🐕 10 Signs Your Dog Is Ready to Say Goodbye


plus: Can dogs sense when you're sad?
Hello Reader,

We're deep into that first real week of fall. The light is different now. Lower. Softer. And somehow it makes you notice things you maybe glossed over all summer.

This week's article is one of the hardest we've ever shared. And also one of the most necessary. Not because anything is wrong. But because knowing tends to feel better than wondering.

💡 Today’s Tip
Be mindful of acorns, chestnuts, and other nuts on the ground. They may look interesting to sniff or chew, but swallowing them can cause digestive upset or blockages. Always keep an eye out during your autumn strolls to keep your senior safe.

❤️ Why I love this recipe...

❝Rice flour makes this recipe wheat-free, which is a practical advantage for dogs with grain sensitivities, and the ingredient list is short enough that you actually know what your dog is eating. One thing parents must check carefully: the peanut butter must contain absolutely no xylitol, which is a sweetener found in some brands and is toxic to dogs. Plain, unsweetened peanut butter only. ❞

There's also a recipe for low-carb chicken biscuits in here, so at...

plus: Should your dog become a veggie? Hello Reader, Last Tuesday my pup sniffed the bowl for 10seconds, then walked away. Same kibble he's eaten for three years. You stood there holding your own dinner, half-tempted to just hand him the plate. That's the moment most senior dog parents hit. The kibble he's always loved stops interesting him, his teeth turn chewing into a chore, and by the third skipped meal, home-cooked food starts looking like the obvious answer. It isn't automatic. A plate...
