Also known as cyanobacteria, deadly blue-green algae thrives in fresh bodies of water during warm weather and isn't always visible to the naked eye.

Always so much info to unload about sleep in dogs and one of the first things we target in behavior modification, along with meeting a slew of other needs to ensure a balanced and happy companion.

So many times the advice from well-meaning people is to exercise a hyper dog. But have you ever considered they might be tired? Like a toddler, dogs can be strung out and over-stimulated too.

Have you ever taken a nap and then woken up and not identified with the person you were an hour ago? Well, dogs can benefit from sleep in the same way. Whether they're cranky, hyper, frustrated, or whatever else - offering rest in a quiet and safe place might help them regulate again.

So many of the things we ask of dogs today go against their biological programming. They do a pretty darn good job of keeping up with us, but always ask yourself, "hmmm...could my dog be needing more rest?".

Rest is critical for body and brain function! And stress recovery!

Thinking about dogs today (and always) as I sit at our family's vacation home.

How we are the very closest to a dog's purpose when we are out in nature, and how most dogs these days aren't afforded freedom - and how the reality is that they can't be.

Urban sprawl, crowded areas, leash laws, fenced yards, breed discrimination. Our world was designed by us, without a regard for most of nature, including dogs.

Out here, there is none of that. Dogs explore and stay out all day. Swimming, digging, sniffing, running, rolling, chewing, shredding, chasing, catching bugs...listening half-heartedly. Happy to their core and fulfilling their ethogram with no apologies.

The secret isn't beer patios, dog-friendly restaurants, crowded festivals, busy family parties, or concrete under their paws.

I hope you slow down regularly with your dogs and take life at their own pace when you can. Get them off the beaten path and let them follow their noses; watch them and revel in their curiosity. Even the aging dog is like a child in nature.

Time is a thief but gives the gift of memories. If you're struggling with your dog right now, slow down and take a moment with them. They'll be so thankful you did.

My favorite places to look for nature are the All Trails app (free) and Sniffspot. 😊
