Every so often, life, and Pax, nudge me to stop, look deeper and realize I can’t do all I want to do.
Do you know the feeling? June was one of those months.
Not because of some sort of dramatic event, but because of a the feeling that no matter how much I did, I couldn’t catch up.
It could be compared to running as fast as we can, eventually stumbling and falling on our face. So I did something I do not often enough. I stopped, packed my bag, and booked a ticket to Iceland.
I spent nine days on my own. No major plans, just deciding every day where to go and what to see. I kayaked among icebergs, hiked in a beautiful moss covered canyon, and walked through ice caves that are sitting on top of a volcano (active but not active right now).
I also did my daily swim in a public pool where to my amazement, I was often the only one in the pool.
I came back refreshed and ready to be there for you and your dogs fully. Which brings me to giving you the monthly news, in case you were busy and missed what you may want to know.
I love hearing from you and getting e-mails saying: “My dog is doing so much better than expected” or “My dog plays like a puppy again.”
If I can help you and your dog feel better and live longer, than I know it is all time well spent.

WHY DO DOGS SMELL LIKE DIRTY SOCKS?
A few days ago, a friend and her dog came to visit, and…. OMG, the smell was hard to describe, and our friend’s comment, “She is just a little smelly,” was a serious understatement.
But a smelly coat is not about hygiene.
It is reflection of the body being toxic, depleted, with poor gut health, shoddy skin microbiome, and the immune system that is out of balance. Here is all you need to know to make your dog smell like a grass meadow again:

How to help your dog move like a puppy again
We often accept stiffness, slowing down, or not being able to jump up as a part of getting older.
But most dogs can move so much better with only a few easy steps to implement. Old dogs do not need to be stiff and weak, and it is heartbreaking to see them this way. Here is more on the topic:

Why I Still Give My Own Dog, Pax, a Liver Cleanse Every Month
There is one product in my line up that keeps surprising me even several years after its introduction. Initially, I formulated LiverTune, and its human counterpart, LiverTune H+ to address liver disease and general detox.
However, with time, I started to see some very positive and desirable side-effects.
Fewer ear infections, allergy flare-ups that calm down, less nighttime panting and overheating, and grumpiness turning into happy mood!
It kind of all makes sense. There are 37,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 chemical reactions happening in your dog's body — and yours — every single second, and the liver is at the center of it all.
LiverTune helps the body clear foreign chemicals, pesticides, heavy metals, household chemicals, and less optimal food ingredients in dogs, and LiverTune H+ does the same for people. When you go to a festive dinner where the meal is delicious but a little too rich, or after a few glasses of wine, LiverTune H+ seems to reset the body’s finely tuned metabolism.
LiverTune is like the rinse cycle in the dishwasher, after which the body is “shiny and clean" again.
All the herbal and superfood ingredient go through a two-stage fermentation process I've spent years refining. We ferment the product using the beneficial Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is known to:
- lmprove the bioavailability of nutrients by inactivating anti-nutrients naturally occurring in all foods.
- Reduce the histamine levels in food, which helps dogs with allergies.
- Support immune function by containing adaptogens
- Improve the intestinal microbiome and support healthy digestion.
Every ingredient is human-grade, USDA-certified organic, and sustainably harvested — nothing sourced from China. And as always, it's packaged in glass, not plastic.
What I love the most is seeing reports from our community’s dog parents:
One dog's ALT dropped from 155 to a normal 66 after a single course; another's spiked past 1800 after steroid treatment and was back to normal within four weeks!
These are results I used to only dream of before LiverTune.
My own dog, Pax, gets a week of LiverTune every month as a preventive – not because he's sick, but because he’s healthy and I want to keep it that way.
LiverTune H+ is the same formula, same standards, just packaged for you, for exactly the same indications.
If you haven't done a liver cleanse for your dog — or yourself – this is your chance to try it with our no risk lifetime guarantee. Let me know how it goes.
