Happy National Dog Day!
It's a great day to get outside with your dog for a hike!
To let them sniff and explore their environment
I challenge everyone to learn something new about dogs today
To spend more time understanding them than expecting them to understand you
It's an awesome day to let your dog be a dog ♥️🐾

There are endless reasons to make you your priority!
How you eat and treat your body
How much time you spend in nature
How much exercise you get
How comfortable you are in your own company without needing constant distractions
Because dogs benefit from these too!
And because people tend to project their lifestyle choices and views on to their dogs I say make it an opportunity to take exceptional care of *you*!
A healthy diet
Daily exercise
Get outside
Take your dog
Know how to trust and rely on yourself 🐾♥️

Anyone who knows me knows I'm huge into health, wellness and nutrition
For humans and dogs
No dog should only be on kibble their entire life and not be active and outside daily!
We owe it to ourselves and them to truly live well ♥️🐾

The people who take the time and have the patience to work *with* their dogs, to understand them better. The people who change their *own* behavior ...
The ones who understand the science of how dogs, think learn and communicate...
The people who make the effort to learn about their dogs behavior because it could be pain or fear related ( A LOT of "behavioral problems" are because a dog is; stressed, afraid or is in pain)
The people who help their dog work through their stress and fears with compassion and science based methods

Those are real dog lovers
Reach out to a certified force free trainer for help. Its why we're here🐾♥️

I'm growing my 3rd batch of sprouts for me and Mingus
The more I learn about the power of plants in our diets, dogs, cats and humans, the more fascinating I find it♥️🐾

A beautiful urban hike this morning.
The rain made everything so lush and green!
Getting outside with Mingus is my favorite thing to do. It's how I heal and reset
Stay active with your dog
Get in nature
Need less and appreciate more♥️🐾

Mingus's breakfast this morning
Farmers Dog chicken recipe

Broccoli sprouts.
Probiotic cottage cheese
Organic blueberries

Commercial grade dog food kibble is loaded in carbohydrates
This can lead to inflammation which is the cause of many diseases and obesity
Eat real food ♥️🐾

If you truly consider yourself a " dog lover" or want your dog to have " their best life"
Let them be a dog!!
Get outside in nature daily with them
Let them roam and sniff at their own pace
Let them roll in weird stuff
Sniff p**p
Eat grass .
Observe their surroundings calmly
Resist making human assumptions about what you think they're doing and just be an observer
If you don't understand a dog behavior don't put a human meaning to it!
The better we let our dogs be dogs the better life they will have
It's being their advocate and a teu dog lover

You can't call yourself a dog lover but not know anything about dogs
You need to understand dog body language and behavior. What do different barks mean? Why do some dogs lunge and bark at other dogs?
Is there such.a thing as a dog being " protective"?
What does stress look like in a dog?
Am I changing my own behavior?
Is my dog really living their ' best life's or is it your version of a best life?
The best dog lovers will take the time to learn this and that's when you can really have that awesome relationship together ♥️🐾
