The landscape of pain awareness in the training & behavior industry has changed dramatically. 

I know it doesn't always feel like it. 

But less than 5 years ago, Pain Awareness Month was basically unheard of in our corner of the internet. Now there's pain awareness education all day, every day, 365 days a year. 

That is because of you! 

There has been no systemic support for Pain Awareness in our industry. Many vets do not value our profession. The entire change of the landscape is because of your commitment to dogs & their humans. 

I'm so fucking proud of you! 

Tag your favorite pain aware behavior professionals below!!

We love our dogs. 
 
And sometimes part of being a good guardian means doing things that feel a little silly, because it makes our dogs’ lives better. 
 
For some dogs, a stroller means they can still come along when walking the whole route is too much. 
 
They can sniff the air, watch the world, spend time with their people, and be part of the outing without being pushed past what feels comfortable. 
 
It does not have to replace movement. 
 
It can be part walk, part ride. 
 
A way to support comfort, enrichment, and connection when their body needs a little more help. 
 
Because dogs with walking limitations still deserve fresh air, joy, and adventure. 
 
And honestly? I don’t mind if my neighbors think I’m weird if “weird” means improving the lives of the pets in my care.

Little Andrew Pancakes, (LaLa,) is an adorably weird looking little critter. 
Everyone on the street yells, “what is that?!?”
“She looks like a child drew a dog, without knowing what one looks like!” “Are her parents related?”

First of all, rude. 

So, to put these baseless rumours to rest, we’ve sent in her DNA and the test results are coming soon!

It’s not about spoiling them. It’s not about laziness. 
It’s about pain, healing, and preserving quality of life. 
 
From arthritis to post-surgical recovery, many dogs can no longer enjoy long walks - but they still deserve sunshine, sniffing, and connection with the world around them. 
 
Next time you see a dog in a stroller, offer kindness. Not judgment. 
 
💬 Have you ever used a stroller for your dog? 
Share your experience - your story might help someone else feel seen.

Even if we had forever, it wouldn’t have been long enough. 

You were loved by everyone who met you, and you will be so, so, so missed. 

We hope all your friends were waiting for you,  buddy.
