The first time I fed my dog a bone I had no idea what I was doing. I didn’t know there were certain types of bones that I shouldn’t offer, I didn’t think about the different fat content and I didn’t think I would need to teach my dog how to eat a bone! I … Read more
I’m writing with some personal news I’m excited to share: My husband and I are expecting a baby! As such, I’ll be starting maternity leave July 14th.

Is your dog’s food actually nourishing them, or are they just surviving? Many dog owners worry about whether their dogs are getting enough nutrients, and supplements often seem like a quick fix. But the real solution might start with their diet.

I believe our senior dogs deserve to age gracefully and with dignity.
Massage and Myotherapy are beneficial to all dogs, including sporting and high-performance dogs, companion dogs and working dogs.
