fights, and anxiety—has advanced kidney disease. It sucks. But I’m trying to see this as another opportunity to serve him, to show up for him, and to love him through the end of his life.

Therapy always talks about reframing.
Well—here I am, reframing.

Love you Boo 🤍

As my dogs enter their senior years, I’ve been reflecting on our journey together. There’s so much I’m grateful for—and a few things I wish I’d done differently:

• More walks on a long line, giving us space to explore and adventure together

• More parallel walks, instead of on-leash greetings—allowing for gentler transitions

• More rewards through food, praise, and celebration

• More back-tying to encourage calm

• More redirection, and fewer corrections—more influencing, less control

• More advocating and protecting when they need it

• A fresh food diet from the start, to better nourish their bodies

• Regular healing sessions, to care for both their body and spirit

• Learning to groom, bathe, and handle them myself, to build deeper trust between us

• And more time in nature—a gift for them, and a grounding place for me

But maybe most of all, I’ve come to see how closely my well-being and theirs are connected. The care I offer them begins with the care I offer myself.
