As dog owners, we’re always trying to do better—training more patiently, providing the best care, and giving our dogs the happiest life possible. But sometimes, no matter how hard I try, I sometimes feel like I am coming up short. In this episode, I talk about the emotional side of dog ownership: the self-doubt, guilt, and the deep love that drives us to give our dogs the life they deserve. Being a great dog owner isn’t about how your dog's life looks on social media—it’s about showing up, trying, and loving them the best that we can.
