To my fellow dog moms

I see you. Caring for and making impossible decisions for your senior dog.

I feel you struggle with your separation anxiety dog and the ups and downs but you don’t give up, I know there are days you want to.

I watch as you mange your reactive dog on walks beautifully when you think no one is looking and you feel like a failure for one reaction.

For my caregivers of disabled, sick, or dogs recovering from injuries - you are amazing and strong and shouldn’t need to be this resilient.

To my foster moms and shelter volunteers and workers - you are the blood, sweat and tears making a difference every day even though it doesn’t feel like it sometimes.

If you made it to today, keep going! No one made a rule book for this and we’re all doing our best.

If you relate, give me a follow so we can lift each other up!

Drop your dog’s elf name in the comments then share this in your story so we can see all of the silly names!!

Rodger and I left ours in the second slide 🎄

I’m not going to lie, I’ve been struggling this holiday season. Grief of loss, the general state of the world has been weight heavy in many of us. I want to share quality, value driven content but it seems that is falling flat and I get it, we’re all burned out. The easy laughs are what our souls need I think - mine at least.

So let’s take a breath and get goofy! Connect over something silly. Share that foster or shelter dog with an Elf name to attract new attention. Call your dog something silly for a day.

You’ve tried it all for your dog’s separation anxiety

Tell me if you relate. A bin full of toys not being played with. A dog staring at you, waiting for something to happen….

Something was missing. That key element all fluff filled dog toys need. Every. Single. Squeaker. Missing. Removed with surgical precision.

Did you know you could buy bags of squeakers? I’m not selling them I just think I’m brilliant! You can be too. These are from .

So my old man who still acts like a puppy some days will get to devour his fake prey again and I’ll put less into a landfill.

Let us know if you try it and comment one of your must have gift ideas for your dog, for others in need!

Which one do you (or does your dog) relate to the most? Find your people in the comments 😭

Separation anxiety is very stressful and challenging for everyone involved, so making light is a normal coping mechanism- it’s ok to feel silly about something so serious sometimes.

What would your dog google? Use the blank templates at the end and tag me, I’m dying to see the responses 👀

Be sure you’re following me for content from the real, human perspective of a separation anxiety expert who has a dog with separation anxiety.

This is one thing nearly every client is guilty of!!! “Testing” their dog’s anxiety over and over before getting help!

Maybe Tuesday’s aren’t anxious days? But I get it, when you’re confused and losing hope anything seems possible! But our dog’s don’t just get over it, the opposite sadly.

Separation anxiety in dogs is real. It is debilitating. It is treatable. But only if you have a plan and practice safe alone time that your dog can handle.

Let’s make a plan for your dog. My methods are not only proven they are customized to your dog, your schedule, your life.

Follow me for more tips and when you’re ready let’s chat on one of my free calls.

The glow of the camera lighting up their face as you sit in the car watching your separation anxiety dog take a well deserved nap.

Maybe you even get out of the car and take a walk. Or stop and get some take out!!

If you want to get wild you sit down for a drink or an appetizer, the danger of knowing your dog could get up any moment and start to worry. The rush of watching them look around and then rest their head down again.

It’s all possible. The dream date exists 😂😭

I dare you to follow along for more spicy, silly, separation anxiety context for you and your dog!
