I got to hang out with @macdougallthemedicalalertdog the other day and while we were catching up, I learned exactly how impactful he’s been is his partner’s day-to-day. If you remember, Mac started going to school with Cooper in the Spring and he quickly demonstrated his ability to tell whether Coop was coming really down with something, or if he just was tired or maybe missed his medication in the morning. Their mom told me last week that Cooper has attended ‼️75% MORE‼️ school than he was prior to Mac being in service with him.
That’s life-changing. Not just for Coop, but for everyone around him.

                  I had the pleasure of testing these two Great Danes for Alliance Therapy Dogs today at Park Meadows Mall. We met all kinds of people, had a nice walk around the mall, and they walked away with paperwork to become official Therapy Dogs! I know they can’t wait to get working—they’ll both be applying to be a part of the DIA CATS team. 
Way to go Rebel and Kramer!

                  In this episode, I’m sharing the story of how I went from frosting cakes to full-time dog training — following the thread of instinct, alignment, and a quiet knowing that just wouldn’t let go. From forming my first LLC to buying a property I wasn’t sure I was ready for, this one’s about engaging the universe before you’re certain… and building the kind of life that only makes sense in hindsight.

                  Some dogs are meant to walk with us for a season—and they leave a mark that never fades. 💛
In this week’s episode of Life Lessons from Dog, I’m sharing the story of Bailey—my first dog in adulthood. She came into my life during a season of healing, and though she eventually bonded most deeply with my dad, her impact on me was profound.
This episode is about healing, letting go, and the unexpected ways our dogs find the people they’re meant for.

                  if you haven’t listened to the Season 2 opener yet, it might be a good one to sit with.
It’s not polished or perfectly packaged.
It’s just me catching you up — on July, on booth chaos, on where my head’s been lately.
On how this podcast started, and how it’s quietly shifting into something a little more personal.
If you’ve ever stepped away from something you care about and then had to find your way back…
If you’ve ever felt like your to-do list drowned out your why…
Or if you’ve just been wondering what’s next around here…
This one’s for you.
