We all want our dogs to live long lives.

But what most of us really hope for is that they can enjoy those years.

To keep chasing the ball.
To keep climbing the hiking trail.
To keep jumping into the car.
To keep greeting us at the front door with the same enthusiasm they've always had.

That's why I spend so much time talking about muscle.

Because muscle isn't just about strength—it's about preserving the freedom to keep doing the things our dogs love.

💬 If your dog could stay strong enough to keep doing one thing for the rest of their life, what would it be?

Turns out having a private chef isn't just for humans. 😆🐾

This fresh food prep included:

🥩 5 kg topside
🥩 1.8 kg pork
❤️ 700 g lamb heart
🥬 700 g vegetables (kale, zucchini, capsicum, radish, rocket & berries)

💰 Total batch cost me: $88.97
⚖️ Made 8.2 kg of fresh base mix.
That's just $1.08 per 100 grams.

This is my base mix, so I add raw meaty bones and secreting organs separately to complete the meal plus anything else here and there.

Fresh feeding doesn't have to be complicated or expensive. Sometimes it's just about shopping smart, buying in bulk and keeping it simple.

🐾 (Chief Inspector Jax approved this batch. ✔️😂)

We often talk about preventing disease... but how often do we talk about preserving muscle?

Traditional des*xing has many important benefits, including preventing unwanted litters and reducing the risk of some reproductive diseases.

But s*x hormones also play a role in maintaining muscle, supporting metabolism and contributing to musculoskeletal health. That means muscle preservation becomes even more important throughout a des*xed dog's life.

This isn't about judging anyone's decision to des*x their dog. It's about understanding the changes that occur so we can better support our dogs through appropriate nutrition, exercise and muscle care.

In the next reel, I'll be sharing practical ways to help support muscle health

💬 I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Before today, had you ever heard about the role hormones play in maintaining muscle?

I wanted to add some natural animal fibre to the bowl, but geez those courier fees for some raw furry bits is abit extreme. 

So instead I'm trying out these slow air-dried kangaroo furry ears. 

The insoluble fiber still acts as a natural internal broom.

Since fur is fed for gut mechanics and not as a source of hydration, the air-dried option is a budget-friendly alternative.

The Lumbosacral area bears a massive load . It is highly prone to stiffness, spasms and tension. This sweet girl was in serious need of some release and was loving it.

👀 Be honest...

What body condition score would you give your dog?

1 = Very Thin
3 = Ideal
5 = Obese

Most dogs actually score higher than their owners think!

Drop your dog's number in the comments and I'll tell you what it means for their health, movement, and wellbeing.

🐾 No judgement here—just education and a bit of fun.

Let's see how many dogs are sitting at a healthy 3!

I'll go first — Meli sits around a 2–3. What score would you give your dog? 👇
