A new peer-reviewed study published in Frontiers in Veterinary Science followed 858 senior dogs and found that dogs who regularly played, trained, hiked, swam, or participated in other activities with their owners showed fewer signs of age-related cognitive decline. The benefits appeared to go beyond exercise alone, with activities that challenged the brain and strengthened the dog-owner bond linked to healthier brain aging. Dogs that participated at least weekly tended to stay mentally sharper, while lifelong sports dogs had the lowest cognitive decline scores.
That’s important because doggy dementia is one of the most common quality-of-life issues affecting senior dogs. The takeaway? Regular play, training, enrichment, and shared adventures may help keep your dog’s mind younger for longer.

Supporting healthy aging also means protecting the joints that keep dogs active. That’s why Dr. Karen Becker formulated Mobility Matrix™ with science-backed ingredients like UC-II® undenatured type II collagen and eggshell membrane to support mobility and comfort.

Sometimes life looks like this.

Not the plans we made. Not the week we expected.

But even in the hard moments, we're reminded of what matters most: family, faith, friendship, and taking things one day at a time.

We rediscover the importance of holding on a little tighter to the people we love, extending a little more grace, and being thankful for every ordinary day.

If life feels a little out of control right now, you're not alone. We invite you to read Mama Becker's latest blog, "Out. Of. Control." Link in the comments below. ❤️

P.S. When days feel overwhelming, our pets often experience those changes right alongside us. 😿

That's why this week we're offering 15% off our Stress Bites and Stress Shaker ✨ — thoughtfully crafted with Chamomile, Rhodiola, and L-Theanine to help promote calmness and relaxation. Because every member of the family deserves a little comfort. 🐶

Offer ends Saturday, June 13 at midnight. No code needed.

Ok, so question. Wondering where everyone is at between dog owner or guardian? This is about referring to people in my upcoming books. I'm out of touch when it comes to "labels" as I address my own animals as my children. Pet parents doesn't work when I am speaking about a specific species. Thanks for the feedback! Go..

Rolling out of bed first thing in the morning, trying to get some writing done while listening to Bird song can be a bit hard with Oski and his grooming needs. He’s definitely helping me write The Herbal Cat. isn’t he precious? He’s a little toy that came to life. ❤️‍🩹 Help us let our publishers know that this Book matters by going over to the Website and joining our email list for the book. 🙏🏻

Rolling out of bed and trying to write first thing in the morning it’s hard when you have a ragdoll aka bag of pudding named Oscar. Closing in on our manuscript submission to our publishers! It would probably get done a lot quicker if Oski didn’t need to groom himself. Help our publishers know that cats matter! Join our Email list on TheHerbalCatBook Website
