Dog owners love to buy things for their dogs, from products that are necessary to the fun extra stuff. So much so that pet owners spent an estimate $109.6 billion this year, if you want to see the breakdown, HERE YOU GO. It’s emotional purchases as well as functional, but safe to say, lots of…

If one deer can feed the entire family …
We have gotten so far away from the understanding of nourishing our dogs system that it’s really a great forgetting of sorts. And I don’t believe this is by accident. To be super clear, food and nutrition are not synonymous. You are either feeding your dog to fill their system, or you are nourishing their…
Yesterday I learned something new
Censorship has hit the USA … again. This seems to be part of our history when someone in power is threatened by ‘other voices’, most of the time voices of reason, voices of common sense, and voices that challenge the narrative or lies being told. Someone in power doesn’t even have to be a person…
