Join us for our next Canine Health Discovery Webinar as we dive into groundbreaking research on canine degenerative myelopathy (DM)—a progressive neurological disease linked to a mutation in the SOD1 gene and closely resembling ALS in humans.

Learn how researchers are uncovering early effects on proprioception, testing new treatments like riluzole, and advancing clinical trials through the collaborative Project DM platform—all with the goal of improving quality of life and longevity for affected dogs.

Definitely true 🖤🧡🤎🤍

True or False:
There are more photos of your dog on your phone than your spouse.
(We’re not judging… we’re the same way 🐶📸)

Drop a 🐾 if your camera roll is basically a dog photo album.

This!!!!

Those hovering hands?
They can cause more issues than solve.
"It worked for me"
Maybe it did.... for your individual dog and your exact circumstances but the advice of taking a bowl away and giving it back or patting a dog eating creates more issues than it prevents.

"I saw a trainer make a video and it worked for him".

Please.....I need to say this clearly, don't do it.

This is one area where following advice online does more harm than good.
They can bite.
That injury may not happen to you but to someone you love.

Puppy showing these issues?
Look to see if their food is adjusted in quantity as they grow.
Sometimes we forget just how quickly they are actually growing and how hungry they become because of that rapid growth.

Looking for more tips?
I'm really sorry..... there are none here.
This is an area that needs a thorough assessment, careful understanding and tailoring an individual plan.

There are no five minute fixes for such a complicated behaviour that affects everyone in the family.

Respect their need for space.
