Being a dog parent can feel isolating at times — and I know this because I live it too. Even as a professional trainer surrounded by dogs every day, I still face the same real-life challenges you do.
Whether you’re trying to raise a puppy alongside your kids, prepare your dog for a new baby, help your pup get along with your new partner’s dog, or just want the best relationship possible with your best friend — it’s never just the picture-perfect moments we see online. There’s so much conflicting advice, guilt, and uncertainty about whether we’re doing enough.
You’re not alone in this. I want to create a supportive, judgement-free space for dog parents to come together, share struggles, and build each other up. That’s why I’m starting pack walks and decompressing sessions for dog parents who want real connection and community.
Our first one will be on July 27 on the west side of Los Angeles. All dogs are welcome — and if you have a young puppy who isn’t fully vaccinated yet, they’re encouraged to come too for safe social exposure, as long as they’re in a stroller or backpack. Please note: this is not a play date for dogs to play together — it’s about connection, community, and calm, supportive walks together.
Let’s raise our dogs and lift each other up together.
What’s something you’re struggling with right now? I’d love to hear from you below.
