A few days ago, someone asked me if I’m a “pet owner.”I paused. Because honestly, that word owner didn’t sit right with me.You can own a car, a phone, or a house. But can you really own a heartbeat that greets you at the door with a wagging tail? 💼 The “Owner” Way of Thinking […]

You know that moment when you walk through the door after a long day, and your dog barrels towards you like you’ve been gone for years, even though you were gone for maybe… five minutes?

Travelling with pets sounds dreamy, doesn’t it? Long drives, little adventures, wagging tails, cute Instagram stories. At least that’s what I thought before we started taking Fido (our goofy, lovable Labrador) on trips. Reality check? It’s fun — but it’s also a lot of work.

When I first thought about getting a dog, I had no idea how much of a life-changing decision it would be. Like most people, I was drawn to the cuteness of puppies and the idea of long walks with a loyal friend by my side. But I quickly learned that choosing the right dog breed […]

“When you first picture what life with a dog will be like, you might think you’re just bringing home a pet. In reality, you’re stepping into a whole new lifestyle — one filled with a unique vocabulary, daily adventures, and yes… a vet saved in your speed dial favorites.“ When I brought Fido home, I […]

(Based on my 9 years of training my Labrador, Fido) Dog training isn’t just about teaching your pup tricks — it’s about building a language between you and your dog. When done right, it’s the difference between a dog that simply “lives with you” and one that truly connects with you. I learned this the […]
