Can you think of a memory that still sends chills down your spine? Gives you goosebumps at the simple thought of it? Good or bad, some memories are etched in our and our dogs’ mind forever.
Back in 2018, Pax disappeared in the Swiss Alps.
A simple hike turned nightmare when a marmot whistle made Pax disappear for 18 hours.
The Alps may be pristine, but there a lot of cows and cow pies in the hills. My guess their smell was much stronger than our tracks so it was hard for him to find us.
We spent the day and night searching, calling his name, combing muddy trails, and it was our longest sleepless night ever.
Finally, after 18 long hours, we heard Pax howling on the other side of the valley, running as fast as he could to be reunited. When I hugged him, I had zero control over tears running down my face, and completely broke down with relief.
It was a stark reminder of how much our dogs mean to you and I, and why I am so grateful for being able to help you and your best friends.
Which brings me to this months’ recap and share what we've been up to!

Five new studies. Real data. If you've ever been made to feel like raw feeding was reckless, or need more information on how to introduce raw to your dog — this one's for you.
Best bones for dogs

If you guessed steroids, you’re correct. Learn why there’s only one instance where I would—and have had to—use them in practice, and what the real price of using them is.
More shocking research on Omega-3s
A new 2025 study of over 500,000 blood samples found that North Americans have some of the lowest omega-3 levels in the world! And yes, even dogs on a raw or cooked diet are affected by the deficiency because meat freezing and storage is enough for the Omega3’s to oxidize and deteriorate.
What I do and recommend to reduce the side-effects of living in the toxic world
I speak about this often. The first step of the Healing Cycle of any disease treatment or prevention is detox. Based on thousands of hair tests we have done, measurable heavy metal levels show up in almost every modern dog tested.
Here is what I do and you can do too.
